E31 convection oven (Applies to units from S/N 40423)
The E31 Turbofan convection oven features
multi-function operator controls for which a
correct understanding of their operation is
required before carrying out any service or
fault repair work. The control device functions
are explained as follows:
A power switch on the control panel isolates
all to the controls of the oven. With the power
switch Off all functions of the oven are
inoperable.
With the power switch On (illuminated) power
is directly supplied to the 60 minute bake
timer, steam (water injection) switch, door
microswitch, light switch, and the temperature
control circuit. Accordingly the oven
circulation fan will operate when the door is
closed, and with door open the oven light will
come on and the circulation fan will shut
down, as these are controlled via the door
microswitch. The control panel light switch
will turn the oven light on when the door is
closed only when the light switch is held in.
The 60 minute timer is a mechanical timer and
can therefore be operated with the oven’s
power switch On or Off. However, only with
the oven’s power switch On will the switch
contacts of the 60 minute timer turn on the
time-up buzzer and illuminate the time-up
indicator on the control panel. The buzzer
and time-up indicator provide indication that
the time setting has run down to zero and at
this point will remain On continuously until the
60 minute timer has been manually set back
to the Off (vertical) position. The 60 minute
timer does not control any other part of the
oven’s operating system as this timer is
independent of the temperature control and
heating system.
The steam (water injection) switch on the
control panel can be operated whenever the
power switch is On. The switch is momentary
like the light switch and when depressed, will
operate the electric solenoid valve at the rear
of the oven and inject water into the water
trough at the bottom of the left hand side rack
in the oven. Releasing the steam button will
close the solenoid valve. This feature is used
to instantaneously add moisture into the oven
cavity, or to introduce a reservoir of water in
the water trough to maintain humidity in the
oven chamber and minimise product’s
moisture loss during cooking.
The temperature control of this oven is with a
capillary type thermostat which can be set to a
required cooking temperature, or set to the
Grill/Broil position to provide top browning or
grilling/broiling in the oven.
The thermostat switch has a separate switch
body assembled onto the front from the shaft
assembly and when the thermostat is set to a
cooking temperature, one set of contacts is
closed to switch power from the oven
thermostat to the bottom heating element in
the oven. The second switch contact of this
switch assembly remains open in this setting
and isolates power from the top element inner
coil. The top element outer coil is directly
switched on from the oven thermostat.
Accordingly only the top outer element and
the bottom element are used when a cooking
temperature is selected. The control panel
indicator light above the thermostat knob
cycles On and Off with the thermostat to
indicate when the elements are on and the
oven is heating.
When the thermostat control is set to the Grill
position the first switch contact opens and the
second switch contact closes. This
arrangement allows power to be provided to
the top element inner coil when the thermostat
is On, and isolates power from going to the
bottom heating element. The top element
outer coil which is directly fed from the oven
thermostat switch is therefore On in
conjunction with the top element inner coil
when the thermostat is set to the Grill position.
As both the top inner and outer element coils
are thermostatically controlled, the elements
will cycle On/Off with the door closed as the
thermostat setting in the Grill position is 300°C
(600°F). If the Grill position is selected with
the door open, the elements will remain On
continuously and the circulation fan will be
turned Off. The control panel Grill indicator
will illuminate when the thermostat is set to
the Grill position and will cycle On and Off
with the main heating indicator light.
The E31 Turbofan convection oven features a
Roast-and-Hold system which can be used to
automatically set the oven to a fixed holding
temperature at the end of a timed cooking
period. When the Roast-and-Hold switch is
turned On the switch will illuminate and turn
on a mini-contactor found on the inside of the
control panel. When the contactor is switched
On a normally closed switch pole on the
E31 convection oven (Applies to units from S/N 40423)
contactor is open and the normal power
supply to the oven thermostat is isolated. A
second normally open switch pole is closed
and this provides power to the 3 hour roast
timer.
If the roast timer is in the Hold (vertical)
position the timer switch contacts will be in
their normally closed position and supply
power directly to the Hold thermostat located
behind the control panel. The Hold
thermostat is factory set to 75°C (167°F) and
will directly supply power to the bottom
heating element as required to maintain its
preset temperature.
If the main thermostat is turned On, power will
also be supplied to the top outer element coil
through the first switch contact of the
thermostat front switch assembly. In this case
the thermostat heating light will also cycle On/
Off as the Hold thermostat maintains
temperature.
In the Roast-and Hold mode the 3 hour timer
can be set to a selected roasting time. During
this time period the normally open switch
contacts of the timer are closed. The timer
has two change over switches and in this
position one is used to supply power to its
timing motor and the other is used to switch
power directly to the main oven thermostat.
During the 3 hour timer run-down period the
oven temperature will be controlled by the
main oven thermostat to the set temperature
and operate as previously described.
When the 3 hour timer has run down and
reached the Hold position the two switch
contacts change over to their normally closed
position which isolates power from the timer
motor and the oven thermostat. It also
switches power back to the oven hold
thermostat. At this point the temperature
control is now maintained by the hold
thermostat as previously described. To
cancel the hold circuit the Roast-and-Hold
switch is turned Off. This turns off the
contactor which removes power from the 3
hour timer and closes the contactor pole on
the contactor that feeds the main oven
thermostat.
The factory preset hold thermostat can be
adjusted as required to change the holding
temperature if necessary. Refer Service
section for this procedure.
The following Troubleshooting Guide should
be used to identify any incorrect oven
operation. On correct identification of the
operating fault the Troubleshooting Guide will
make reference to the corrective action
required, or refer to the Fault Diagnosis
section and/or Service section to assist in
correction of the fault.
