1.5.3. Power
If the line voltage for your LAC-7 Series oven varies more than 10% from the oven voltage
rating, electrical components such as relays and temperature controls may operate erratically.
If the line voltage is lower than the oven voltage rating, heat-up time may be significantly
longer and motors may overload or run hot
If the line voltage is higher than the nameplate rating, motors may run hot and draw excessive
amperage
*The overcurrent protection means provided by the building mains supply circuit shall be a
branch circuit rated protection device.
The LAC Series oven designed for 240 volts (see oven nameplate) will operate satisfactorily on a
minimum of 208 Volts, but will result in 25% reduced heater output. If your power characteristic is lower,
contact Despatch Industries. An option is available to regain the full heater power when operating on 208V.
The LAC 2-12 and LAC 2-18 must be hardwired to the electric supply using 10 AWG (8 AWG on
LAC2-18-7 208V full power option) or larger wires suitable for at least 75 °C (167 °F).
