Introduction

Oven Description and Specifications

Cooking in a convection oven differs from cooking in a conventional deck or range oven since heated air is constantly recirculated over the product by a fan in an enclosed chamber. The moving air conĆ tinually strips away the layer of cool air surroundĆ ing the product, quickly allowing the heat to peneĆ trate. The result is a high quality product, cooked at a lower temperature in a shorter amount of time.

NOTE: *Electric connection wiring is sized for 90_C copper wire at 125% of rated input. Refer to Page 4

in this manual for Electrical Connection specifications.

NOTE: Double units can have phase loads partially equalized by matching lines during hookĆup. Otherwise

double unit load ratings are twice the above data.

Blodgett convection ovens represent the latest adĆ vancement in energy efficiency, reliability, and ease of operation. Heat normally lost, is recircuĆ lated within the cooking chamber before being vented from the oven: resulting in substantial reĆ ductions in energy consumption and enhanced oven performance.

Installation

Oven Location

The well planned and proper placement of your oven will result in long term operator convenience and satisfactory performance.

The XCELĆ50EC requires 0" (0 cm) clearances beĆ tween the oven sides and back and any combusĆ tible or nonĆcombustible construction. However, we recommend that adequate clearance be mainĆ tained for proper servicing.

Keep the oven area free and clear of all combusĆ tibles such as paper, cardboard, and flammable liquids and solvents.

To ensure proper operation, ventilation must not be obstructed in any way. Tripping of the blower motor thermal overload protective device is caused by excessive ambient temperature on the control side of the oven resulting from insufficient ventilation. This condition must be corrected imĆ mediately to avoid permanent damage to the oven.

Before making any utility connections to this oven, check the rating plate to be sure the oven specifications are compatible with the electriĆ cal services supplied for the oven.

NOTE: The rating plate is attached to the back of

the oven.

ADJUSTMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH INITIAL INSTALLATION

Each oven, and its component parts, have been thoroughly tested and inspected prior to shipĆ ment. However, it is often necessary to further test or adjust the oven as part of a normal and proper installation. These adjustments are the responsiĆ bility of the installer, or dealer. Since these adjustĆ ments are not considered defects in material or workmanship, they are not covered by the Original Equipment Warranty. They include, but are not limited to:

D leveling D tightening of fasteners.

No installation should be considered complete without proper inspection, and if necessary, adĆ justment by qualified installation or service perĆ sonnel.
