Features of the CF85

The Hawkmoor CF85 can be erected on site (click on the animation button at the foot of the page for an example) and be operational within a few minutes. Stowage is also rapidly achievable making the CF85 the ideal field kitchen for use under conditions where a high level of mobility is required.

Optional clip-on wind shields are available as an extra to protect the burners even from gale-force winds. When stowed for transport, the stainless steel serving table forms a lid for the main body of the unit. The support legs fold flush with the body and the assembly is held firmly closed by sturdy over-centre clips. The CF85 is extremely easy to use. No special training is required, no specialised tools and only minimal maintenance.

LPG fuel

The heat source is liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or butane, which has been found to be the most reliable fuel for use under arduous conditions. It has the many advantages of widespread availability, rapid heating without generating oily or sooty deposits; also, low maintenance, low operating costs coupled with virtually no training and extreme simplicity of use.

Powerful recessed burner stations

The Hawkmoor CF85 Field Cooking Unit is equipped with five recessed burners, one of which is rated at 15kW while the remaining four are rated at 3.5kW each. The LPG fuel is supplied from a standard cylinder. Burner control is straight forward and simple using the gas control valves adjacent to each gas connection point.
