Electric convection oven Inoxtrend PPDA220E

A convection oven moves hot air continuously around the cooking chamber, transferring heat faster and more evenly than still air. A powerful fan draws air across heating elements, then circulates it through the cavity, eliminating cold spots and speeding up cooking times. The addition of steam injection introduces moisture into the airflow, allowing the oven to roast, bake, steam or combine both methods in a single cycle. This versatility handles everything from crisp pastry to tender joints without drying the food or requiring separate appliances.

The PPDA 220E is loaded by sliding full-size gastronorm trays lengthways into the chamber. A trolley supplied as standard holds the trays at 65 mm intervals, so twenty GN 2/1 trays can be cooked simultaneously. The operator selects the cooking mode—convection, steam or combi—then sets the temperature between 30 °C and 270 °C and the duration on mechanical dials. An automatic reverse fan ensures the air flow changes direction periodically, distributing heat uniformly across every tray. Humidity control adjusts the microclimate inside the chamber, balancing moisture to achieve a crisp crust on bread or a juicy interior on meat without manual intervention.

Stainless steel forms the exterior, interior and all working surfaces, chosen for resistance to corrosion, heat and daily cleaning. The 970 mm width, 1350 mm depth and 1880 mm height create a footprint that fits standard kitchen layouts while leaving clearance for door swing and ventilation. A 400 V three-phase supply powers the 52 kW heating elements, matching the electrical infrastructure of professional kitchens and providing the rapid response needed for high-volume service.

Cleaning follows from the construction: stainless steel surfaces wipe down with detergent and water, while the steam injection system reduces baked-on residue by keeping food surfaces moist during cooking. The fan and heating elements are accessed through a removable panel, allowing periodic inspection and maintenance without specialist tools.

The PPDA 220E is part of the Inoxtrend PROEVO+ series, designed for intensive use in professional kitchens.
