Induction cooktop CASTA LQ/CUI2HBB

This professional induction hob heats cookware directly using a magnetic field beneath its ceramic surface. The field activates only when a pan is placed on the zone, ensuring energy is used efficiently and the surrounding area remains cool. The kitchen environment benefits from reduced heat compared to traditional gas or electric hobs, as the ceramic surface stays cool to the touch during operation.

The LADYQ 900 features two separate 5.0 kW zones. A pan placed on either zone can be controlled via the digital display, which shows the selected power level. Temperature adjustments are made using a rotary potentiometer, allowing precise control over cooking. The zone reacts instantly when a pan is placed or removed, switching off automatically to save energy and prevent accidental burns.

Constructed on a frame measuring 400 mm deep and 900 mm wide, the hob is made from AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch Brite finish. The cooking surface is a single sheet of Pyroceram glass ceramic, known for its durability and ease of cleaning. Control knobs are crafted from heat-resistant polymer with a cool-grip design, ensuring safe operation even at high temperatures. Four adjustable legs allow the unit to be installed at standard worktop height, suitable for bench or modular cabinet setups.

A 400 V three-phase supply supports the hob's power requirements, making it suitable for professional kitchens where multiple appliances operate simultaneously. The 400 mm depth provides space for splash guards or additional prep areas behind the hob, while the 900 mm width allows two large pans to be used side by side.

Maintenance is straightforward, focusing on the ceramic surface and stainless steel frame. The Pyroceram top can be cleaned with a damp cloth once cooled, and the Scotch Brite finish on the stainless steel minimises fingerprints and grease marks. The digital display and potentiometer are protected behind a sealed control panel, shielding them from splashes and steam.
