Electrically Heated Jacketed Kettles

Classification and Features

1. Structural Forms
   • Tilting Jacketed Kettles: These kettles can be tilted, facilitating the easy transfer of materials after processing. They are suitable for scenarios where quick and efficient discharge is required, such as in commercial kitchens or food factories.
   • Vertical (Fixed) Jacketed Kettles: With a stationary design, they offer stability during long - term heating and processing tasks, often used in continuous production lines.
2. Heating Methods
   • Electrically Heated Jacketed Kettles: As mentioned, they use electricity as the heat source, providing precise temperature control and being suitable for environments where steam or gas supply is limited.
   • Steam Jacketed Kettles: Utilize steam for heating, which is efficient and can achieve rapid temperature increases, commonly applied in large - scale industrial production.
   • Gas Jacketed Kettles: Operated by gas, they offer quick heating and are a cost - effective option in regions with readily available gas resources.
3. Stirring Methods
   • With Stirring: Equipped with stirring paddles, these kettles ensure uniform mixing of materials, preventing burning and ensuring consistent quality. They are essential for processing viscous or easily - burnt substances, like jams, sauces, and candies.
   • Without Stirring: Ideal for simple heating or boiling tasks where continuous agitation is unnecessary, such as boiling water or pre - cooking certain ingredients.
