Heating element LF L3755305

A heating element converts electrical energy into heat within a steam oven. It sits submerged in the oven's water reservoir, raising the temperature until the water turns to steam. This steam then circulates through the oven cavity, cooking food evenly without drying it out. The element's power determines how quickly the oven reaches operating temperature and how consistently it maintains steam levels during service.

To use the element, first ensure the oven is disconnected from the power supply. The old element is removed by unfastening its mounting flange, then the new element is positioned so its flange aligns with the oven's fitting. The 70x22 mm flange secures the element in place, creating a watertight seal. Once installed, the oven is reconnected to the 230 V supply, and the element begins heating the water as soon as the oven is switched on.

The element is constructed with a heating coil encased in a corrosion-resistant sheath, designed to withstand repeated exposure to water and steam. Its internal diameter of 230 mm allows it to fit the water reservoir of compatible GARBIN steam ovens, while the overall height of 78 mm ensures it sits at the correct depth for efficient heat transfer.

The 4000 W power rating means the element draws a significant load, so it must be connected to a circuit capable of handling the demand without tripping. The 230 V specification matches the standard voltage for professional kitchen equipment in the UK, ensuring compatibility with existing electrical setups.

Cleaning involves regular descaling to prevent mineral build-up from reducing efficiency. The element should be inspected periodically for signs of wear or corrosion, particularly around the flange where leaks could develop. No additional maintenance is required beyond what the oven manufacturer recommends for the water reservoir.

This heating element is a direct replacement for GARBIN steam oven models 101 EX, 101 GX, 104 EX, 104 PX, 61 EX, 61 GX, 64 EX and 64.
