Electric convection oven FM industrial STF 21 BLACK

A high speed oven that layers microwave energy, forced convection and impingement jets to cook food in a fraction of the time a conventional oven requires. The microwave heats from within while hot air and high-velocity jets surround the food, sealing moisture and creating a crisp finish without drying the centre. The result is the speed of a microwave with the browning and texture of a traditional oven.

The operator places a single 300 × 300 mm tray on the rack, selects a stored recipe or sets time and temperature manually, then starts the cycle. The oven combines the three heat sources automatically, adjusting power levels as the food cooks. A high-resolution touch panel displays progress and prompts when the tray is ready to remove. HACCP data can be downloaded via USB for record-keeping.

The cabinet is finished in black and constructed from stainless steel. A cyclonic cooling system keeps the exterior cool to the touch and protects internal components. An integrated catalytic converter breaks down grease and odours, reducing the need for manual cleaning. The oven stands on adjustable feet and weighs 78 kg, making it stable on a worktop while still movable by two people.

Controls include a touch panel for recipe selection, manual programming and monitoring. The oven operates on a 230 V single-phase supply, suitable for standard UK commercial circuits. Total power draw is 3.75 kW, with 1 kW allocated to microwave and 2.2 kW to convection and impingement.

The footprint of 425 × 630 mm fits on most worktops without overhang. Maximum temperature of 275 °C enables baking, roasting and finishing at professional speeds.

Cleaning involves wiping the interior after use and running the catalytic converter periodically. The touch panel can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The recipe book stores up to 300 programmes, allowing consistent results across shifts.

The STF 21 is available in black. It is categorised under high speed ovens in the FM Industrial professional catering range.
