With the continuous advancement of technology in the catering industry, more and more commercial kitchens have begun to use commercial electric ceramic infrared cookers. This equipment has gradually become an important kitchen equipment in commercial places such as hotels and restaurants due to its efficient heating and energy-saving and environmentally friendly characteristics. However, although electric ceramic cookers are safer than traditional open flame equipment, some safety tips should still be taken into consideration when using them to ensure the smooth operation of the kitchen and the safety of personnel.
1. Correctly choose the right pots and pans
The heating method of electric ceramic infrared cookers is different from that of induction cookers. It heats the ceramic surface through infrared rays and then transmits them to the pots and pans, so pots and pans of almost any material can be used. However, the flat bottom design of the pot is crucial. To ensure uniform heating and stability, using a flat pan can effectively avoid tilting or instability of the pot and reduce the risk of scalding or overturning food.
In addition, damaged pots and pans should be avoided, especially those with uneven bottoms. This type of pot not only heats unevenly, but may also scratch the ceramic surface, affecting the life and safety of the stove.
2. Prevent high-temperature burns
The working principle of the electric ceramic infrared stove is to heat the ceramic surface, so after heating, the ceramic panel will maintain a high temperature for a certain period of time. Users must be careful to touch the surface of the stove during and after cooking to prevent accidental burns.
In the kitchen environment, when multiple chefs collaborate, they should ensure that the space around the stove is not piled up with debris to reduce the possibility of collision or accidental contact with the hot stove surface. In addition, the residual heat of the stove can be used to continue heating food after heating, which can save energy and prevent burns caused by careless residual heat during operation.
3. Pay attention to ventilation and heat dissipation
Although the commercial electric ceramic infrared cooker does not require a special exhaust system like traditional gas stoves, it still generates a certain amount of heat when cooking at high temperatures. Therefore, the ventilation system in the kitchen needs to be kept good to ensure that the heat around the stove does not accumulate excessively.
At the same time, commercial electric ceramic stoves are usually more powerful and have higher heat dissipation requirements. When installing the equipment, make sure the stove is placed on a stable surface and maintain good heat dissipation space. Do not place the stove close to the wall or flammable materials to avoid safety hazards.
4. Avoid liquid spills and accumulation of items
The surface of the commercial electric ceramic infrared cooker is smooth and easy to clean, but this also means that users need to be extra careful when cooking to avoid liquid spills. If liquids such as water, oil, etc. overflow and contact the heated ceramic surface, it may cause cracks in the glass ceramic panel and affect the performance of the equipment.
In addition, piling up too many items (such as paper, rags, etc.) around the stove may also pose a safety risk. Keeping the work surface clean and ensuring that there are no flammable objects around the stove is an important part of safe operation.
5. Regular inspection and maintenance
Although the commercial electric ceramic infrared cooker is designed to be sturdy and durable, regular inspection and maintenance cannot be ignored. Check the power cord and socket regularly to ensure that there is no damage or looseness to prevent fire or short circuit caused by circuit problems.
At the same time, clean the surface of the stove regularly to avoid accumulation of food residues or oil stains to ensure the heating effect and service life of the stove. If the ceramic panel of the stove is found to be cracked or damaged, it is recommended to replace or repair it in time to avoid affecting the cooking effect and safety.
6. Power-off operation and emergency treatment
After cooking, be sure to turn off the power of the commercial electric ceramic infrared cooker and clean or perform other operations after the power supply has completely cooled down. To avoid electrical accidents, the stove should be connected to an appropriate power socket and avoid using inferior or mismatched power cords.
In an emergency, if overheating or malfunction occurs, the power should be cut off immediately and a professional should be contacted for inspection and repair. Never disassemble the equipment by yourself.
In short, the commercial commercial electric ceramic infrared cooker is an efficient and safe kitchen equipment, but in order to ensure the safe operation of the kitchen, users must strictly abide by the operating specifications. Correct selection of pots, prevention of scalding, good ventilation and heat dissipation, avoidance of liquid spillage, and regular maintenance are all key measures to ensure the safe operation of the electric ceramic stove. Through correct use, the kitchen can not only improve work efficiency, but also reduce safety hazards and provide customers with higher quality catering services.
