Fagor Kore 700 Double Well Gas Pasta Cooker | CP-G7226 52L

[GLOBAL_MSG_2]  

The Fagor Kore 700 CP-G7226 Commercial Double Well Gas Pasta Cooker (800mm Wide) is a premium, European-manufactured boiling station engineered specifically for Australian Italian restaurants, pasta bars, hotel kitchens, institutional caterers, and high-volume commercial dining venues. Measuring 800 mm Wide x 730 mm Deep x 850 mm High and weighing 89 kg, this heavy-duty pasta cooker features twin GN 2/3 wells offering a combined 52-litre cooking capacity (26 litres per well), supplied standard with four 1/3-size portion baskets. Precision-crafted in Spain with 1.5mm AISI-304 stainless steel surface tops, robotically welded seamless joints, and high-grade 1.5mm AISI-316L acid-resistant stainless steel wells, the CP-G7226 pairs external combustion chamber burners with automated solenoid water filling, IPX5 washdown water protection, and an automatic dry-boil safety cut-off to deliver continuous, reliable al dente results across peak trading shifts.

Why Australian commercial kitchens choose the Fagor Kore 700 CP-G7226:

• Made in Spain with superior European engineering — manufactured to exacting European standards featuring laser-cut joints, automated robotic seam welding, polished finishes, and hidden fixings for maximum aesthetic refinement and kitchen durability.

• Corrosion-proof 1.5mm AISI-316L stainless steel wells — low-carbon marine/chemical-grade 316L stainless steel tanks provide exceptional resistance against pitting, crevice attack, and stress corrosion caused by boiling salted water and acidic cooking liquids.

• Dual GN 2/3 high-capacity wells (52L total capacity) — two independent 26-litre wells allow kitchens to maintain two distinct water baths, perfect for cooking different pasta shapes simultaneously or isolating gluten-free cooking water from conventional wheat pasta.

• High-efficiency external stainless steel burner system — powerful burners mounted outside the wells radiate thermal energy through a specialized combustion chamber across the base and lower sides of each well, keeping heating surfaces free of submerged obstructions for effortless cleaning.

• Automated dual-speed solenoid water filling — front-mounted two-position selector switch controls an integrated inlet solenoid valve, offering both medium top-up flow and high-speed bulk filling to minimise downtime.

• Advanced dry-boil safety protection — automated thermal monitoring system immediately stops the electrical control current and cuts gas delivery if water drops below the safe operating level, preventing element and tank burnout.

• IPX5 water protection rating — certified IPX5-grade water ingress protection shields internal electrical spark igniters, switches, and wiring against high-pressure kitchen cleaning wash-downs.

• Standard 4-basket configuration — supplied complete with four durable 1/3-size perforated stainless steel baskets, accommodating high-volume multi-order portion cooking with versatile basket arrangement options.

• Extended 4-year commercial warranty — backed by a standard 2-Year commercial parts and labour warranty, extendable to an additional 2-Year parts-only warranty upon product registration within 14 days of invoice.

Technical Specifications

Daily Care, Maintenance & End-of-Shift Sanitisation

1. Never Operate Wells Dry: Ensure both 26L wells are filled above the minimum level indicator before igniting the burners. The automated safety cut-off will engage if water is depleted, but operating dry can cause unnecessary thermal stress to the chassis.

2. Utilise the Integrated Water Fill & Overflow: Use the two-position solenoid switch on "High-Speed" for initial morning filling, and switch to "Average" to maintain water levels during service. Allow surface starches to skim naturally into the safety overflow drain to keep water clean and prevent starchy boil overs.

3. End-of-Service Draining: Turn off the burners and allow water to cool down to a safe handling temperature. Open the mechanical ball valves located behind the front door to discharge water completely into an approved drainage tundish or floor waste.

