Application of commercial induction cooker

How does a commercial induction cooker work?

Commercial induction cooker as a new type of technology in the kitchen equipment industry, it breaks down the old way of cooking by cooking without physical flame. Commercial induction cookers are using the principle of electromagnetic heating to heat the food (technically is heating the container). When the high-frequency current goes through the copper coil the axial on both sides will grow up a magnetic field, and then when we put metal cookware into it, as it’s cutting alternating magnetic field lines. And that will create an eddy on the metal cookware bottom. With the eddy force, the iron molecule will start a high-speed irregular movement, molecules will hit each other and the friction between them will create heat to heat the food.

Now you get that why we said the induction cooker is heating the container but not the food. And because of that, the heat comes from the container itself means there is no heat transfer between the container and the induction cooker that make the commercial induction cooker has over twice thermal efficiency of the gas stove. And with higher thermal efficiency means using commercial induction cookers can save more energy.

The advantage of commercial induction cookers is not just that yet.

 

The advantages of commercial induction cooker

1.Safety: As we mentioned above the commercial induction cooker is pure electric drive. Without physical flame, chefs can less worry about multiple safety problems that curse by fire. And with the enclosed assemble process there will be no wire exposed outside the shell so you won’t have to worry about the leakage problem.  

2.Efficiency: High thermal efficiency is another advantage of commercial induction cookers compare to the other cookstove gas stoves or electric stoves. Commercial induction range can reach more than 95% thermal efficiency while gas stoves can only reach 50%, that’s because induction range heat comes from the cookware itself and past to the dishes directly unlike gas stoves or electric stoves that need to transport from one to another, and there is where they lose the heat. So with much higher thermal efficiency means using commercial induction cooktops can provide us more efficient cooking process.

3.Environment benefit: By using commercial induction cooktops instead of gas stoves can reduce carbon emission help with the greenhouse effect problem, and without using real flame can effectively reduce the temperature in the kitchen so it can also improve the working environment for the chefs.

4.Energy saving: In the traditional gas stoves kitchen in order to keep the temperature suitable for work usually will need to install an exhaust system or air condition. But with the commercial induction range, the air in the kitchen will be more comfortable which means we can lower the cost of the exhaust system and air condition by reducing the time of using it or install the less powerful system. The energy-saving of using commercial induction cookers also can be embodied from its efficiency, high efficiency means the short cooking time that can also save us a lot of energy cost.

5.Precise Temperature control: Commercial induction cooker has a precise temperature control function that allows chefs can set whatever temper they need precisely. Is a function that can help chefs easier to keep the dishes quality.

What is the difference between the induction range and the others?

Compare to gas ranges, the main advantage of commercial induction cookers is safety. Gas ranges use propane and other natural gas as fuel which can trigger a lot of safety problems such as gas leaks, burning issues, blazes. And Commercial induction range power by electrical only that can reduce any threat above from us.

As for the electric stove, it’s a little bit similar to the commercial induction range, it also uses a coil to heat up the surface. But the way to heat is where the difference is. The induction range is used copper coils, and the electric stove is used metal coils. Instead of creating alternating magnetic fields to make the cookware heat itself electric stove heat the surface with infrared energy. And that makes electric stoves much slower to heat up and cool down than the commercial induction range.

 

What makes commercial induction stoves so commercial?

After all the introduction above about commercial induction stoves, you should have a certain understanding of it. But you may still have some questions about the difference between commercial induction stoves and normal induction stoves for family use. Indeed, what makes commercial induction stoves so commercial?

Here are some differences between commercial induction stoves and induction stoves for home.

1.Power: Commercial induction stoves pursue high efficiency so the power is much higher than home use. Usually, the rated electric power of commercial induction stoves is 35kw, and home use induction stove can be power by household voltage 220V.

2.Function: Commercial induction stove has more functions require than home use, such as timer function, precise temperature control, none-using/operate automatic shut-down function. And some combine with two or four or even more burner, and so on.

3.Quality: Commercial induction stove products have to run through many tests, compare to home use induction stove commercial induction stove has more high anti-collision ability and durability, normally a commercial induction stove can functionally work for over 10 years.
