LIBERO LINE HOB INDUCTION
4.6 PERFORMANCE
Not all pans have the same performance; some pans will have the induction logo but will not perform
/ respond in a good manner.
A quick way to check if the pan is suitable for induction is to use a magnet: if it will stick to the bottom of the
pan (part in contact with the induction top) this means the pan will probably work on induction appliance oth-
erwise it will not.
In the picture 1 is an example of the power absorbed by a «bad» pan and a «good performing» pan; both pans
are suitable for induction appliances, but one pan is responding better.
To check the «performance» of pans there are TWO methods:
- checking the power absorbed (AMPS) on each generator with a current clamp, regulate the zone at
full power measure and swap pans on the same zone!; remember that there are different editions of generators
with different power output levels (refer to the §
POWER TABLE 1PH-SZ-HOB etc.) if you compare different
zones.
- use the automatic HOB function, explained at § S4, COOKING TOP COUPLING
