Temperature Control Procedures
Typical cooking temperature for pizza is 250-350° C and for breads 200-250° C. The burner
controls on this oven have been designed to enable the operator to fire the oven using
Gas, Wood or a combination of both.
Using Gas only
In this situation the burner will start on High Flame (intensive flame) and heat the oven to
the preset (SV) temperature on the Digital Temperature controller. Once the oven has
reached this temperature, the burner will automatically turn to Low Flame (less intensive,
maintaining flame).
This flame will maintain the oven temperature until the temperature starts to fall below the
set point (SV) at which time the High Flame will cut in and heat the oven back to set point
(SV).
Should the temperature continue to rise on Low Flame, the gas burner will cease to burn
at approximately 20° C above the set point temperature. It will automatically start again
once the temperature falls below the set point temperature. This cycle will continue as
long as the oven is in the ON position.
Using Gas and Wood
The above mentioned cycle is the same if using a combination of both fuels. However,
once the oven has reached set point and turned to Low Flame, should the temperature
continue to rise, (due to the burning wood) the gas burner will cease to burn at
approximately 20° C above the set point temperature. The Gas system will then be in
standby mode, waiting for the temperature to fall below the set point temperature. It will
automatically start again once the temperature falls below the set point temperature.
It is strongly advised not to burn wood on top of the Thermocouple or erratic Gas
operation will result.
Using Wood only
Using Wood only in an oven that has a gas back-up system is quite an acceptable and
common practice. The Digital Temperature controller can tell you the present oven
temperature (PV) when the operating switch is set in the CONTROL position.
This is very useful for gauging the fuel requirements of the oven.
