Let s Change Gears Let s Talk Charbroilers!
THE WHY IN CHARBROILER HOTSPOTS THE CAMPFIRE EFFECT HEAT PLUME DRAWS HEAT TO THE CENTER Temperature profile based on ASTM 1695-96 test protocols Charbroilers are a Campfire in a Box Heat Plume shown by area of white ash = Temps over 750F
How VTEC will change your kitchen Food Quality Cooking with TRUE Infrared makes the food juicier, larger & heavier tastier! Uniform zone temperature means under/overcooked food are gone forever. Operations Cook to time! No more shell game on the charbroiler Clean-up is a breeze done in seconds, not hours! Ignition at the turn of a dial Room temperature to Ready to Cook in <20 minutes! Gas Savings Uses ½ the gas of a standard charbroiler savings you ll notice! Pays for itself in 2-years or less!* No standing pilots results in additional savings *Based on average usage of a standard 48 charbroiler versus a VTEC48. See www.vulcanequipment.com/vtec to calculate your own savings!

VTEC FAQ: Does it Brand? CHARBROIL CHARCOAL
vs. Convection VTEC COMPETITOR Convection draws moisture out of the food during the broiling process. INFRARED allows food to retain up to 20% more moisture.
VTEC FAQ: Virtually No Flare Up s IN A WORD YES. VTEC COMPETITOR This effect provides the flavor profile we crave and there are NO secondary fires either!
VTEC Charbroiler FABs FEATURE ADVANTAGE BENEFIT Independent burner boxes The most even heat distribution of any commercial charbroiler Uncompromised cooking consistency leading to satisfied customers IRX infrared burner Uses less than half the gas of a traditional charboiler Significant gas savings without affecting production True zone cooking to prevent flavor transfer and maximize productivity Stainless steel grate Dry and easy clean-up Everything that falls on the emitter panel is reduced to carbon and ash. Simply brush away the debris, resulting in increased ease of operation and labor savings Stainless steel grates are easier to clean than castiron IRX infrared burner and emitter panel design VTEC eliminates convective air which dries out product Retain 30% more of the product s original moisture, eliminating waste and increasing product yield, resulting in more profit No open flame Virtually no flare-ups Moisture and grease are immediately turned to smoky vapor that produces the charbroiled flavor Reduction in safety issues of secondary fires or hardto-manage flare-ups as caused by an open flame
