 Installation, Operation, and Care of
AHP SERIES PROOFERS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL
The AHP Series Roll-In Proof Boxes proof racks of dough products under controlled temperature and
humidity prior to baking. The proof boxes have three basic equipment options: Proofers (AHP models)
are equipped to proof dough only; Thaw-Proofers (AHTP models) are equipped to proof and/or to
re-awaken frozen dough; and Proofer-Retarders (AHPR models) are equipped to proof the dough and
then chill it or slowly thaw and then proof the dough prior to delayed baking. A programmable 7 day
time switch controls proof and retard cycles on AHPR models; two individual timers, operating
sequentially, control thaw and then proof cycles on AHTP models. All AHP Series Proofers have easy-
to-clean stainless steel interior and exterior panels with sandwiched urethane foam insulation.

Different size proof boxes accommodate rack(s) as follows:

 INSTALLATION
ASSEMBLY

Models AHP1S, AHPR1S, and AHTP1S are shipped completely assembled from the factory. Other
AHP Series Proofers are shipped knocked-down for installation on the job site. Ceiling and wall panels
are locked together with cam-locks; the floor is fastened to the wall panels with stainless steel screws.
Correctly install proofers following these step-by-step instructions:
1. If there are two or more back panels, place the back panels [B] in vertical, upright position. Insert
the hex wrench in the lock hole and turn clockwise until the locking arm strikes the pin in the adjacent
panel, locking panels together. If lock fails to engage, turn wrench counterclockwise and again turn
wrench clockwise until panels are properly locked together.
2. Tilt the assembled back panel(s) and lay them on the floor with the exterior side down.
3. Select the left side wall panel [S1]; place it in position with the back panel assembly; and, lock them
together with the cam lock by turning the hex wrench clockwise. Make sure top and bottom edges
of side and back panels are flush.
4. Repeat step 3 with the right side wall panel [S2].
5. Fasten the floor to the bottom of the back and side panels with stainless steel screws.
6. Place the roof panel [C] in position with the walls. First lock the roof panel [C] and the left side wall
panel [S1] by turning the hex wrench clockwise; then, lock the roof panel [C] and the right side wall
panel [S2] by turning the hex wrench counterclockwise.
7. The proofer box can now be put in an upright position.
8. For AHP and AHTP models: Lock the roof panel [C] to the back wall assembly by turning the hex
wrench clockwise.
9. For AHPR models:
a. Unlock the roof and side panel cam locks and install the mullion module (see pages 19 – 21).
b. Lock the roof and side panel cam locks.
c. Seal all joints between panels, ceiling, and floor with an NSF approved sealant, provided.
d. Assemble brass couplers, sight glass, and filter to the refrigeration lines on the evaporator and
condensing unit.
e. Install permagum around the refrigeration lines, add fiberglass insulation, and install sheet metal
covers on the ceiling (inside) and roof (outside) where refrigeration lines go through the ceiling.
f. Set the condensing unit on the top of the cabinet with the condensing coil facing front and the
refrigeration lines aligned. Fasten the condensing unit in place.
g. Connect the electric wires from the condensing unit to the controls: Pass wires through ceiling
to the opening for the controls and attach them to the terminal block. (220Volt: Wire 12 to TB12,
Wire 16 to TB16, and Gnd to Gnd. 120Volt: Wire N to TBN, Wire 16 to TB16 and Gnd to Gnd).
h. After completing steps 11 - 21, charge the refrigeration system with appropriate R22 or R134
refrigerant and install the condensing unit cover to the front at the top of the cabinet. For all
models: Low pressure Cut-Out = 13 psig; High pressure Cut-In = 22 psig.
10. For AHP and AHTP models: Seal all joints between panels, ceiling, and floor with an NSF approved
silicone sealant, provided. Slide the humidifying unit into place and fasten it to the ceiling and the
floor; the top and bottom cover plates of the control panels should be removed to allow access to
the mounting slots. It is recommended that the side cover of the humidifying unit be removed during
installation. On completion, seal humidifying unit at ceiling and floor using an NSF approved
silicone sealant, provided.

