Important Information for Installation Of ACM795BA
The ACM795BA is one of the most powerful induction hobs ever produced with a massive 10,400W of power when all 5 cooking zones are
on Boost. This includes a 34cm central zone and flexi-zone.
It has dramatically lower electrical requirements over other inductions, making it one of the most energy efficient induction s available.
One of the unique features of the ACM795BA gives it a leading edge over nearly all other induction hobs on the market. The ACM795BA has
the ability to activate the boosters on all hot zones AT THE SAME TIME.
All induction hobs require a large amount of electricity to run, so there may be cases where some houses need to have special re-wiring
done to the house. This can affect up to 40% of kitchen renovations who need to decide weather they can justify the cost to re-wire the
house or not.
However for over 60% of the market for cook tops, including new homes an induction cook top installation will be an easy and affordable
option to go with.
The Whirlpool ACM795BA 90cm induction has two highly technical features which has changed the way it draws and uses electricity:
The ‘split board’ (SCB)
6th Sense technology
Most induction hobs (4+zones) require between 39-42Amps with only one control board and one hard line installed.
Instead on the Whirlpool ACM795BA 90cm induction, the SCB requires two separate hard lines to be wired (see image). The SCB has one
larger control board managing the three primary zones (25Amps) and a smaller board (left side in diagram) managing the Flexi-zone
(15Amps)
This allows the system to activate all five zones with the BOOST simultaneously without loosing power since both boards are sharing the
load.
The SBC is further enhanced by Whirlpool’s 6th Sense technology. The computers ‘brain’ continually alternates the electrical current be-
tween the zones, hundreds of times per second. This minimizes the amount of electrical amplitude needed and maximizes the inductions
overall efficiency.
With this innovation, Whirlpool have opened a whole new induction market. Previously a customer with an older home (1 phase) could not
consider induction as a option. Builders and consumers who wanted larger format induction were often unable to purchase their dream
kitchen appliances– and today they can with the Whirlpool ACM795BA 90cm induction
