Function of cover handle in pressure cooker
Answers
Answer:
VENT PIPE
The pressure regulator fits on the vent pipe and allows excess pressure to be released.
AIR VENT/COVER LOCK
Automatically exhausts air and serves as a visual indicator of pressure within the cooker. When pressure begins to build, it slides up, causing the LOCK PIN to lock the cover on.
SEALING RING
Forms a pressure-tight seal between the cover and the pressure cooker body during cooking.
OVERPRESSURE PLUG
Automatically releases pressure in case the vent pipe becomes clogged and pressure cannot be released normally.
COOKING RACK
Holds foods out of the cooking liquid. The rack also allows several different foods to be cooked at the same time without an intermingling of flavors. When a blending of flavors is desired, the rack is not used.
COVER HANDLE
The top of the air vent/cover lock can be seen through a hole in the cover handle, enabling you to tell at a glance if there is pressure inside the unit.
