> Model clarification: The American Range branding and 48-inch configuration are visible, but the manufacturer data plate is not shown. The exact model and gas type should be confirmed before publication. The unit resembles an older American Range 48-inch countertop radiant charbroiler; it should not be assigned a specific model number without the data plate.
Condition
Used – Good Condition – Fully Tested & Operational
This American Range commercial radiant charbroiler has been professionally inspected and tested to confirm proper burner ignition, pilot operation, manual gas-control response, heat distribution, and general cooking performance.
The stainless steel exterior, cast-iron cooking grates, burner area, control knobs, landing ledge, and grease-management components show visible scratches, scuffs, grease residue, heat discoloration, oxidation, and other cosmetic signs consistent with previous commercial restaurant use.
The cast-iron grates show normal seasoning and heat-related wear. The foil visible beneath the control area is not an original permanent component and should be removed during final cleaning.
These cosmetic imperfections do not affect the charbroiler’s intended commercial cooking function. Please review the supplied photo carefully for the exact physical condition.
Description
This American Range 48-inch commercial radiant charbroiler is designed for high-volume grilling in restaurants, steakhouses, burger restaurants, hotels, catering kitchens, commissaries, and other demanding foodservice environments.
The unit uses gas burners positioned beneath heavy-duty radiant components and cast-iron cooking grates. The radiants absorb and redistribute burner heat across the cooking surface, helping create the intense temperatures needed for searing, browning, and producing traditional charbroiled flavor.
Six front-mounted manual control knobs allow the operator to manage multiple cooking zones independently. This makes it possible to prepare different foods simultaneously or establish hotter and cooler sections across the broiling surface.
The reversible cast-iron grates provide durable support for steaks, burgers, chicken, seafood, vegetables, and other grilled products. Their angled design helps direct grease away from food while creating distinctive grill marks.
American Range’s current radiant charbroiler line uses heavy-duty cast-iron radiants, reversible grates, multiple cooking-height positions, stainless steel exterior construction, and removable grease pans for easier cleaning.

The six manual controls allow operators to:
Create separate high- and medium-heat zones
Reduce unused sections during slower service
Cook different foods simultaneously
Manage flare-ups more effectively
Maintain a dedicated finishing zone
Adjust output according to product thickness
American Range’s current radiant-charbroiler design provides two grate positions and reversible cast-iron grates.
