Benchstar NP-2SL Electrical Super Steamer – 672 × 650 × 420 mm

The Benchstar NP-2SL is an electric steamer for commercial kitchens planning timed steam cooking. Four preset menus, delayed cooking and automatic keep-warm support the cooking routine, with a 240 V, 4.4 kW / 20 A electrical requirement.

Consider the NP-2SL for kitchens that want a dedicated steam-cooking chamber with preset menus and timed operation. Its stackable, modular design gives kitchens a way to plan multiple units vertically, while automatic water refilling and an electric wastewater valve support the daily operating routine.

• Kitchens preparing food in batches that fit the 350 × 548 × 177 mm cooking chamber.
• Teams wanting four preset menus, delayed cooking and automatic keep-warm after cooking.
• Kitchens planning a modular steam-cooking station with a suitable electrical supply, water connection and wastewater route.

• Choose a steamer display cabinet, such as the Benchstar MME-600H-S, when displaying steamed food is the main job.
• Choose a dedicated fried dumpling and bun machine, such as the Benchstar NPD-1, when pan-fried preparation is the required cooking method.
• Choose a steamer with a larger chamber if your food or containers exceed the NP-2SL's 350 × 548 × 177 mm internal space.

Start with the food and containers you plan to steam. Check their width, depth and loaded height against the 350 × 548 × 177 mm chamber before choosing this model.

Match the controls to the kitchen's routine: four preset menus, delayed cooking and automatic keep-warm provide different ways to organise batches. Set cooking times and holding procedures around the food being prepared.

Plan the installation as a cooking station: allow for the machine, access for cleaning and service, a suitable 20 A electrical supply, water inlet and wastewater outlet. For a stacked arrangement, check the installation provisions before finalising the layout.

• Four preset menus, a timer and delayed cooking support planned cooking cycles.
• Automatic keep-warm provides a holding mode after cooking.
• Automatic water refilling and an electric drain valve support water management.
• Stackable construction offers a way to use vertical kitchen space.

• The 240 V, 4.4 kW / 20 A electrical requirement needs a suitable supply.
• The 177 mm chamber height limits the height of food and containers.
• Water refilling and wastewater discharge require suitable installation connections.
• Scale cleaning requires the operator to add a specific detergent.

• Benchstar MME-600H-S Heavy Duty Electric steamer display cabinet 1.2kw: The Benchstar MME-600H-S is a 240 V, 1.2 kW steamer display cabinet, whereas the NP-2SL is a 4.4 kW steam-cooking unit with four preset menus and a maximum temperature of 130°C.
• Benchstar NPD-1 Automatic Single Pan Fried Dumplings/Buns Machine: The Benchstar NPD-1 is a 3 kW automatic single-pan fried dumpling and bun machine, offering a different cooking method from the NP-2SL's 4.4 kW steam chamber.

• Electrical supply. Arrange a supply suitable for 240 V, single-phase operation at 4.4 kW / 20 A. Check the electrical installation before positioning the steamer.
• Space and access. Plan for a 672 × 705 × 450 mm body, with access for operation, cleaning and servicing. Check the delivery route against the packed dimensions of 740 × 730 × 480 mm.
• Water and wastewater. Provide for the G3/4 water inlet and G1 water outlet. Include the daily startup discharge in the wastewater plan.
• Stacking and handling. Check the support and installation arrangement before stacking units. Plan handling and positioning around the 53 kg net weight.
• Routine care. Follow the operating instructions for commissioning, cleaning and maintenance. Include the specified scale-cleaning detergent and access to the water and drain connections in the daily care plan.
