General Information

Food Warming with Induction
The induction coil (2) underneath the cover material (1) generates an alternating electromagnetic field
(3) that generates heat at the bottom of an inductive pot (4). The automatic dish recognition only turns
on the generator, when a pan is placed on the appliance.
Induction warming has many advantages. Here are the key ones:
• Very high effectiveness of around 95 % > high efficiency > high warming capacity > minimal power
loss
• Ready to use immediately at full power, due to the fact that electrical energy is converted instantly
into heat in the pan base – no heat-up time!
• Low energy consumption compared to electrical warming systems
• Very short boiling time with highly sensitive energy metering
• Minimal radiation of heat > lowest possible temperature in the kitchen > optimum working
environment
• Optimum hygiene and very easy cleaning
• Very low operating costs (energy, cleaning)
• Safety electronics for high operating safety (dish recognition, idle cut-out, overheat protection)
Dishes / Pots
Only use inductive market dishes/pots. If an overheating of the dish occurs, (e.g. empty dish), the
material and the thickness of the base that determine how efficiently induction power is converted into
effective heat in the dish might change. The overheating of the dishes can cause warping's of the dish
bottom plate, so warped dishes can no longer lie flat on the surface. It may not be possible to
automatically prevent the pan from overheating again to very high temperatures (potentially becoming
red-hot), which could have serious consequences for your InductWarm
scenario also for the kitchen staff.
Induction hobs are designed for a particular range of dish sizes, with which they function efficiently and
well. Dishes that are much too small being used on a large hob, may not be detected by the automatic
dish recognition and the energy supply may stay switched off. Dishes that are much too large, cannot
absorb energy from the whole base area, so it will take longer to heat up and may not reach the desired
temperature.
