Glossary
Tray size
Horizontal dimensions of one dryer tray.
For round models, this paragraph usually indicates the diameter (for example, “Ø250”), for other cases — the length and width. Anyway, the information about the size allows you to estimate the total area and, accordingly, the capacity of the device. At the same time, note that a larger size affects the dimensions and weight of the structure, and also requires more heating power (ceteris paribus).

Power consumption
Rated power consumed by the dryer during operation.
This parameter is usually selected by manufacturers depending on the volume of the dryer: the larger the device, the more power is needed to effectively heat the working chamber. At the same time, models with the same volume may differ in power consumption. In such cases, it is worth considering that a higher power reduces the heating time, but affects the price of the device.

Pastila tray
Availability of a tray for pastille in the dryer supply package.
Unlike regular trays, this device features a solid bottom without holes. This is because the primary raw material for making pastille is fruit puree, which simply wouldn't hold on a classic mesh bottom. Most often, there is one pastille tray included in the supply package, but in some models, the set may include more.
We emphasize that using such accessories for more traditional ingredients (pieces of vegetables, fruits, etc.) is undesirable: in some cases, it reduces the drying efficiency, in others, it may lead to spoilage of the contents.

Mesh for herbs and spices
A mesh for herbs and spices is included in the delivery set of the food dehydrator.
These meshes are characterized by a finely porous structure to prevent herbs and spices from falling through the mesh holes. They are made of silicone or stainless steel, and more rarely of bamboo. There are also variants with non-stick coating, which prevents food from sticking to the surface of the mesh.

Keeping warm
The heat preservation function in dehydrators is designed to maintain a stable temperature after the drying process is completed. This function allows for keeping the temperature inside the device at a certain level, preventing the overcooling of products, which is especially important for long-term storage. The key point is preventing re-moisturizing, which helps avoid moisture that could lead to the growth of bacteria and mold.
Overheat protection
Security system that turns off the power to the dryer when the critical temperature in the working chambers is reached. This does not only save food from overdrying, but also prevents more serious consequences in the first place, such as a breakdown or even an ignition in the dryer, which is fraught with fire.
