Commercial Induction Cooktop – Freestanding Flat Range, 8–18 kW
The Maxwell Commercial Induction Cooktop is a freestanding induction flat range for hotel, hospital and institutional kitchens that need continuous, high-capacity cooking. It is built on a heavy stainless steel body with a 600 mm rear backsplash and a wipe-clean flat Ceran glass deck with no grease grates to clean. Four power ratings are offered: 8 kW (MI-FR-08), 12 kW (MI-FR-12), 15 kW (MI-FR-15) and 18 kW (MI-FR-18). All share a 650 mm x 700 mm footprint, so you can match output to your largest pots without changing the layout of the cooking line.
Auto Pan Detection switches heating off when cookware is removed, and the 415 V three-phase supply is designed for commercial loads. Compared with a conventional gas burner, an induction flat range puts the heat into the pan rather than into the kitchen, and Maxwell rates the technology at around 90% thermal efficiency. Typical uses are stock pot simmering, high-capacity soup boiling and general commercial cooking in hotel main kitchens. Maxwell Induction manufactures the cooktop in Chennai and supplies it Pan-India with a 12-month equipment warranty.
