Pull down heat lamp black 270mm Round HYWBL08

This pull-down heat lamp has a 270 mm round black shade on an adjustable drop, extending from 600 mm to 1500 mm so it can be set at the right height over a pass, buffet or carvery. An on/off switch sits on the shade itself, and it runs at 250 W from a standard 240 V supply. Important: heat lamps must be installed by a certified electrician — failure to do so will void the warranty.

Why operators choose the HYWBL08

• Drop adjustable 600-1500 mm — set the lamp at the right height above a pass, buffet or carvery instead of accepting a fixed drop
• 250 W shatterproof heat lamp included — the lamp is in the box, and shatterproof construction is the appropriate choice above food
• On/off switch on the shade — the control is where the operator already is, rather than on a distant wall switch
• 270 mm round black shade — directs heat down onto the plate and suits a front-of-house finish
• 2 kg unit weight — light enough for a straightforward overhead installation by an electrician
• 250 W on a 10 A supply — a low electrical load for holding a single plating or carving position
• Single-position focus — concentrates heat where plates actually sit rather than heating a whole counter run
• Certified electrical installation — the fixed installation is done properly by a licensed electrician, which is also what keeps the warranty intact

Specifications

Venue suitability

This heat lamp suits restaurants, hotels, function venues, carveries and buffet lines needing a single heated plating or carving position. Because it is a fixed overhead installation requiring a certified electrician, settle its position with the pass layout finalised rather than planning to move it later.

Installation & delivery

Heat lamps must be installed by a certified electrician. Installing it any other way will void the warranty. This is a fixed overhead electrical installation, so confirm the mounting point will carry the unit and set the drop — anywhere between 600 mm and 1500 mm — to clear staff working beneath it. The lamp runs at 250 W on a standard 240 V, 10 A supply. Dispatched from our Sydney HQ with partner warehouses in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth for faster delivery Australia-wide. Backed by a 12-month return-to-base warranty — the unit is returned for service rather than attended on site. See our warranty information page for full terms.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Can I install this heat lamp myself? A: No. Benchstar states that heating lamps need to be installed by a certified electrician, and that failure to do so will void your warranty. This is a fixed overhead electrical installation.

Q: What happens to the warranty if it is not professionally installed? A: The warranty is voided. The manufacturer's condition is explicit: installation by a certified electrician is required for the warranty to remain valid.

Q: Is the heat lamp itself included? A: Yes. A 250W shatterproof heat lamp is supplied with the unit.

Q: How far down does it extend? A: The drop is adjustable from 600mm to 1500mm, so the lamp can be set at a workable height above a pass, buffet or carvery.

Q: Where is the on/off switch? A: On the lamp shade itself, so the control is at the point of use rather than on a remote wall switch.

Q: What warranty applies? A: Twelve months, return to base. The unit is returned for service rather than a technician attending on site — reasonable on a benchtop appliance you can transport, but worth factoring into downtime planning.
