Everlasting RPE2790 Retarder Prover 1043mm Deep

The Everlasting RPE2790 is the deeper of the two RPE retarder provers, supplied with a kit for 406 x 720 mm trays at one per level and convertible without tools to take two 600 x 400 mm baking trays instead. It manages temperature, humidity and time from -10°C to +40°C in a 1043 mm deep cabinet.

Why operators choose the RPE2790

• Controlled fermentation, not just cold — the cabinet manages temperature, humidity and time together. That is what separates a retarder prover from a fridge: dough can be held back overnight and brought to full prove on a schedule rather than on whatever the room is doing.
• -10°C to +40°C in one cabinet — the same unit retards below freezing point and proves at bakery temperature, so a single machine covers the whole overnight cycle instead of moving dough between two.
• Monoblock unit with an internal evaporator — the refrigeration is a single block with the evaporator reachable from inside, which is what makes service and cleaning practical once the cabinet is installed against a wall.
• Two tray formats, no tools to change — it arrives set for 406 x 720 mm (16 x 29 inch) trays, one per level, and converts to take two 600 x 400 baking trays per level without tools. A bakery running both formats does not have to choose at the point of purchase.
• R290 rather than R452a — this cabinet runs on R290, a hydrocarbon refrigerant with a very low global warming potential. The narrower RPE1790 uses R452a - worth knowing if your service contractor stocks one and not the other.

Specifications

Venue suitability

Suits bakeries and patisseries working in the larger 406 x 720 mm tray format, and any operation that wants the option of both tray sizes in one cabinet. It is 300 mm deeper than the RPE1790, so confirm the floor plan before specifying it.

Compare it with the rest of the prover range, or see the wider bakery equipment catalogue.

Installation & delivery

The cabinet must be connected to a 3/4" BSP water connection by a licensed plumber - this is not a plug-in-and-go machine. In a hard-water area we recommend fitting a water filter on that supply to protect the humidification components; scale is the most common cause of premature failure in a prover. Delivered Australia-wide on a tail-lift vehicle; check door and lift access against the 2050 mm height before delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What tray sizes does the RPE2790 take?

It is supplied with a kit for 406 x 720 mm (16 x 29 inch) trays at one per level, and can be converted without tools to take two 600 x 400 mm baking trays per level.

Q: How is it different from the RPE1790?

It is 1043 mm deep against 743 mm, it is set up for the larger 406 x 720 mm tray rather than 600 x 400, and it runs on R290 where the RPE1790 uses R452a. Width and height are the same on both at 790 x 2050 mm.

Q: Does it need a plumber?

Yes. It must be connected to a 3/4 inch BSP water connection by a licensed plumber, and we recommend a water filter on that supply in a hard-water area.

Q: What refrigerant does it use?

R290, a hydrocarbon refrigerant with very low global warming potential. Your refrigeration contractor should be told before the service visit, as handling requirements differ from the HFC blends.

Q: What temperature range does it cover?

-10C to +40C, covering overnight retarding and a full prove in the same cabinet.

Q: How heavy is it?

191 kg net. Allow for a tail-lift delivery and a clear path to the installed position.
