The 5L/7L Aluminum Pressure Cooker
Lid Latch Indicator: This feature ensures the lid is securely locked before cooking starts. Most safe pressure cookers have an interlock or locking system that prevents opening under pressure, avoiding sudden release of steam and scalding risk.
Safety Valves: These act as pressure release mechanisms if pressure exceeds safe limits, critical in pressure cooker safety systems. Many aluminum pressure cookers use spring or weighted valve systems for this purpose.
Material - Aluminum Alloy: Aluminum’s excellent thermal conductivity ensures faster and even heating, leading to energy-efficient, quick cooking.
Double Handles: Provide safe handling by allowing secure grip and movement, minimizing the risk of dropping or spilling hot contents.
Pressure Cooking Principle: Using steam pressure to raise the boiling point of water, cooking food faster while preserving flavors and nutrients.
Explosion-Proof Safety: The cooker includes multiple safety valves and a secure lid latch or locking mechanism, which together prevent the cooker from building excessive pressure that can cause accidents. This aligns with the common safety practice found in pressure cookers that rely on pressure regulating valves and interlock lids to maintain safe cooking pressure.
Additional Notes
Maximum fill levels are crucial to prevent blockage of valves and ensure safe pressure build-up. Typically, no more than two-thirds full with solids, half full with liquids, and less when cooking foaming foods like rice or pulses.
Regular cleaning of valves and seals is important to avoid malfunctions.
For best safety and performance, follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully, especially regarding sealing the lid correctly, monitoring pressure indicators, and maintaining valve cleanliness.
