First. How to Test the Goodness of the Heating Tube Element in a Steam Cabinet
The heating tube in a steam cabinet is responsible for heating water to produce steam, which is used for heating and steaming food. If the electric heating tube malfunctions, the heating function will not operate normally. The electric heating tube can be tested for damage using a multimeter. The heating element may fail due to short circuits or open circuits, which can both be measured using a multimeter.
At first, use the resistance function on the multimeter to measure the resistance of the stainless steel heating tube terminals to check if the heating element is conductive. If the measurement shows that it is conductive, it means that the heating element’s heating wire is good.
Next, use the resistance function on the multimeter to measure the resistance between the heating element terminals and the metal tube to see if the resistance is close to infinity. If the resistance value is close to infinity, then the heating tube is fine.
By measuring the resistance of the electric tubular heating element, you can determine whether it is in good condition. As long as the resistance is normal, the heating element is good.
Second. How to Replace the Heating Element in a Steam Cabinet
When the heating element is damaged, it needs to be replaced promptly. The steps for replacing the heating element are as follows:
1. remove the screws that secure the electric heating tube.
2. remove the old heating element and install the new one.
3. put the heating element back in its original position and tighten the screws.
