The unit accommodates a 12-inch diameter platter, has a backlit LED display, interior oven light, three customizable key beep volumes, and is ETL-Sanitation certified for direct food-contact commercial service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EMW-1000ST is the touch-control sibling of the dial-operated EMW-1000SD and runs on the same 120V\/15A circuit with NEMA 5-15P plug. With 1450 watts input power producing 1000 watts of microwave output, it sits in the medium-duty category alongside the Sharp R-21LVF and R-21LTF touchpad units and the Amana RCS10TS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EMW-1000ST is cULus listed and ETL-Sanitation certified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBest Use Cases for the EMW-1000ST\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoffee shops and cafes with multiple menu items needing dedicated preset buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConvenience stores with hot-case service and repeatable cook programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHotel breakfast bars and room service pantries with menu programming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBar and tavern food service with consistent re-thermalization presets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHealthcare patient floors and senior living common-area pantries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffice cafeterias and corporate break rooms with light commercial duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcession stands at smaller venues with repeatable single-portion items\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-of-house re-thermalization at restaurants with NSF-equivalent sanitation requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCatering staging stations re-thermalizing pre-portioned items consistently\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperations that want one programmed cook button per menu item for staff consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMotor-Driven Bottom Antenna\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe EMW-1000ST uses a motor-driven bottom antenna instead of a turntable or a fixed-position ceramic plate. The rotating antenna under the cavity floor stirs the microwave energy as it enters the cavity, distributing heat evenly across the entire 12-inch platter without rotating the food. This design is more durable than a residential turntable, easier to clean (no removable glass plate or bearing ring), and accommodates rectangular pans and oversized platters that a turntable cannot rotate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor-driven antenna is the same general design approach as the stirrer fan found on heavy-duty commercial units, applied at the medium-duty wattage tier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTouch Control with Programmable Functions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe touch control panel lets staff program preset cook times and start cycles with a single button press per menu item. Three customizable key beep volumes let the unit fit into quiet front-of-house service stations as well as noisy production lines. The backlit LED display shows time and program selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the simplest possible training profile with no programming, see the EMW-1000SD dial-control sibling, which shares the same chassis and cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e0.9 Cubic Foot Cavity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 0.9 cu ft stainless steel cavity accommodates a 12-inch diameter platter, half-size and quarter-size hotel pans, salad bowls, and to-go containers.

EMW-1800AT is 1800W on 208\/230V\/18A NEMA 6-20P (heavy-duty plug) and is stackable. Choose EMW-1000ST for any 120V station. Step up to EMW-1800AT when 208\/230V is available and faster cook times or stacking matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparison to Sharp R-21LVF and R-21LTF (Medium-Duty Touchpad)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll three are 1000W medium-duty touchpad commercial microwaves on 120V\/15A NEMA 5-15P.
