Installation

The Incogneeto can be used with natural stone or engineered stone (crushed stone and polymer resin composite). It is not

recommended for use with solid surfaces (all polymer resin).

Important Characteristics Of NATURAL Stone

Stone is a natural material with random natural defects in any given piece. Cracking can occur due to these defects alone. Moreover,

cracks can occur when pre-existing weak points are subjected to additional stresses or forces.

Heat differentials that cause one portion of the stone to try to expand while other portions try to remain fixed, will cause excess stress.

This localized heating can come from a number of sources:

a. Heat lamps above the stone

b. Heat generated by equipment below the stone

c. Heat from hot items placed on top of the stone

In extensive testing, NO NATURAL STONE was found to interfere with the performance of the wireless communications, or absorb

excess heat from the electro-magnetic induction waves associated with its Incogneeto and Magneeto II equipment.

Design Considerations When Using Incogneetowith NATURAL STONE

Any temperature gain that occurs inside the cabinet where an Incogneeto is mounted contributes to heating the stone. Keeping the

inside of the cabinets as close to room temperature as possible will therefore reduce stress on the stone. Cabinets with poor or

insufficient ventilation will increase the stress on the stone. Tensile strength of natural stone is proportionately linear with thickness: 3/4

(2.0cm) stone is 1/3rd thinner than 1-1/4 (3.0cm) stone, so that resistance to cracking is also reduced by 1/3. Applications with

prolonged intensive use are better served with 30mm stone above Incogneeto units. 1-1/4 (3.0cm) thick natural stone dissipates heat

much better than 3/4 (2.0cm), resulting in lower maximum temperatures. For prolonged intensive use applications, thicker stone is more

durable. The stone is not generally heated by the induction waves, but some heating will occur from radiation back from a hot pan. The

stone around the portion that is heated from radiation provides the mechanical strength buffer to help prevent fractures. Allowing as

much stone around the edge of the Incogneeto as possible will improve the strength of the whole system.

Best Practices Design Guidelines for Installation Under NATURAL STONE

It is recommended that natural stone over the Incogneeto be 1-1/4 (30mm) thick in high use applications. Synthetic or engineered

stone at 3/4 (2.cmm) is perfectly acceptable over the Incogneeto in all applications. (Note: 3/4 [2.0cm] tops in any material also

require plywood substrate.) It is further recommended that cabinets be built with sufficient ventilation to keep the interior compartment as

close to room temperature as possible. At least 8 of additional stone surface should be allowed from the edge of the Incogneeto

location to the final edge of any piece of natural stone. This requirement is NOT necessary for use with engineered stone. Extra care

should be taken to not have a mechanical seam in the cabinet support above or close to the Incogneeto.

General Guidelines

Note: With engineered stone, none of these extra guidelines apply, as it is a much more uniform and generally stronger material.

Heat lamps should not be used above any Incogneeto units, unless they are interlocked to prevent heating when a pan is not present,

or damage to the disk may occur. Installation is only recommended under three countertop configurations:

1-1/4 (3.0cm) stone, with 1/2 (1.2cm) substrate; or 1-1/4 (3.0cm) stone with 3/4 (2.0cm) plywood strips; or 3/4 (2.0cm) stone with 3/4

(2.0cm) substrate.

Countertop Preparation

(3.8cm - 4.2cm) 1-1/2 1-5/8

(3.8cm - 4.2cm) 1-1/2 1-5/8

(3.8cm - 4.2cm) 1-1/2 1-5/8

The combined thickness of stone, wood and any air

gap MUST BE WITHIN A RANGE OF 1-1/2 to 1-5/8

(3.8cm to 4.2cm). Too far away, communications

between the Magneeto II disk and Incogneeto may fail,

and/or insufficient thermal energy will be delivered to

the pan. Too close and too much energy could be

delivered resulting in damage the electronics in the

Magneeto II disk. Metals should NOT be used in any

part of the countertop construction directly above an

installed Incogneeto unit, although trace metals in the

stone or engineered stone ARE permissible. Metals in

cabinet construction may heat and / or interfere with

communication between the Magneeto II and

Incogneeto.

Installation

Mounting the Unit

The square collar should be installed first using 1/2 (1.2 cm) screws.

Make sure that it is perfectly square.

The unit is mounted simply by snapping into the collar via four spring

mounted buttons. The collar has holes pre-drilled on all four sides, but

only two sides are required to support the unit.

Install the unit with the Antenna side label on the same

side you want the MagneetoTM II communication tab to

located.

Mount units on Collar with Antenna Side on Guest Side.

MagneetoTM II wireless communicator must be above the Antenna Side.

MagneetoTM II can be used with the LED Indicator in the 3 o'clock or 6

o'clock position, but ideally in the 6 O'clock position facing the servers and

not the guests. Servers can see that the system is working and guests are not

distracted by the lights.

Mount units on Collar with Antenna Side against the wall.

MagneetoTM II wireless communicator must be above the Antenna Side.

MagneetoTM II can be used with the LED Indicator in the 3 o'clock or 6 o'clock

position. The 3 oclock position avoids the lights shining directly at seated

guests, but servers can see that the system is working.

3 o'clock (ideal position)

6 o'clock

The Incogneeto units can be mounted side be side with NO additional cooling clearance needed. However, the serving vessel on top

can be the limiting factor for side-by-side installation, particularly if a chafer with a spoon holder is used.
