Blue Seal IN511R3-B Evolution Series - 450mm Induction Cooktops - Bench Model

Blue Seal IN511R3-B Evolution Series 450mm Single Zone Induction Cooktop - Bench Model

The Blue Seal IN511R3-B is a 450mm bench-mounted commercial induction cooktop from the Evolution Series, purpose-built for restaurants, cafés, hotels, and catering kitchens that demand fast, energy-efficient cooking in a compact footprint. It features a single 3.5kW round induction zone measuring 270mm in diameter, topped by a 6mm thick ceramic glass cooking surface that delivers rapid, precise heat transfer directly to induction-compatible cookware.

Constructed from heavy-duty stainless steel and manufactured in New Zealand, the IN511R3-B combines durable commercial-grade build quality with practical operational features including automatic pan detection, infinitely variable power control, and a forced-air cooling system. Its compact countertop configuration makes it equally suited to standalone use or integration within a modular Blue Seal Evolution Series cooking line.

Key Benefits

• Instant heat response and infinitely variable power control allow chefs to move rapidly between boiling, simmering, sautéing, and stockpot cooking with precision and consistency.
• Automatic pan detection switches the induction zone off the moment cookware is removed, reducing energy waste and improving kitchen safety.
• Induction technology generates heat within the cookware rather than the surrounding air, significantly reducing ambient kitchen temperature and improving staff comfort during busy service periods.
• The flat 6mm ceramic glass surface has no burners, grates, or crevices, making it quick and easy to wipe clean and maintain high hygiene standards.
• Compact 450mm bench model footprint maximises valuable countertop workspace while offering flexible placement options, including integration into modular commercial cooking lines or open kitchen configurations.
• Forced-air fan cooling protects internal components during sustained high-output operation, contributing to long service life and reliable day-to-day performance.
• Indicator lights for heating status, pan detection, and error conditions give operators clear, at-a-glance feedback, reducing downtime and simplifying troubleshooting.
• Single-phase 15A power supply (230-240V, 3.5kW) simplifies electrical installation in venues without three-phase infrastructure.
