Convection oven FM industrial RX 424 PLUS

A convection oven circulates hot air with a fan, spreading heat evenly across every tray. This method eliminates cold spots, so batches bake at the same rate without turning or shuffling. The fan also shortens bake times by moving heat faster than still air can, and it lets the oven hold more trays without losing performance.

The RX 424 PLUS loads four GN1/1 wire trays spaced 80 mm apart. Set the temperature up to 250 °C, choose continuous mode or a timer from 0 to 60 minutes, and start the cycle. A reverse function alternates airflow direction to keep colour and texture uniform. When the timer ends, an alarm sounds and the interior lamp stays on so the operator can check the load without opening the door. A safety thermostat cuts power if the temperature exceeds the set limit.

The oven is built with a stainless-steel interior and exterior. A single door with a microphone seal holds heat in and reduces noise. The 3.8 kW element draws 230 V, so it plugs into a standard single-phase circuit found in most professional kitchens. The 60 kg weight allows two people to move the unit with a sack trolley, and the 700 × 710 × 540 mm footprint fits on a standard worktop or under a low shelf.

Controls include a rotary temperature dial, a timer knob, a reverse-function switch, a continuous-mode button, and an alarm mute. The interior lamp is controlled by the door micro-switch and stays on whenever the door is open.

Cleaning follows from the construction: remove the four wire trays and wash them separately. Wipe the stainless-steel interior and door with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry to prevent water marks. The fan and element are behind a removable panel; clean them with a soft brush to avoid damaging the heating coil. The safety thermostat and alarm require no routine maintenance beyond checking that the alarm sounds at the end of a timed cycle.

The RX 424 PLUS is a single model with no variants. It is listed in the bakery section of the FM Industrial catalogue.