4. Tank Cleaning & Salting Best Practices: Never deposit dry rock salt or fine table salt directly onto the dry base of the tank. Always dissolve salt into boiling water to prevent localized chloride pitting. Because the burners are external, the smooth internal AISI-316L wells wipe clean effortlessly using warm soapy water and a soft non-scratch sponge.

5. Periodic Descaling: Mineral limescale deposits will accumulate on the well walls over time. Descale both wells every 2 to 4 weeks using an approved food-grade commercial descaling chemical to maintain efficient thermal transfer and protect water-level sensors.

Gas, Plumbing & Electrical Installation Notice

The Fagor Kore 700 CP-G7226 is an advanced European commercial appliance requiring trade installation:

1. Licensed Gas Fitter & Plumber Installation: Must be installed, connected, and commissioned by an authorised licensed gas fitter and licensed plumber in compliance with AS/NZS 5601 gas installation regulations, AS/NZS 3500 plumbing standards, and local council trade-waste bylaws. A gas compliance certificate must be retained to maintain warranty validity.

2. Gas Connection & Commissioning: Connect to a dedicated gas supply line fitted with an accessible isolation valve. Specify whether your site requires Natural Gas or LPG at the time of ordering to ensure the correct factory burner jets and gas pressure regulator are supplied.

3. Water Supply & Drainage: Requires connection to a potable cold water supply line to operate the internal filling solenoids. The high-temperature mechanical drain valves must discharge indirectly into an approved commercial floor waste or tundish connected to a commercial grease arrestor.

4. Electrical Auxiliary Connection: The electronic spark ignition and water inlet solenoid valves require a standard Australian 230V 50/60Hz single-phase electrical supply (drawing just 100W / 2A), fitted with a standard 10 Amp plug.

5. Extraction Canopy: Must be positioned directly beneath a commercial kitchen exhaust hood compliant with AS 1668.2 to extract steam and gas combustion by-products.

Freight & Delivery Notice

Standard commercial freight delivery is available across Australia to commercial business addresses with level ground access or loading docks. Due to the unit's 89 kg net weight and palletised crated dimensions, deliveries to residential or non-commercial addresses require a customised tail-lift freight quote. Please contact our friendly commercial sales team prior to ordering to verify site access, delivery doorway clearances, and your required gas specification (Natural Gas or LPG).

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes AISI-316L stainless steel better for pasta cooking than standard 304?

Commercial pasta cooking involves boiling water with high concentrations of added salt (sodium chloride). Standard 304 stainless steel is prone to pitting corrosion and microscopic stress cracking when exposed to hot chloride solutions over long periods. AISI-316L is a low-carbon, molybdenum-bearing stainless steel alloy specifically developed to withstand high-salinity boiling water and harsh food acids without corroding.

What is the advantage of external burners over internal submerged heating tubes?

Traditional gas pasta cookers often have heat exchanger tubes running through the inside of the water tank, which accumulate scale, trap starchy debris, and are difficult to scrub clean. The Fagor CP-G7226 features external burners that heat the base and sides from an exterior combustion chamber, leaving the interior well completely smooth, hygienic, and easy to wipe out.

Can different basket layouts be used in this cooker?

Yes. While the unit comes standard with four 1/3-size baskets (two per well), the GN 2/3 well dimensions allow for flexible modular basket configurations. Depending on your menu workflow, you can fit combinations of 1/6-size individual portion baskets, 1/2-size baskets, or full-well bulk baskets (available as optional accessories).

Why does this gas cooker require an electrical connection?

The CP-G7226 utilizes an auxiliary 230V single-phase electrical supply (drawing a minimal 100W / 2A via a standard 10A plug) to power the electronic spark ignition system, the automated two-speed water filling solenoid valve, and the low-water safety cut-off sensor.

How does the 4-year warranty coverage work?

The Fagor Kore 700 CP-G7226 comes standard with a 2-Year commercial parts and labour warranty. Venue operators who register their equipment online with the manufacturer within 14 days of the invoice date receive an additional 2-Year parts-only warranty extension, providing up to 4 years of total warranty protection.
