Boilers used in restaurant equipment are powered by gas or electricity and come in a variety of sizes and capacities to suit different operating requirements. They play an important role in many commercial kitchens providing:
Cooking - Boilers are be used to heat water or other liquids to cook food, such as pasta or vegetables.
Steaming - Boilers are used to generate steam for cooking vegetables and seafood. Espresso machines: Boilers are used in espresso machines to heat water to the optimal brewing temperature.
Cleaning - Boilers are used to heat water in dish washing equipment, steam cleaning and sanitizing machines, and for general disinfecting purposes.
A heating element converts electrical energy into heat through the process of Joule heating. Electric current through the element encounters resistance, resulting in heating of the element. This process is independent of the direction of current.
O-rings are used in various types of restaurant equipment to create a seal between two connected parts, preventing leakage of product, liquids or gases:
- Espresso Machines: O-rings are used to seal the group head and the portafilter, ensuring that hot water and steam are directed into the coffee grounds to produce espresso, and not leaked out.
- Refrigeration Systems: O-rings are used to seal the refrigerant lines and connections in refrigeration systems, preventing refrigerant leakage and ensuring that the system operates efficiently.
- Beverage Dispensers: O-rings are used to seal the connections between the beverage dispenser and the beverage container, ensuring that the beverage is dispensed without any leakage.
- Dishwashers: O-rings are used in dishwasher pumps, ensuring that water is properly circulated and does not leak or flow in the wrong direction.
- Fryers: O-rings are used to seal the connections between the gas supply and the burner in fryers, ensuring that there is no gas leakage and preventing potential safety hazards.
A mechanical seal is a device that helps join systems or mechanisms together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a pump system), maintaining temperature, containing pressure, or excluding contamination. The effectiveness of a seal is dependent on adhesion in the case of sealants and compression in the case of gaskets or o-rings.
