 2.4 – Assembling the device
It is important to check the following points before installing the equipment:

; The floor surface on which the equipment is to be set up must be as level as possible.

; The equipment must be installed in a ventilated space, away from heat sources.

; We recommend that you keep plenty of free space around the enclosure allowing air circulation and access
to all the panels for cleaning. This will ensure the longevity of the equipment.

When the refrigerating unit is installed inside a room, aeration must be provided for.
The temperature of this room must not exceed 38°C in the case of a standard housed unit and 46°C in
the case of a High Ambient Temperature unit.

• Position the device on a level surface.

• Assemble the panels of the cabinets delivered unassembled. Refer to the various exploded views provided.
• Remove the protection film on the different surfaces without damaging the surface coating. A scratch on a
PVC coated panel can lead to corrosion.
• Adjust the cylinder feet to level and balance the cabinet, in order to ensure the proper flow of defrosting
water.

2.5 – Refrigeration connections

The device can be connected either on an independent refrigerating unit or on a central refrigerating plant or any
other system using a coolant (at -10°C) such as water with antifreeze added (on request).

Preliminary operations:

In the case of remote connection of the refrigerating system, the selection of the suction piping is essential. It will
have to be calculated according to its special features, its length, as well as the difference in level between the
refrigerating system and the heat exchanger inside the device.

This piping section must ensure a sufficient speed for the return of oil to the compressor and not generate a
head loss greater than 1.5°C.

The fluid speeds recommended in the suction conduits are as follows:

- Horizontal or descending lines: minimum 4 m/sec (max 8 m/sec)
- Rising lines: minimum 8 m/sec (max 12 to 13 m/sec)
- Never exceed 15 m/sec in order to avoid any abnormal noise (hissing).

Remote installation: in certain cases of installation with long pipes, you may be compelled to add oil to
compensate for the quantity of oil that may be continuously circulating or stuck to the walls of the tubes.

Add the absolute minimum as an excess of oil in the compressor can be as disastrous as a lack of oil. Beyond
10 m, it may be permitted to add oil according to the table below:
- Ø 1/2’’ 10 ml/m - Ø 5/8’’ 20 ml/m - Ø 3/4’’ 30 ml/m - Ø 7/8’’ 40 ml/m - Ø 1’’ 50 ml/m
(R-134a or R-404A compressors: polyolester 8685015

The various accessories provided for this purpose must be connected as shown in the views below:

The refrigerating unit condenser must be installed at a minimum distance of 300 mm of any obstacle that
could affect the air circulation.

Setting the expansion valve

The G expansion valve overheating is set from the factory. However, certain cases require additional adjustment
to obtain dryer or damper cold as required.
The general rule is to have a suction temperature between -14°C and -10°C for an ambient temperature of the
chamber of + 0°C for an installation equipped with a refrigerating unit. The compressor head must never be
allowed to freeze.

Adjusting the constant pressure valve

The expansion valve overheat does not need to be adjusted if it is connected to the central refrigerating plant.
The constant pressure valve K must be set to an evaporation temperature between –10°C and –15°C for an
ambient temperature in the chamber of +0°C.

In all cases: Choose the diameter of the refrigeration piping so that it does not affect the unit’s operation,
while making sure the suction piping is insulated.

 3.5 – Operating advice

• 3.5.1 – Loading, preliminary operations

Start your device in refrigeration, approximately one hour before its loading. This way the device will be very cold
at loading and will hold the dough faster.

• 3.5.2 – Loading the device

Before putting the products into the enclosure, turn off the device:

• Set the desired humidity level, by adjusting the moisture sensor button situated inside the enclosure when a
simple electronic panel is used

The humidity level setting will be refined according to the type and quality of product obtained.
For direct proofing, the humidity will have to generally be set at 80%.

Putting the products inside the enclosure:

• Load the equipment with the products and leave enough space in between them to provide excellent air
circulation. Use grille, layer (automatic), mesh or tray type supports.

3.6 – Warning

• Avoid opening the door (unless necessary)as this causes a change in the temperature and ambient
humidity, which can be harmful to the products.

• Avoid provisional storage of loaded supports outside the device. External air currents may cause significant
drying up of products.

• In some cases you may have condensation on walls and floor. This thermal shock phenomenon is normal.

