Product overview

At 400 × 500 × 185 mm the BT-500C2 is larger and taller than the D350I, which gives a more stable wok platform at 500–5000W. Sensor touch control with a 4-digit LED display, safety lock, 60°C–240°C range, and 0–180 minute timer are listed on the spec sheet, together with electronic overheating and overvoltage protection. Better IH Malaysia positions this model for busy Chinese restaurants that already have a strong single-phase supply and want wok output above the 3.5 kW class.

Dimensions

The BT-500C2 measures 400 X 500 X 185 MM (length × width × height). Use these written dimensions when planning a counter cut-out, table space, or plant-room layout. Confirm the finished opening, cable entry, and ventilation gap with Better IH Malaysia before fabrication.

Installation type

Installation type for the BT-500C2: Table-top. It belongs with Tabletop Induction Cookers.

Table-top placement on a ventilated worktop. 5000W on 220–240V is a heavy single-phase load — a dedicated circuit and correctly sized cable are required. Do not share the outlet with other high-draw equipment.

Suitable applications

The BT-500C2 is for wok lines that have outgrown a 3.5 kW hob and can support a 5 kW single-phase load.

  • High-volume Chinese restaurant wok stations
  • Central kitchens running continuous stir-fry service
  • Hotels that need a 5 kW table-top wok hob
  • Catering kitchens plating wok dishes at speed

Frequently asked questions

How does the BT-500C2 differ from the BT-500C?

Both are 5 kW, 400 × 500 × 185 mm stainless-steel units on 220–240V. The BT-500C2 uses a round wok glass hob. The BT-500C uses a flat glass hob for pans and pots rather than a wok profile.

Can a normal 13A plug run the BT-500C2?

5000W at 230V draws more than a typical 13A socket should carry continuously. Plan a dedicated circuit and have an electrician confirm the connection method for this model.

What temperature range does the BT-500C2 cover?

60°C–240°C, with a 0–180 minute LED timer and safety lock on the touch controls.

Is the BT-500C2 covered by warranty in Malaysia?

Better IH Malaysia provides local after-sales support for this model. Warranty length and coverage are confirmed on quotation because commercial, built-in, and table-top installations can differ. Contact us for the current warranty period, service process, and spare-parts support in Malaysia.
