Questions buyers ask
What can it cook?
Rational lists boil (85°F to boiling), pan-fry (85-480°F) and deep-fry (85-355°F) modes plus intelligent cooking paths and low-temperature cooking. Pressure cooking is not part of this model.
Does it pressure cook?
No. This is the standard iVario Pro XL. Pressure cooking is a factory option sold as a separate model (LMX200DE).
What electrical service does it need?
3-phase 208/240V. Rational lists 96 A running with a 125 A breaker and 2 AWG cable at 208V (34 kW); 88 A running with a 125 A breaker and 2 AWG cable at 240V (37 kW), for cable runs up to 78 3/4". Have a licensed electrician connect it per NEC and local code.
Does it need a floor drain?
Yes. Rational requires a rear indirect floor drain with an air gap. The pan drains through its own 2" drain, so no front floor trough is needed.
Does it come on legs?
Rational's standard US setup is a base with 5 7/8" adjustable plastic feet. Stainless steel feet, casters, electric height adjustment and wall mounting are setup options.
Are baskets and lift arms included?
No. Rational sells the lift arm, boiling and frying baskets, strainer and pan base racks separately, or together as accessory package 87.00.744 for the XL.
What warranty does it have?
New RATIONAL units carry a 2-year RATIONAL manufacturer warranty from the installation date, including parts, labor, and travel. Terms apply: Rational requires access to the unit's device data, and ConnectedCooking registration is recommended. See Rational's warranty statement.