• Avoid extended use under continuous refrigeration (greater than 60 hours) or the evaporator may freeze.

• Use the equipment only for its intended use. Do not try to overload it or use it with inappropriate products.

Ignoring these instructions causes a deterioration in the final quality of the products.

3.7 – Retarder proofing

This device is designed to retard the rising of bread and Viennese pastry products. You will get the best results
by adhering to the following recommendations.

Introduction

The method of proofing during controlled rising is based on the following simple technique: extend dough proving
beyond its normal duration by placing the lumps in an enclosure where the temperature and ambient humidity
level can be controlled at any time.

The device must ensure, under maximum safety conditions, the production of:

• COLD, necessary for cooling the dough to stop its proofing.

• HEAT, necessary for dough proofing.
• HUMIDITY, required in certain cases to avoid drying up of dough.

Page 19 02.2008 - 01429782.1 - AFV . AFB series

Recommendations

Controlled rising requires special good quality raw materials.

The cold temperature “puts the yeast to sleep”. It acts similarly on the dough components (especially gluten).
This is the reason why we recommend using excellent quality flour with high baking strength.
Using a proof cabinet as part of dough making involves a few important differences:

• Use strong flour, fresh yeast, or a starter.

• Slightly increase the salt dose.
• High-speed dough mixing is advisable.
• A short rising time of 20 to 25 minutes is necessary after mixing the dough, away from any drafts.
• The dough lumps should be baked right after leaving the proof cabinet.
• The cooking temperature should be less than the normal temperature (about 240°C).

We recommend maintaining the dough as it leaves the dough mixer at a temperature of about 22°C, in order to
obtain optimal proofing conditions.

The sum of the temperatures of the pouring water, the flour and the ambient air in the bakery should approach:

o 60 for normal dough mixing

o 58 for improved dough mixing

o 54 for high-speed dough mixing

to get a dough temperature of about 22°C.

 3.8 – Dough defects
Controlled rising can be an excellent methodology if applied rigorously while respecting proportioning.
Good bread dough must meet four main requirements:
1 - A good “texture”, or consistency, meaning little or no slackness during fermentation.
2 - Good extensibility.
3 – Appropriate hydration rate.
4 – It should not be sticky.
DEFECT
• Dough exhibiting too
much “stiffness”:
Condition of dough that
has lost its flexibility and
become too stiff.
• “Slacking” dough:
Condition of dough that is
too flexible and not stiff
enough.
• Short dough:
Dough that has a
tendency to shrink back
when spread.
• Fat dough:
Sticky dough with no
consistency
whatsoever.
• Breaking dough:
Dough that literally
breaks apart when
handled.
Page 21
OBSERVATIONS
• The dough becomes round and
does not raise much during
fermentation.
• The dough lumps are not very
extensible during shaping and
do not ferment easily in layers.
• During baking, the slashing
does not develop well and the
dough lump rounds up without
rising.
• French sticks arch.
• Dough looses some consistency
and sweats at the end of mixing.
• It is flat and sticky during
fermentation, sticks under
weighing and moulding.
• Proofing is fast, the loafs spread
in the oven and the slashing
breaks up.
• Breaks up during mixing.
Earthy during moulding.
• Dough shortens during
baking and develops little. Changes
colour with difficulty.
• Fat dough sticks to everything,
equipment, layer…
• Moulding is very difficult.
• Lumps grow “flat” during proving.
• Loaves turn red during baking
and slashes break up.
• Dough breaks apart from
fermentation to shaping. Stop
bread making if turning out to be
impossible.
02.2008 - 01429782.1 - AFV . AFB series
DEFECT ORIGIN
• Excess fermentation time. • For the dough at hand: do not roll
• Dough is too hot.
• Too much yeast.
• Excess improver. Dough is
too firm.
• On subsequent dough: reduce
• Flour comes from freshly
harvested wheat.

high.
• Presence of wild garlic in
the flour.
• Water too warm.
• Use of excessively
fermented dough during
mixing.
• Bug contaminated wheat
(rare).
• Sprouted wheat.
POSSIBLE CORRECTIVE
MEASURES
after weighing, tighten lightly at
moulding, separate the lumps on
the different layers. Bake at low
temperature. Slash deeply and
along the surface.
fermentation time, make softer
dough, use fresher water, reduce
amounts of yeast and improver.
• For the dough at hand: round the
lumps strongly, roll them tightly,
tighten in layers and make large
folds, bake at higher temperature,
make several shallow superficial
slashes.
• On subsequent dough: use
warmer water, add dough

