The Vulcan K40ELT K Series 40-Gallon Electric Floor-Mounted Tilting Kettle combines compact design, powerful performance, and long-lasting durability—making it an ideal choice for kitchens with big demands. Not too big and not too small, this space-saving footprint and 40-gallon true working capacity provide 50% more volume than many competing models, helping chefs cook large batches of soups, stews, sauces, and pasta with ease and efficiency.
Constructed from heavy-duty type 316 stainless steel with a type 304 stainless steel exterior, the kettle’s fully welded, 2/3 jacketed design ensures even heat distribution and dependable performance for years of service. The ellipsoidal bottom helps maintain uniform heating and easy cleaning, while embossed gallon and liter markings make measuring simple and precise.
The K40ELT’s tilting feature adds unmatched convenience—tilting forward up to 95 degrees to completely empty contents with minimal effort. Its self-locking tilt mechanism provides added safety and stability during operation, allowing for smooth, controlled pouring when serving or transferring food.
The kettle features a stainless steel enclosure that houses water-resistant controls and includes a power switch, power “on” indicator, solid-state temperature control, vacuum/pressure gauge, pressure relief valve, low-water warning light, and automatic low-water shut-off for safe and efficient operation. Rated at 50 psi for rapid steam generation, it delivers quick heat-up times and consistent cooking results.
Supported by tubular stainless steel legs with flanged feet for secure floor mounting, the Vulcan K40ELT is UL Listed and UL Classified for sanitation per ANSI/NSF Standard #4 and meets ASME code requirements.
Backed by a one-year limited parts and labour warranty, the Vulcan K40ELT delivers power, precision, and reliability—perfect for kitchens that need a high-performance kettle designed to handle heavy workloads day after day.
