FAQ
Is the VE40 12 kW or 16 kW?
The sheet rates the VE40 at 16 kW, with 46, 46 and 42 A on the three lines at 208 V, 3 phase. The VE30 is the 12 kW model, so a supply sized for it will not suit the VE40.
Is the Vulcan VE40 spec sheet available?
Yes. The official Vulcan VE series electric tilting braising pan spec sheet is in the download section below. It lists capacities, electrical loads at each voltage, options and installation dimensions.
Can the VE series run on single phase?
Yes. It ships wired for 208/3 and can be field converted to 208/1; the sheet also describes a 240 V, 3 phase configuration that converts to single phase, and a 480 V, 3 phase option.
