      Rational Cooking Equipment

      Rational offers a comprehensive ecosystem of catering equipment designed to work in harmony. While many recognise the brand for its heritage in convection and steam technology, their current portfolio covers every aspect of the modern commercial kitchen, replacing multiple conventional cooking applications.

      Our Rational Product Range

      • Ovens: The legendary Rational combi oven series, including the iCombi Pro and iCombi Classic, sets the benchmark for versatile cooking.
      • Cooking Centres: The iVario Pro, a leader in multifunctional cooking systems that replaces tilting bratt pans, kettles, and deep fryers.
      • Oven Cleaner: Essential care products and cleaning tabs formulated to maintain the hygiene and longevity of your Rational kitchen equipment.

      Core Features & Benefits for Modern Kitchens

      • Energy Efficiency: Modern Rational units can reduce energy consumption by up to 70% compared to traditional gas equipment, significantly lowering overheads.
      • iDensityClimate: Sophisticated sensors manage the climate inside the cabinet to ensure consistency and consistent food quality even with full loads.
      • iVarioBoost: Combining ceramic heating elements with a fast-response base for incredible speed when boiling, grilling, or searing.
      • Space-Saving: Consolidating multiple appliances into one unit saves valuable floor space, allowing for a more ergonomic kitchen layout.
      • HACCP Data Management: Automatic logging of all safety-critical data, easily accessible via the ConnectedCooking app.

      FAQs

      What are the Rational cleaning products?

      Rational provides a tailored range of chemicals designed to protect the internal components of their appliances:

      • Tablets: Active Green tablets provide phosphate-free cleaning, while Care Tabs prevent limescale.
      • Cartridges: Specifically for the iProductionManager and certain older iCombi models, these offer a closed chemical system for maximum safety and convenience.
      • Liquid: Liquid cleaners and rinse aid are generally used for older Rational products like the ClimaPlus Combi and Combi-Master lines.

      What are the benefits of Rational commercial cooking accessories?

      Using genuine Rational oven trays and accessories allows the equipment to adapt to specific cooking methods, resulting in better quality:

      • Poultry Superspikes: These hold poultry vertically, allowing heat to cook from the inside out, reducing protein shrinkage and significantly increasing speed.
      • Ribbed/Grill Trays: These trays have high heat-storage capacity to mimic traditional grilling, producing branding marks and ensuring consistency without flipping.
      • Perforated Fry Trays: Allow for maximum convection airflow, enabling you to "oven-fry" products with results that mimic a deep fry but with far less oil.

      What is Gastronorm?

      Gastronorm (GN) is a standardised sizing system for food containers, trays and pans used across commercial kitchens worldwide. It was developed to ensure that equipment like ovens, fridges, and bain-maries can all use the same container sizes seamlessly. Using GN-standard oven trays allows chefs to move food seamlessly through different stages of production without transferring containers, saving time and labour.

      Can Rational systems help with food safety compliance?

      Yes. Current Rational cooking systems (including the iCombi and iVario ranges) automatically record all relevant HACCP data for every cooking cycle. Information such as temperatures and cooking durations can be stored for up to 10 days on the unit or indefinitely via the ConnectedCooking cloud platform.

      This provides a secure, digital paper trail for food safety audits, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual logging and ensuring 100% accuracy in professional kitchens.

      What connections are needed for Rational cooking equipment?

      To fully utilise the features of a Rational unit, your kitchen requires three primary connections.

      • Power: While a standard power supply is necessary, high-performance appliances often require high-voltage currents to ensure rapid heat-up times and efficiency when preparing large quantities.
      • Water: A reliable water connection is essential for both cooking and the automated cleaning cycles, while a dedicated drainage point is needed to manage steam condensate safely. Rational recommends a water filtration system to prevent scale build-up.
      • Internet: Network connections or appropriate WiFi connections are highly recommended if you want to use all the features of the appliances, such as accessing HACCP data and remote management via ConnectedCooking.

      To ensure your unit is configured for optimal resource use and long-term reliability, we recommend professional installation to tailor these connections to your specific venue requirements.
