HobSensus measures the temperature of the hob surface over 64 points. This ensures accuracy in all cooking conditions and reduces installation/set-up time.
HobSensus is designed to monitor cooking spaces; help to prevent pan fires; and ensure hobs are not left on inadvertently. Its robust manufacture makes it ideal for challenging applications such as student kitchens.
HobSensus ‘watches’ over the cooking area, monitoring temperature on the hob surface and measuring the current drawn by the appliance.
The ‘eye’ of the device reads the temperature at 64 separate points across the surface of the cooking area. If the temperature rises to dangerous levels in any of the zones, for example a pan of boiling oil is left unattended, the power turns off, the alarm sounds and disaster is averted.
Normal operation can be resumed when the kitchen is occupied again, and the red button is pressed.
How is HobSensus installed?
The unit is fitted on the wall 600mm above the work surface, and the 40Amp switching capacity makes it compatible with most 600mm or 900mm wide electric hobs.
The Sensor Head (SH) is mounted above the hob surface and the Power Switching Unit (PSU) under the worktop. These can be hard-wired or where this is impractical the sensor head can use 4AA batteries for power, providing an estimated life expectancy of 2 years. A secure, highly-reliable digital radio signal provides communication between the two devices.
Performance, practicality and style!
Robust manufacture makes HobSensus tamper-proof, if sensors are covered for example, the hob will become inoperative. The hard-wearing fascia plate is easy to keep clean and ensures the units effectiveness in the most challenging environments. While the design aesthetic will fit in with any kitchen style.
