Cooling Fan
Supplies fresh air into
the component
chamber to cool down
the electrical
components. The fan
should run counter
clockwise (looking
down from above). The
fan will continue to run
until the oven is
switched off after
cleaning cycle.
Motor has internal
Thermal Overload
Protection on the Live
Supplies fresh air into
the component
chamber to keep the
electrical components
cool. Fan should run
counter clockwise.
Draws air in through
the filter under the
door and out the rear

VFD
(Motor Speed
Controller)
Takes 1PH AC supply
voltage and produces a
3PH DC square wave
frequency output.
3ph fan supply
protected individually
by 3x 5A ceramic on
board fuses.
Provides an DC, 3-
phase switched mode
drive to the AC
convection motor and
is controlled by a 0-10
VDC signal from the
relay board (IO). The
frequency output
allows the Main Blower
Motor to run at
variable speeds
1ph power supply.
Control Signal Voltage
10VDC output to the IO
Board, 2-10VDC return
