The Anvil ICK3500 is a commercial induction cooker running 3.1 kW from a 15 amp supply, with a temperature range of 60 to 240 °C and electronic overheat protection. Induction heats the pan rather than the air, so it requires magnetic-based cookware.Why operators choose the ICE-ICK3500 Requires magnetic-based pots — induction works by inducing current in the pan itself, so aluminium and copper without a magnetic base will not heat. Test your existing pans with a magnet before ordering 60 to 240 °C — a working range from holding through to searing Electronic overheat protection — cuts the unit before the electronics cook, which is the common failure on induction under a busy pass 3.1 kW on a 15 amp supply — above a standard outlet, so it needs a 15 amp point 250 mm cooking circle — the heated zone, so match your pan base to it rather than to the overall top Timer with LED display, 0 to 180 minutes — unattended holding without a separate clock Instant heat — no warm-up and no idle draw, which is where induction saves money during quiet periods Specifications Brand Anvil Model / MPN ICK3500 SKU ICE-ICK3500 Type Commercial induction cooker Temperature range 60 to 240 degrees C Cookware Magnetic-based pots required Safety Electronic overheat protection Cooking circle 250 mm Timer LED display, 0 to 180 minutes Power 240 V, 3.1 kW, 15 A Dimensions (W x H x D) 375 x 172 x 420 mm Warranty 12 months (parts/labour split not recorded) Venue suitabilityInduction suits kitchens that want cooking power without the heat load and ventilation burden of gas - front-of-house cooking, demo kitchens, tight spaces and any site where a gas connection is impractical.

Dimensions are recorded width x height x depth: 375 x 172 x 420 mm, so the depth is the largest figure. Induction needs airflow underneath and around the vents; do not box it in. Our data records no weight.Warranty terms are per product — see our warranty information page.Frequently asked questionsQ: What size pan does it take?The cooking circle is 250 mm - that is the heated zone. A pan with a base wider than that will have an unheated rim, and a much smaller base may not trigger the pan-detection. Match the base, not the overall pan diameter.Q: Can I use my existing pans?Only if they are magnetic-based. Induction induces current in the pan itself, so stainless with a magnetic base and cast iron work, while plain aluminium and copper do not. Hold a fridge magnet to the base - if it sticks, the pan will work.Q: Can I plug it into a normal outlet?No. At 3.1 kW it needs a 15 amp supply. A standard 10 amp outlet will not carry it.Q: What is the difference between this and the drop-in ICK3501?Installation and power. This is a benchtop unit at 3.1 kW; the ICK3501 is a drop-in built into the counter, at 3.5 kW, with a stainless body and frame and controls that can be sited above or below the counter. Both need a 15 amp supply and both run 60 to 240 C.Q: What does the timer do?It runs 0 to 180 minutes on an LED display, so you can hold or cook to time without watching the unit.{"@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [{"@type": "Question", "name": "What size pan does it take?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "The cooking circle is 250 mm - that is the heated zone.
