ADVANCED STRUCTURAL DESIGN, SAFETY ENSURED
1. Lid Safety Guard:
The lid will detect if there is pressure inside the cooker. If it detects a high level of
pressure then the lid will lock and prevent opening.
2. Micro Switch:
If the lid is not properly secured, a micro switch on the pressure cooker will detect this and
prevent the cooker from working.
3. Pressure Switch:
Should the inner pressure become higher than that of the preset pressure value then the
pressure switch will activate so as to stop the unit from heating. Heating will then be
restored when the pressure decreases and is below the preset pressure value.
4. Pressure Limiting Device:
Should the pressure controlling device malfunction and approaches the maximum allowed
pressure threshold then the pressure limiting valve will release steam in the cooker to
maintain the correct pressure allowed.
5. Pressure Discharging Device:
Should the Pressure Limiting Device malfunction then the pressure in the cooker will rise
until the maximum allowable threshold. In this instance, the Pressure Discharging Device
will function and begin to discharge the pressurised steam from around the lid.
6. Temperature Limiting Device:
If the cooker is empty or reaching a threshold temperature then the Temperature Limiting
Device will automatically turn off the power supply.
7. Threshold Temperature Safety Device:
Should the co
oker’s inner temperature reach the maximum allowable threshold
temperature then the power supply will automatically be turned off.
8. Anti-blockage Valve Filter:
The Anti-blockage Valve Filter helps to prevent the pressure limiting valve from clogging.
