BUMPER HEIGHT CONTROL

Bumpers are commonly used in the design of foodservice equipment. A bumper is a mechanical device used to absorb or soften an impact, or protect against collision. Bumpers are often made of rubber or a soft plastic and can be found in or used with ice bins, sliding refrigerator, freezer, and merchandiser doors, ice cream cabinets, holding and serving cabinets and carts, and more.

Controls of all kinds are integral parts of restaurant equipment operation. A control is a switch or other device by which a machine is regulated. A control may be manual or automatically operated. An electro-mechanical control typically consists of multiple relays, timers, and/or counters wired together on an enclosure panel. Electro-mechanical control is also referred to simply as "Relay Control", which is a more accurate term since solid state electronic relays, timers, and counters are standard components. Contactors, motor and compressor starters, valves, thermostats, and other output devices are used to turn on/off motors, indicator lights, heating elements, and other components used in the equipment.
