Gasmax GG-24LPG 2 Burner LPG Gas Griddle 610mm | 22mm Plate 66Mj

[GASMAX_MSG]

The Gasmax GG-24LPG Commercial Benchtop Two Burner LPG Griddle (610mm Wide) is a high-power flat-top cooking station engineered specifically for Australian food trucks, mobile catering trailers, regional cafes, burger bars, roadhouse diners, and commercial cooklines operating on bottled Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). Measuring 610 mm Wide x 824 mm Deep x 546 mm High and weighing a solid 80 kg, this compact 600mm-format commercial griddle features an ultra-thick 22 mm heavy-duty machined mild-steel plate powered by two independent U-shaped steel burners delivering a combined total heat output of 66 Mj/h. Designed for heavy-duty searing, burger smashing, egg frying, and continuous batch grilling, the GG-24LPG incorporates an integrated 3-sided stainless steel splash guard, heavy-duty commercial brass control valves, certified flame failure safety protection, an ergonomic front grease trough with a slide-out stainless steel oil collector drawer, and field gas conversion flexibility on a standard 3/4" rear gas connection.

Why Australian mobile caterers, commercial kitchens, and hospitality operators choose the Gasmax GG-24LPG:

• Ultra-thick 22mm heavy-duty mild-steel plate — extra-thick 22mm machined plate delivers massive thermal mass and superior heat retention, preventing cold spots and severe surface temperature drops when loading large batches of chilled burger patties, steaks, or bacon.

• Dual high-output U-shaped steel burners (66 Mj/h total) — dual steel U-burners spread heat evenly across the 610mm cooking surface to eliminate cold edges and deliver rapid thermal recovery during peak breakfast, lunch, and dinner rushes.

• Independent dual-zone temperature control — two heavy-duty commercial brass control valves allow chefs to run two distinct heat zones simultaneously, such as a high-heat searing zone alongside a gentle low-heat holding deck.

• Full thermoelectric flame failure safety system — fitted with certified flame failure safety valves that instantly isolate the LPG supply if a burner flame is accidentally extinguished by kitchen cross-drafts, wind, or boil-overs.

• Integrated 3-sided stainless steel splash guard — high stainless steel side and rear splash guards contain grease splatter and hot oil mist within the cooking zone, protecting surrounding prep benches, walls, and kitchen staff.

• Wide front grease trough & slide-out oil collector — extra-wide front perimeter channel catches cooking grease, scrapings, and oils, channelling runoff directly into a removable bottom stainless steel catchment drawer for mid-service clearing.

• Durable food-grade stainless steel body — commercial-gauge stainless steel front fascia and exterior panels resist kitchen impact, corrosive cooking salts, and grease while allowing fast wipe-downs.

• Field-convertible gas engineering — calibrated for universal LPG with the flexibility for field conversion to Natural Gas by an authorised licensed gas fitter, adapting to changing kitchen infrastructure or permanent venue relocations.

• Modular stand compatibility (GG-24-SEN) — purpose-built to fit directly on top of the matching Gasmax GG-24-SEN stainless steel stand (sold separately) to create an ergonomic, freestanding cooking suite with an undershelf.

• Heavy-duty adjustable levelling legs — sturdy threaded stainless steel legs provide precise levelling on uneven commercial kitchen benches, food trailer counters, and non-combustible cookline tables.

• Up to 4-year warranty protection — backed by an Australian 2-Year parts and labour commercial 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

To protect the seasoned cooking surface, maintain optimal heat transfer, and prolong component longevity:

1. Initial Plate Seasoning: Before initial commercial service, clean off the protective transit grease with warm water and a neutral detergent. Dry thoroughly, then apply a thin, even coat of high-smoke-point vegetable oil. Heat the griddle on low-medium until a smooth, protective non-stick patina forms across the 22mm mild-steel surface.

2. End-of-Service Plate Cleaning: At the close of trade, while the plate is still warm, scrape away excess fat, carbon, and food debris into the front trough using a heavy-duty commercial griddle scraper. Apply water or ice cubes to deglaze the warm surface, scrape residue forward into the grease channel, and finish with a light coat of clean cooking oil to prevent overnight surface oxidation and rust.

