Overview

Blue Seal IN512R3-B Evolution Series 450mm Dual Zone Induction Cooktop - Bench Model

The Blue Seal IN512R3-B is a commercial-grade bench-mounted induction cooktop from the Evolution Series, purpose-built for restaurants, cafes, hotels and busy catering kitchens. Featuring two 3.5kW round induction zones (7kW combined output) across a 450mm footprint, it delivers rapid, precise heat directly to induction-compatible cookware with no wasted ambient energy, keeping the cooking environment cooler and safer for kitchen staff.

Constructed from heavy-duty 304 stainless steel with a 6mm ceramic glass cooking surface, the IN512R3-B is engineered for continuous commercial service. Its compact bench model configuration suits modular kitchen suites and open kitchen environments alike, while forced-air cooling, automatic pan detection, and infinitely variable power controls ensure consistent, reliable performance across every service period.

Key Benefits

• Instant induction heat transfer to cookware dramatically reduces heat-up times compared to gas or radiant electric, improving kitchen throughput during busy service periods.
• Automatic pan detection switches each induction zone off the moment cookware is removed, reducing energy waste and eliminating the risk of accidental burns on an unattended surface.
• Dual independently controlled zones allow chefs to boil, simmer and sauté simultaneously, supporting multi-dish preparation without cross-zone interference.
• Induction technology generates heat within the cookware rather than the surrounding air, significantly lowering ambient kitchen temperatures and improving staff comfort.
• Infinitely variable power controls on each zone give precise, repeatable heat settings for consistent cooking results across service shifts.
• Flat ceramic glass cooking surface is easy to wipe clean between services, supporting high hygiene standards in commercial kitchens.
• Compact 450mm width maximises valuable bench space and integrates neatly into complete Blue Seal Evolution Series kitchen suites.
• Forced-air fan cooling actively manages internal component temperatures, supporting reliable continuous operation in demanding commercial environments.
• Heating-on and pan detection indicator lights provide clear at-a-glance status for each zone, reducing operator error during fast-paced service.
