FAGOR Electric Boiling Kettle 300 L with Indirect Pressure Heating

This boiling kettle uses indirect pressure heating to cook large volumes efficiently. Heat is transferred through a double-walled jacket, preventing direct contact with heating elements and ensuring even temperature distribution.

The autoclave-style lid seals with a silicone gasket to retain pressure during operation. A manometer displays internal pressure, while a safety valve releases excess steam automatically. An automatic paddle system stirs the contents at adjustable speeds, with the option to reverse direction. A front drain tap, fitted with an insulated handle, allows controlled emptying through a removable filter.

The inner vat is constructed from AISI 316 stainless steel, resistant to acidic ingredients. The outer jacket and lid use AISI 304 stainless steel. The unit stands on adjustable legs, with a satin-finish worktop and matching outer panels. High-density ceramic fibre insulation minimises heat loss, and a removable inner lining provides access for maintenance.

Controls include an electronic temperature regulator for the 50–120 °C range, a cooking timer, and a safety thermostat to prevent overheating or dry operation. A pressure switch, safety valve, and manometer maintain safe operating conditions. The kettle requires a three-phase 400 V supply, suitable for commercial kitchens.

With a 300 L capacity, it supports large-scale production of soups, stocks, or sauces. The unit weighs 170 kg and measures 1320 x 1200 x 950 mm, requiring a fixed floor position. Adjustable legs accommodate uneven surfaces, and the satin-finish stainless steel resists daily wear.

Cleaning involves removing the drain filter, stirring paddles, and inner lining to access heating elements. The ceramic fibre insulation dries quickly after wiping. Regular checks of the lid gasket and safety valve are recommended to ensure proper function.

The FAGOR MCIE-300 A M is designed for professional use with indirect electric heating.