Steps 11 - 22 apply to all models:
11. Mount the bumper(s) at the upper part of the humidifying unit; fasten at front and back of control
panel by screwing bracket(s) to the wall with two stainless steel screws, each. Also mount the
bumpers on the back and side panels. Seal bumpers to walls and doors with an NSF approved
silicone sealant, provided.
12. Mount the hinge pin assembly to the front side wall(s). Place one nylon spacer behind each hinge
pin assembly.
13. Mount the white plastic halves with spacers on the door(s) but do not tighten screws.
14. Hang the door on the hinge pin assemblies: Carefully align the door with the door frame; press
against the door to make sure the seals are tight against the frame; and, tighten the white plastic
halves of the hinges making sure they are straight. If there are two or more doors, mount them in
the same way.
15. Mount the outside door handle/bumper and the inside bumper by screwing to the door and sealing
with an NSF approved silicone sealant, provided.
16. Mount the bracket for the door closer on the top of the door. Mount the hydraulic door closer (see
Fig. 47 on page 33.
17. Place the drain pan at the bottom of the humidifying unit. Fasten the plastic hose to the drain pan
with a hose clamp. Remove insulation from the knockout on either the left or right side wall panels;
pass the hose through the hole and continue to a floor drain. Refer to page 6.
18. Install the water supply line and solenoid assembly. A water filter (not supplied) is recommended
to remove particulates ahead of the spray nozzles in the humidifier. The water pressure should be
at least 43 psig (2 kg/cm2). Refer to page 6.
19. Install ramp(s).
20. Refer to page 6 for Electrical Connection information.

PROGRAMMING A PAUSE OR TIME DELAY BETWEEN TWO PROGRAMS

To program a pause between the stop time of one program and the start time of the next, set the stop
time prior to the next start time as shown in the following examples:

EXAMPLE MODE START DAY START TIME STOP DAY STOP TIME

1 P1: Proofer Monday 8:00 AM Monday 5:00 PM

2 P2: Retarder Monday 5:30 PM Tuesday 7:30 AM
3 P1: Proofer Tuesday 8:00 AM Tuesday 5:00 PM

Between the stop time for example 1 and the start time for example 2, a 30 minute delay has been
scheduled. Also, a 30 minute delay is scheduled between the stop time for example 2 and the start
time for example 3. During this time delay, the fans will continue to run for a maximum of 30 minutes.

PLANNING YOUR WEEKLY SCHEDULE

If several days of the week have the same schedule, they can all be in the same program. When
selecting the start days of the week, merely repeat the selection (use the Day Shift key followed by the
Day Set / Reset key repeatedly). Then select the start hour and minutes only once since they are to
be the same. Do the same for the stop days of the week and the stop hours and minutes. For example,
if the P1 Proofer function were to be the same as example 1 above for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday the final set displays would look like Figs. 32, 33.

PROGRAMMING AN OPERATION FOR LONGER THAN ONE DAY

The timer can be programmed to start one day and stop several days later. For example, to start at
8:30 AM Monday and stop at 11:30 AM Wednesday, the final set displays would look like Figs. 36 & 37.
Use the Day Set / Reset key to remove the Monday designation when setting the stop day. Then use
the Day Shift key twice and the Day Set / Reset key once to fix the stop day on Wednesday.

RETARDING

The retarder temperature is usually set at 38°F. Defrosting frozen dough at retarder temperatures
takes 6 hours minimum; dough products can be stored for as long as 48 hours in the retarder using the
cool humid air so dough products do not dry out. Dough should not be refrozen after thawing. The
retarder slows the yeast fermentation process, reduces gas formation, and inhibits raising of dough.

Products removed from the retarder should be left at room temperature for 5 – 7 minutes before being
put in the proofer. This will reduce moisture condensation when cold metal pans are placed in the warm
humid proofer.

PROOFING

Controlled temperature and humidity in the proofer promotes yeast fermentation which generates gas
and causes the dough to rise. Proofing takes from 45 – 60 minutes depending on the product. A
temperature setting of 95°F and humidity at 85% are typical but will vary slightly depending on the
product being proofed. The chart below is for guidelines only — ask your dough supplier for technical
product reports to set up your own chart.

CLEANING

Clean the inside of the cabinet and the doors weekly with a warm water solution of mild household liquid
dishwashing detergent (such as Palmolive green or Ivory). Do not use anything containing grit,
abrasive materials, bleach, or harsh chemicals. Be cautious with new or improved formulas; use only
products approved for stainless steel. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean soft cloth. Do not use
steel wool to clean surfaces.

Remove the filter and rinse clean weekly. Replace filter when necessary.

NOTE: Failure to follow use, care and maintenance instructions may void your Hobart warranty.
