Uniform, Accurate and Reliable Temperature Control

  • Available with profiling or single setpoint temperature controls
  • Horizontal air flow assures uniform thermal performance under all loading conditions.
  • Double plenum design with removable for thorough inner chamber cleaning.
  • Exclusive Blue M Eterna heating elements - the most reliable available, with heavy-gauge high temperature nickel chromium wire, low-watt density for longer service life, standard air flow switch on three-phase models to protect oven and product, and premium alumina ceramic element insulators.
  • Blue M one-pass air flow controls your profile, including cool down with infinitely variable control from full recirculation to full one pass, and optional motorized damper for automatic operation.
  • Direct drive blower multi-blade centrifugal blower with high-volume air delivery. dynamically balanced for minimum noise.

Standard Mechanical Convection Industrial Oven Options

  • Nickel plated wire rod or stainless steel slotted shelves
  • Door switch
  • Motorized intake damper (two-position or proportional)
  • Welded and sealed inner chamber
  • 24-hour, 7-day digital process timer
