INDUCTIVE HEATING PRINCIPLE
- Inductive heating of cookware is carried out by an alternating electromagnetic field, so the cookware used must have magnetic properties (Fig. 1).
- The induction coil located in the body of the electric cooker creates an alternating magnetic field that heats the cookware standing on the hob.
- If you remove the cookware from the cooker, the magnetic field will be broken and the hob will cool down quickly.
- When the cookware heats up during the cooker operation, you will hear particular noises:
- low sound similar to transformer humming;
- humming if you put empty cookware on the hob;
- slight crackling;
- noise of an operating fan;
- These operating noises disappear or change their strength with changes in heating temperature, power, type of cookware, filling the cookware with food, etc. These noises are normal and are not covered by warranty.
- The induction cooker saves a lot of energy, because it has a high efficiency of more than 90%, compared with: – gas stove – about 65%, glass ceramic cookers – 60%, regular electric stoves with cast iron burners – no more that 50%.
COOKWARE FOR USE
Compatible cookware (Fig. 2)
- Compatible cookware for induction cookers is the cookware, the bottom of which has magnetic properties, which you can check with a magnet.
- Bottom of such cookware must be flat.
- The diameter of the bottom should be 12-26 cm. Non-compatible cookware (Fig. 3).
- Cookware made of non-magnetic material such as glass, ceramic, copper, aluminum and other non-magnetic materials, as well as some types of stainless steel cookware is not compatible with induction cookers.
- Cookware with a spherical, convex or concave bottom, as well as cookware with a bottom diameter of less than 12 cm is not suitable.
Note: If your cookware is not compatible with the induction cooker, you can use a special adapter (not included) for induction cookers and place the cookware on it, but keep in mind that in this case the efficiency of the induction cooker is reduced.
