1a. PITT®cooking can safely be built into:

• Compact board (eg. Trespa)

• Concrete

• Glass

• Natural stone (eg. granite, marble)

Additional requirements apply to Solid Surface. See chapter 3.

1b. The minimum thickness of the core material is 4 mm.

For Solid Surface, Quartz composite, compact board and natural stone applies a minimum

thickness of the core material (solid) of 10 mm.

For Top Side for all materials, a maximum thickness of 35 mm applies.

For Front Side for all materials, a maximum thickness of 25 mm applies.

The bottom of the benchtop needs to be completely flat, in order to bring the

heat conductor in full contact with the benchtop.

1. Benchtop material suitable for PITT

cooking

Installation and handling PC AU V1 2019.indd 3 6-5-2019 12:34:23

•Stainless steel (eg. 4mm solid or 1(+) mm on substrate board*

*When using astainless steel benchtop with asubstrate asuitable adhesive must be used. The

min speciﬁcations for the adhesive is 90 degrees Celsius.

•Solid Surface (eg. Corian, Hi-Macs, Staron)

•Quartz composite (Caesarstone, Silestone, Quantum Quartz, Smartstone)

•Ceramics (eg. Dekton, Neolith, Maximim)

PITT®cooking should never be installed into solid wood or benchtops with an HPL

top layer. (eg. Laminex)

!The guidelines of the kitchen manufacturer and/or the manufacturer of the kitchen

benchtop should always be strictly followed.

2a. The C-size for Top Side models should be at least 50 mm (fig.1).

The distance between the cut out (Top Side and Front Side) and the sides (left or right) of the

benchtop should be at least 150 mm.

2. Manufacturing hole cut-outs for benchtop’s

Front Side can be applied to the front side of the benchtop as well as the blind of the

kitchen cabinet (whether indented or not). The center of the knobs measured from the top of

the benchtop is at least 50 and at most 100 mm (fig.3).

2c.

2d. On the top and bottom of the recess(es) should be a facet of at least 1x1 mm be

applied (with exception for Solid Surface) (fig. 6).

2. Manufacturing hole cut-outs

The insides of the holes should be smooth and even (fig. 4).Irregularities can

cause cracking (fig. 5).

Adhesive connections and/or interconnections should never intersect the holes. These

should have adistance of at least 250 mm to the center of the hole (fig. 7and 8).

Fig. 9

Installation and handling PC AU V1 2019.indd 6 6-5-2019 12:34:26

If that horizontal clearance is less than 200 mm, that vertical surface must be protected

by a non-combustible material for 150 mm above the cooktop surface across the entire

length (depth, width).

The minimum clearance from a combustible surface shall be a 200 mm horizontal

distance from the periphery of any gas burner (AS/NZS 5601.1). (ﬁg. 9).

2f.

2. Manufacturing hole cut-outs

!The guidelines of the manufacturer of the Solid Surface material should always be strictly

followed.

In case of Solid Surface the following extra instructions apply:

3a. Use a router or CNC machine to prevent jagged recesses.

Radius R = 3 mm

Fig. 10 Fig. 11

Extra plate Solid Surface

3b. Glue an extra Solid Surface plate at all times at the bottom of the benchtop. This plate

should have the same measurements as the PITT cooking heat conductor, and the same

thickness as the benchtop (fig. 10).

3c. A range of minimum R=3 mm should be applied on the top and bottom of the recess(es). By

sanding it smooth afterwards, possible cracks can be prevented (fig. 11).

3d. If the benchtop has been thickened, a ladder frame must always be applied (fig. 12).

manufacturer of the Solid Surface product.

!We advise to use a ladder frame at all times.

3. Manufacturing hole cut-outs |Solid Surface (eg. Corian, Sharon, Hi-Macs)

3e. Apply aluminium tape and thermo tape in the recess(es), in this order:

1) aluminum tape 2) thermo tape 3) aluminum tape (fig. 13).

The aluminum and thermo tape should be overlapping the top of the benchtop surface with at least

5 mm. This seal will offer protection to the changes in temperature.

Note!

Tape may not be folded on edge of recess.

It is very important that this sealing does not stick out - this because the heat conductor

should be able to connect 100% with the bottom of the benchtop.

4. Installation the kitchen benchtop

!The guidelines of the kitchen manufacturer and/or the manufacturer of the kitchen benchtop

should always be strictly followed.

4a. The cabinets should be placed perfectly levelled (fig. 14 and 15).

If there is asubstrate under the benchtop the substrate should be cut to fit the PIT cooktop.

The cutout should be the same size (+10 mm) as the PITT®cooking module. This is to bring

the heat conductor in full contact with the core material (fig. 16).

min. 3 mm

4c. The benchtop should have full support on the left, right, front and back side of the PITT

cooking unit (fig. 17). This prevents tension in the benchtop from the weight of the cooking

unit. We advise to support the benchtop with a ladder frame.

4d. The distance between the kitchen benchtop and the wall and/or cabinets should be at least 3

mm (fig. 18). This allows the material to expand.
