Halogen infrared heating tubes for food insulation
Efficient heating method
Fast heating: Halogen infrared heating tubes have a fast thermal response speed. After turning on, they can reach the working temperature and start releasing heat in a short time. When food is placed in its heating range, it can quickly heat and keep the food warm. For example, for dishes that have just come out of the pot, the temperature of the food can be restored and maintained in the appropriate eating temperature range within a few minutes.
High energy conversion efficiency: It has a high electrothermal conversion efficiency and can convert most of the electrical energy into infrared radiation energy. This means that during the insulation process, relatively less electrical energy is consumed to maintain the temperature of the food, which can effectively save energy costs in long-term insulation scenarios such as commercial catering venues.
Uniform heating effect
All-round radiation: The infrared rays emitted by halogen infrared heating tubes can radiate in all directions, which can heat and keep the food warm in all directions. Whether the food is placed below, on the side or diagonally above the heating tube, it can receive the infrared radiation heat. For example, in the food insulation area of ​​a buffet restaurant, using this heating tube can ensure that the entire plate of food, including the edges and the center, can be evenly heated and kept warm.
Penetrating heating: Infrared has a certain penetrating ability. Although the texture and composition of food will have a certain impact on it, it can still penetrate part of the surface of the food and heat the inside. This is very beneficial for the insulation of some foods with a certain thickness, such as stews, barbecues, etc., to avoid the situation where the surface is overheated while the inside is already cold.
Accurate temperature control
Low thermal inertia: Halogen infrared heating tubes have low thermal inertia and are sensitive to temperature changes. After being equipped with a suitable temperature controller, it can be precisely adjusted according to the insulation temperature required by different foods. For example, for hot soups that need to be maintained at 60-70℃ and desserts that need to be maintained at 40-50℃, different insulation temperatures can be set respectively. The heating tube can quickly adjust the output power and accurately maintain the set temperature.
Stable temperature maintenance: Through good temperature feedback and control systems, this heating tube can stably maintain the insulation temperature of food. During the long-term insulation process, even if the ambient temperature changes or new food is constantly placed in the heating area, it can keep the temperature relatively stable to ensure the quality and taste of the food.
Safety and sanitation advantages
No open flames: No open flames are generated during the operation, reducing the risk of fire, which is especially important in catering environments. Whether in the dining area of ​​a restaurant or the food preparation area of ​​a kitchen, using a non-open flame heating method can provide a safer environment.
Easy to clean and maintain: Halogen infrared heating tubes usually have a simpler structure and are generally installed in a relatively easy-to-clean location. In catering places, after closing every day, the heating tubes and the surrounding areas can be easily cleaned and disinfected to ensure the hygiene and safety of food.
Beneficial effects on food quality
Maintain food moisture and taste: Unlike some heating methods that may dry out food, halogen infrared heating tubes mainly heat through radiation, which can better maintain the moisture of food. For example, when keeping food such as bread and pastries warm, they will not dry and harden quickly, thereby better maintaining the taste and flavor of the food.
Reducing the loss of nutrients: This heating method is relatively mild and can reduce the loss of nutrients in food during the insulation process to a certain extent. For some foods rich in nutrients such as vitamins and protein, such as vegetable salads and meat products, using halogen infrared heating tubes to keep warm helps maintain their nutritional value.
