Commercial Kitchen Timers

Commercial kitchen timers are a type of specialized clock used to measure time intervals and are useful for alerting your food-service staff when a certain dish is cooked. A commercial kitchen timer is often a stand-alone gadget as opposed to a cooking appliance with a built-in timer. The operating system of a restaurant kitchen timer may be mechanical, electromechanical, or purely electronic.

Commercial timers that utilize mechanical clockwork to measure time are typically set by turning a dial to a certain time interval. Upon turning, the dial then stores energy in a mainspring that runs the mechanism. Mechanical commercial timers function like a mechanical alarm clock in that the energy in the mainspring results in a balance wheel rotating back and forth.

On the other hand, a commercial timer that uses a thermal mechanism is sometimes called an electromechanical timer. These types of commercial timers run on an electric current but are different in function to full electronic timers.

Essentially, electronic timers are similar to quartz clocks with special electronics that make them more precise than a mechanical kitchen timer. While electronic commercial timers feature digital electronics, they may have either a digital or an analog display.
