FEATURES 

 

Merco Savory Hot Food Servers are designed to hold hot foods at proper temperature and moisture content in 
heated drawer-type compartments.  Temperature is variable from 100° - 250° F.  Warming is provided by Incolony® 
sheathed tubular heating element(s) controlled by an adjustable thermostat.  A dial thermometer is located above 
the temperature control knob and shows actual holding temperature.  The thermometer also features an exclusive 
“critical food holding zone” indicated by a green area on the dial.  This allows you to confidently maintain ideal 
temperatures for any food.  Moisture is controlled by adjustable locking vents on the face of each drawer.   

 

Heavy-duty construction is evident throughout.  Merco Savory Hot Food Servers are among the strongest in the 
industry.  Drawer carriages glide on pairs of 150 lb., rated rails with positive stops.  The drawer rails have multiple 
load supporting roller bearings and multiple aligning guide bearings to assure smooth operation even when heavily 
loaded.  Each drawer is fitted with a removable deep-drawn stainless steel pan with the largest capacity in the 
industry.  It is capable of holding a 6” deep full size pan which is easily removed by lifting straight up.  Each drawer, 
when closed, is held in place by an automatic spring latching mechanism. 

 

Frames are made from formed and welded steel.  Interiors are made from heat reflecting aluminized steel.  
Countertop and floor models have stainless steel bodies.  Built-in models have stainless steel fronts and aluminized 
steel bodies.  Merco Savory manufactures seven different Hot Food Server models.  Four are free standing and 
three are built-in.  All models have an individual temperature control and thermometer for each drawer.
