As states and countries begin mandating new green initiatives for reducing the local carbon footprint of emissions, a commercial baking oven manufacturer approached Thermal Products to solve their customers inquiries into carbon friendly heating sources.
One way of achieving this would be decarbonizing their ovens and moving to Indeeco Electric Process Heaters. Thermal Products Inc with our partners at Indeeco Electric Heaters was there to answer the needs for both fully electric or hybrid heat sources in their ovens.
This oven manufacturer had a standard 40-foot-long tunnel oven in which uncooked pies are loaded into a slow-moving conveyor through a fan forced convection oven at a 400F set point. The heater design needed to handle varying through put speeds, which was achieved through an Indeeco SCR Control panel, also reducing operating electrical costs.
The SCR Control panel accurately controlled the bank of 300 kW process air heaters and reduced energy usage once the tunnel oven was at speed and temperature. Keeping the same footprint was essential in keeping costs to manufacture in line with existing design and Indeeco was able to achieve this.
