Air fryers often have several safety settings to ensure the safety of both the user and the equipment during use. The air fryer has a built-in temperature sensor that monitors and controls the operating temperature of the fryer. If the temperature exceeds the set safety range, the fryer may automatically stop heating to prevent dangerous overheating.

Fryers often come with a timer that allows the user to set the cooking time. Once the set time is reached, the fryer may automatically stop working to prevent overcooking or forgetting to turn off the appliance. The fryer has an automatic power-off function. When preset conditions (such as temperature, timer, etc.) are reached, the fryer will automatically cut off the power supply to ensure that the equipment stops working.

Microswitches may be used to monitor various parts of the fryer, such as microswitches for equipment doors. If the user opens the appliance door, the microswitch may be triggered, immediately stopping the fryer’s operation to prevent the user from being injured during operation.

The fryer stops when the user opens the fryer basket to prevent injury when adding or stirring food. The fryer may be equipped with an overheating protection device that will automatically stop heating if it detects that the equipment is overheating to avoid damaging the equipment or causing safety issues.

The fryer is designed with a non-slip base to ensure the device is securely placed on the countertop when in use, reducing the risk of tilting or sliding. The outer shell of the fryer is usually designed to be insulated to prevent users from getting burned when they touch the surface of the fryer. The fryer comes with an instruction manual that provides detailed usage and safety tips, including proper cleaning, plugging and unplugging, and more.

Air fryer temperature control and timer

Air fryer temperature control and timer are two key features that provide users with a more convenient and safer cooking experience. The air fryer has a built-in temperature sensor that can monitor the temperature inside the fryer in real time. Users can set the desired cooking temperature via the control panel or buttons. The temperature control function allows users to adjust the temperature of the fryer according to different ingredients and cooking needs. This helps ensure food is cooked at the ideal temperature and avoids overcooking or undercooking.

The air fryer comes with a timer that allows the user to set the desired cooking time. The timer will count down and once the set time is reached, the fryer will stop working and issue a prompt. The timer function allows users to precisely control cooking times to avoid over or under cooking. Users can set the appropriate time based on the type and quantity of ingredients to ensure that the food is cooked within the specified time.

The combined use of these two functions allows users to more flexibly control the operation of the fryer, improving cooking accuracy and reliability. For example, users can set the temperature while using a timer to ensure cooking is completed within a predetermined time. This is great for various cooking needs like frying, roasting, oven etc.

Turn on the fryer and set desired cooking temperature. Set a timer to determine how long it takes to cook. Place the ingredients into the fryer, close the appliance door, and start the air fryer. Wait for the timer countdown to complete, and the fryer will automatically stop working and issue a prompt after the set time. The use of these two functions can be flexibly adjusted according to different cooking needs and types of ingredients, making it more convenient for users to use the air fryer for cooking.

Limit micro switch detects food basket

In some air fryers, a microswitch may be used to detect the position and status of the food basket. limit micro switches are usually mounted on the bottom or sides of the air fryer to interact with the movement of the food basket. It may be connected to the support or slide structure of the food basket.

The position of the limit micro switch is designed so that when the food basket is in a specific position, the switch is in a triggered or non-triggered state. Such a design can detect the open and closed status of the food basket. When the food basket is opened or pushed out, the microswitch may be triggered, causing the electrical contacts inside the switch to close or open. This triggering action will generate a signal to notify the air fryer’s control system that the status of the food basket has changed.

The triggering state of the limit micro switch may trigger some control actions, such as cutting off the power supply or sending an alarm signal. This helps prevent the air fryer from being started with the food basket open, ensuring user safety when adding or stirring food. By detecting the status of the food basket with a microswitch, the air fryer can implement some safety features, such as preventing the heating element from working when the food basket is not closed properly, preventing user accidents during operation. The limit micro switch plays a key role in detecting the status of the food basket, ensuring user safety when using the air fryer.

Air fryer indicator light

The air fryer indicator light is a visual feedback device used to display the operating status of the fryer and provide user-related information. Typically, air fryers have a power indicator light on them to show whether the fryer is on. When the fryer is powered on, the power indicator light is on; conversely, when the fryer is turned off, the power indicator light is off.

The air fryer may have an operating status indicator light that shows the current operating status of the fryer. For example, the operating status light may be on when the fryer is heating and off when the fryer has finished cooking and stopped heating. Your air fryer may be equipped with a temperature indicator light that displays the temperature status inside the fryer.
