Ten 200 lb. capacity carriers with roller surfaces, 31" wide x 14" long, are supported on each side by a heavy-duty roller chain. The carriers are driven through the conveyor by a 3/4-HP drive motor controlled by a variable frequency drive. Fifteen loading baskets are included with the oven. A loading table with rollers lines up with the rollers on the carriers and a latch holds the baskets in place on the carrier. Controls onboard No. 961 include a digital temperature controller, recirculating blower airflow safety switch, 10" diameter circular chart recorder and a manual reset excess temperature controller with separate contactors.
