Heating element for boiler LF L3755061

A heating element converts electrical energy into heat, raising the temperature of water in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. This process ensures the water reaches the necessary temperature for effective cleaning and sanitisation, breaking down grease and removing food residues without manual scrubbing. The element sits submerged in the water tank, transferring heat directly to the water through conduction, which then circulates through the machine during wash and rinse cycles.

To use the element, the operator first ensures the machine is powered off and disconnected. The old element is removed by unscrewing the mounting nut and disconnecting the electrical terminals. The new LF element is positioned in the same location, secured with the mounting nut, and the electrical connections are reattached. Once installed, the machine is reconnected to the power supply, and the wash cycle can resume. The element activates automatically during the heating phase, controlled by the dishwasher's thermostat or electronic programme.

The LF heating element is constructed as a single unit, designed to fit specific models of HORECA SELECT and SILANOS commercial dishwashers, glasswashers and cupwashers. It operates on a 230 V electrical supply, matching the standard voltage used in professional kitchens across the UK. The 2600 W power rating indicates the load it places on the circuit, requiring a dedicated connection to avoid overloading shared lines.

This element is a direct replacement part for the listed models, ensuring compatibility without modification. It fits under-counter dishwashers, hood-type dishwashers, and standalone glasswashers, covering a range of capacities and configurations used in cafés, restaurants, and catering operations. Regular inspection of the element for scale build-up or corrosion helps maintain efficiency, as mineral deposits from hard water can reduce heat transfer over time.

The element is installed internally within the water tank or heating chamber of the appliance, making it accessible only during maintenance or replacement. No additional controls are required, as the dishwasher's existing thermostat or electronic control system manages its operation.