• For the dough at hand: shorten
fermentation time, increase
proving time, bake at low
temperature.
• On subsequent dough: use
fresher water, avoid dough that is
too fermented.
• For the dough at hand: shorten
proving time, bake at low
temperature.
• On subsequent dough: use
fresher water, avoid dough that is
too fermented.
• Bake at very low temperature (200
to 220°C).
Cleaning and Hygiene

Always turn the equipment off before any maintenance operation

4.1 – Cleaning instructions

All cleaning products containing chlorine are prohibited

The use of detergents, scouring powder, abrasive products, thinners and all products containing chlorine are
strictly forbidden.
It is essential to use POA – POV certified maintenance products.
Use lukewarm soap water or any inert organic product with bactericidal properties.

The following limitations must be respected when cleaning PVC coated panels:
• Water pressure: maximum 1 bar
• Temperature: 25°C

Do not use highly aggressive degreasing additives. Do not use phosphoric acid based products. We
recommend:
• Ammonia: 10% solution
• Ethyl alcohol: 48% solution
• Phenolic derivative: 0.5% solution

Finally, whatever the product used for local and frequent cleaning, do not exceed 30 minutes of contact time and
follow up with fresh water rinsing.

Following these instructions will guarantee the longevity of your equipment.

4.2 – Daily cleaning

Internal equipment surfaces such as walls, stainless steel slide bars and door seals: all areas that can come in
contact with dough.

4.3 – Weekly cleaning

External equipment surfaces such as the control panel and walls must be dusted off.
The control panel electronic components must not come in contact with water. It may be cleaned with a dry cloth
or a pressurised aerosol gas.

4.4 – Monthly cleaning

The de-frosting water collection tray must be cleaned once a month with a sponge and soap water, or any
bactericidal product to avoid stagnant particles. The cleaning water evacuation orifice and hole must be neither
blocked nor restricted. It must be cleaned with a low pressure water jet (about 1 bar) or by pouring a bucket of
warm water in it.

The refrigerating unit: The airflow must be allowed to circulate freely around the refrigeration unit and through the
condenser. This should be checked on a monthly basis. The condenser must be permanently clean for
maximum equipment output.
Each month, you should dust off the condenser and rid it of all obstructions with a vacuum cleaner, a brush or a
flexible paintbrush.

We recommend annual servicing of the refrigerating unit.

Measures to limit flour dust emissions

Flour, the main component of dough, is also considered the main cause of respiratory afflictions like rhinitis and
asthma in the bread making industry.

Indeed, rising dust during flour handling is one of the causes of the different forms of rhinitis or even worse,
different types of asthma.

Below are some recommendations to limit flour dust creation as much as possible in the bakery:

• Use 25 kg bags instead of 50 kg and empty them in phases

• Put the open end of the bag on the dough mixer tub bottom and lift the bag gently by pulling on the other end
• Limit the fall height of the flour as much as possible
• Do not shake the empty bag, close it, and then fold gently by rolling it
• Pour flour after water in the dough mixer tub (and not the opposite);
• Spread the flour manually or with the sifter, without throwing it around
• Clean the work area with the dough cutter; do not use a brush or compressed air (blow gun);
• Separate the work clothes from civilian clothes
• Do not shake or brush work clothes, but wash them instead;
• Avoid wind drafts
• While using the dough mixer, use the programmed first speed operation for the first two mixing minutes. This
period corresponds to maximum flour dust emissions.
• While using the dough mixer, switch to first speed every time flour is added
• It is better to use a vacuum cleaner with a dust filter and to carry out cleaning activities in humid conditions
using a scraper instead of brushes or cloths
• Wear a protection mask during the most dust producing activities: Loading of the mixer tub, hydraulic divider
operation, flouring the dough rolls, etc...
• Use equipment especially designed to reduce dust emissions: a mixer equipped with an anti-dust lid, a
hydraulic divider with non-sticking treatment, etc…

There are other dusty substances that can be harmful or dangerous to the operator health; consult the raw
material supplier information to this effect.
