The convection fan system of a manual air fryer is a crucial part of its working principle, responsible for quickly delivering high-temperature air to the surface of the ingredients to achieve even and fast cooking results.
Fan design and location:
Manual air fryers have a high-powered fan installed inside, usually at the top or bottom of the fryer. This fan is designed to quickly deliver high-temperature air to the surface of the food through powerful airflow, so that the food is evenly heated. The position of the fan is usually coordinated with the structure and heating system of the fryer to ensure efficient operation of the convection fan system.
How a convection fan system works:
When the electric heating element reaches the set temperature, the convection fan system starts to work. After the fan is started, the high-temperature air is quickly delivered to the interior of the fryer through powerful airflow. This convection movement not only heats the surface of the food evenly, but also takes away the moisture on the surface of the food, making the outer layer of the food crispier.
Fan speed and control system:
Convection fan systems usually have multiple wind speeds, and users can choose the appropriate wind speed according to different ingredients. Some advanced manual air fryers are also equipped with intelligent control systems that can automatically adjust the fan's operating speed according to the cooking program to ensure the best cooking results.
Air duct design:
Convection fan system designs also include air ducts to direct and distribute air flow. Properly designed air ducts can ensure even air flow and avoid the situation where one part of the food is overheated and another part is underheated. The optimized design of the air duct helps improve the efficiency and cooking uniformity of the convection fan system.
Fan silent technology:
In order to improve the user experience, some manufacturers of manual air fryers have adopted advanced silent technology to minimize the noise when the fan is running. This ensures efficient cooking while maintaining a relatively quiet kitchen environment during use.
