01

Cooling is an appliance-level decision

A fan specification alone does not define cooling performance. Inlet position, outlet area, airflow path, filters, internal obstruction, cabinet volume and hot-air recirculation all change the temperature around power electronics.

02

Design for the real kitchen

Commercial equipment may operate near steam, grease, high ambient temperature and restricted clearances. The cooling path must limit contamination while remaining accessible for cleaning and service.

  • Separate cool-air inlet from hot-air exhaust
  • Prevent exhaust recirculation
  • Keep wiring and panels clear of critical airflow
  • Provide service access to fans and filters
  • Monitor coil and power-module temperature during testing
03

Test continuous and repeated duty

A short bench run may not reveal thermal accumulation. Validation should include heat-up, recovery, repeated cycles and sustained high-load operation with the appliance fully assembled.

04

Treat alarms as system evidence

Over-temperature events can come from blocked airflow, unsuitable fans, poor ducting, installation clearance, vessel mismatch or control settings. Structured operating data is more useful than replacing a board without identifying the cause.

FAQ

Common project questions

Can a commercial induction SKD platform be selected by power alone?

No. Power, voltage, cooking task, vessel, coil geometry, cooling, controls and local assembly scope need to be reviewed together.

Are detailed BOMs and drawings published online?

No. Customer-specific technical files are controlled within an active project.

Engineering note

This guide explains selection logic. Final specifications depend on the confirmed appliance, electrical supply, cookware or vessel, duty cycle and integration design.
