Steam Cabinet

▶ Introduction to Steam Cabinet

Pressure steam cabinets are devices that use high-temperature, high-pressure steam to rapidly cook food or sterilize items. They are widely used in the catering industry, food processing, and some medical applications. Compared to conventional steam cabinets, they are upgraded with a sealed, pressurized structure that allows the steam temperature to exceed 100°C, thereby significantly improving heating efficiency.

The core working principle of a pressure steam cabinet is:

Heating water in a sealed space to generate steam → increasing internal pressure → raising the steam temperature → achieving rapid steaming

At the same time, when steam comes into contact with food, it condenses and releases a large amount of heat, making this method of heat transfer highly efficient. Its principle is similar to autoclave sterilization.

▶ The Advantages of Steam Cabinet

✔ Fast and Efficient Cooking: 

Steam temperature reaches within 120°C, higher than standard steam cabinets (~100°C).

Reduces cooking time, improves kitchen efficiency, and supports high-volume food preparation.

✔ Even Heating & Better Food Quality: 

Full steam coverage ensures uniform cooking and prevents undercooked portions.

Maintains moisture, flavor, and nutrients, ideal for rice, buns, meat, seafood, and vegetables.

✔ Strong Penetration: 

High-pressure steam penetrates thick or layered food.

Ensures all portions are thoroughly cooked, even in multi-tray setups.

✔ Large-Scale Production: 

Multi-layer tray design allows cooking large batches simultaneously.

Perfect for school cafeterias, factory canteens, and central kitchens.

✔ Energy Efficient: 

Shorter cooking time leads to lower energy consumption per unit.

High thermal efficiency thanks to steam condensation heat transfer.

✔ Fully Automated & Easy to Use: 

Features touchscreen control, programmable timers, and precise temperature/pressure regulation.

Simplifies operation and reduces labor requirements.

✔ Multi-Functional: Capable of steaming, heating, keeping food warm, and sterilization (similar to autoclave sterilization).

✔ Safe & Reliable: Equipped with safety valves, automatic exhaust, and interlock doors to prevent opening under pressure.
