Electrolux Professional Combi Oven 227709 – SkyLine PremiumS, Electric Combi Oven 10GN2/1

Ten GN 2/1 tray positions and a 100 kg maximum load put the 227709 into main galley production rather than support duty. With a maximum electrical rating of 40.1 kW and a default draw of 37.4 kW on 380–415 V/3 ph/50–60 Hz, it is one of the major consumers on a catering distribution board.

On a ship this combination of volume and power has to be read against deck area, water plant and HVAC capacity. The cabinet footprint of 1090 mm width and 971 mm depth, at an external height of 1058 mm, makes this a relatively low, wide oven that can sit under a constrained deckhead or a service bridge, but it does claim over a metre of line length. At 182 kg net weight and 207 kg shipping, the deck structure, plinth or foundation and how the unit is fixed down need to be agreed with the yard at design stage, not left to the installer.

The oven expects incoming water through 3/4" connections in the 1–6 bar pressure range. The feed water must stay below 85 ppm chlorides and above 50 µS/cm conductivity. On a vessel running its own evaporators or reverse osmosis, this links the combi specification back to water treatment and any remineralisation, because the built-in steam generator and internal circuits are designed around that chemistry. The 50 mm drain connection is another small number with installation consequences, because it defines the minimum size of the grey-water line or deck drain branch that has to be taken to the unit.

In service, the 10 GN 2/1 capacity allows large batch loads up to the 100 kg maximum. A single cycle can carry production for a whole service, concentrating heat and moisture into that 1090 x 971 mm footprint. The built-in steam generator feeds both dry convection and combined convection and steam cycles, and humidity is governed by a Lambda sensor. Together with the core temperature probe, this gives tight control over core and chamber conditions, which is useful when mixed products share the load or when a management system requires documented, repeatable cooking.

The shipping volume of 1.59 m³ is relevant well before commissioning. Moving a crate of that volume and 207 kg through shore-side logistics, provision doors, lifts and internal stairways calls for a checked route; it is not a hand-carried appliance that can be threaded through tight corners on the day.

Build and control

• IPX5 rated against water ingress
• Rounded internal corners for cleaning
• HACCP data logging
• Touch-screen control panel
• USB port for HACCP data, programmes and software updates
• Network connectivity for remote monitoring
• Programmable recipe memory
• Core temperature probe
• Lambda sensor humidity control
• Self-diagnostic back-up mode
• MultiTimer for parallel cooking cycles
• Built-in steam generator
• Dry convection cycle
• Combined convection and steam cycle

This unit is a good fit where a galley needs to run multiple parallel cooking cycles, document them for HACCP and remote audit, and has the electrical and water infrastructure to support a 37.4 kW default load at 380–415 V/3 ph/50–60 Hz. It is the wrong choice for a pantry or small galley where the service can be covered by a smaller-format combi and where neither 40.1 kW of installed power nor a 1090 x 971 mm footprint can be justified.