3. Oil Collector Emptying: Slide out the bottom stainless steel grease drawer at the end of each shift. Empty accumulated fats, scrapings, and oils into a designated grease disposal vessel, then wash the drawer in a commercial pot-wash sink with warm water and an approved commercial degreaser.

4. Stainless Steel Body & Splash Guard Care: Wipe down the front control panel, splash guards, and side panels using a soft microfibre cloth dampened with warm soapy water, wiping in the direction of the stainless steel grain. Avoid spraying cold water or degreasers directly onto the hot 22mm plate to prevent thermal shock and plate warping.

5. Burner Port & Aeration Inspection: Regularly inspect the dual U-shaped burner tubes and air shutters beneath the plate to ensure they are free of fallen debris, grease, or dust, maintaining clean blue, oxygen-balanced flames.

Gas Installation, Ventilation & Commissioning Notice

The Gasmax GG-24LPG is a commercial gas cooking appliance requiring certified trade installation:

1. Licensed Gas Fitter Commissioning: The unit must be installed, pressure-tested, and commissioned by an authorised, licensed gas fitter in strict compliance with current AS/NZS 5601 gas installation regulations, local council health bylaws, and manufacturer specifications. An official gas compliance certificate must be retained to validate warranty coverage.

2. Gas Supply Line & Sizing: Calibrated for universal Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and fitted with a 3/4" rear gas connection. Because the appliance draws 66 Mj/h across its dual burners, ensure LPG bottle manifolds, regulators, and pigtails maintain rated operating pressure without pressure drops when running at full capacity alongside other kitchen equipment.

3. Exhaust Extraction Requirements: Generating substantial radiant heat, grease-laden vapours, and combustion gases, the unit must be operated directly beneath an approved commercial kitchen exhaust extraction hood compliant with AS 1668.2.

4. Clearances & Bench Placement: Install the griddle on a non-combustible commercial stainless steel workbench or dedicated equipment stand (such as the GG-24-SEN). Maintain minimum clearances of at least 150 mm from combustible walls and 50 mm from non-combustible partitions.

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 substantial 80 kg net weight, 22mm steel plate thickness, and crated pallet dimensions, deliveries to residential or non-commercial addresses require a customised tail-lift freight quote. Please contact our friendly commercial sales team prior to placing your order to confirm site access details, doorway clearances (minimum 650 mm clear opening required), or to add the matching GG-24-SEN stand to your consignment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the operational advantages of a 22mm thick steel plate over standard thinner griddles?

Thinner griddle plates (e.g., 10mm to 12mm) lose heat rapidly when cold meat is applied, causing burgers and steaks to boil in their own liquids rather than sear. The dense 22mm machined mild-steel plate on the GG-24LPG provides high thermal mass, retaining heat continuously under cold food loads. This delivers a consistent crust, locks in juices, and shortens cooking cycle times.

How do the dual U-shaped burners improve cooking consistency?

Standard straight-pipe burners create localised hot stripes down the centre of the plate. The dual U-shaped burners on the GG-24LPG loop beneath the plate, providing four parallel lines of heat. This design covers a much wider surface area, eliminating cold spots and ensuring consistent cooking across the entire 610mm plate.

Can this unit be converted to run on Natural Gas?

Yes. The Gasmax GG-24LPG is engineered with field-convertible gas architecture. While supplied calibrated for bottled LPG, it can be converted to reticulated mains Natural Gas on-site by a licensed gas fitter using the appropriate injector nozzles and regulator adjustments.

What is the advantage of pairing the GG-24LPG with the GG-24-SEN stand?

The optional GG-24-SEN stainless steel stand matches the exact 610 mm x 824 mm footprint of the griddle. It positions the cooking plate at standard commercial working height while freeing up bench space and providing a lower undershelf for storing oil jugs, spatulas, and seasoning shakers.

How do I activate the 4-year warranty coverage?

The Gasmax GG-24LPG comes standard with a 2-Year commercial parts and labour warranty. Venue operators who register their purchase online with the manufacturer within 14 days of the original invoice date receive an additional 2-Year parts-only warranty extension, providing up to 4 years of comprehensive commercial protection across Australia.
