Product Detail
Commercial Retarder Proofer
Plan a commercial retarder proofer around the dough schedule, tray or rack standard, retarding phase, proofing conditions, load recovery, refrigeration and utilities.
Overview
Product Overview
Retarder proofers combine refrigerated dough holding with controlled proofing so bakeries can delay fermentation and move into a scheduled warm, humid proofing stage. Single-door, double-door and split-door cabinet formats remain configurations within one family. This family is separate from the existing warm Dough Proofer because refrigeration, defrost, condensate and programmed transitions create a different procurement intent. Final temperature and humidity bands, accuracy, refrigerant, load recovery, water, drain and electrical data require selected-supplier confirmation.

Technical Data
Specifications
Reference Configuration
Direct catalog examples across separate machines show 18/32/36 trays, 220 V, about 2.3–3 kW, roughly 610–950 W × 950–1200 D × 2050 H mm and 400 × 600 mm trays. Catalog temperature labels conflict or lack clear semantics, so they are excluded from definitive public claims.
Configuration Options
18-, 32- or 36-tray direct-source examples; Single-door cabinet; Double-door cabinet; Upper/lower split-door cabinet; Refrigerated retarding plus warm proofing; Refrigerated/frozen program subject to confirmation; 400 × 600 mm tray examples

| Official programmable retarder-proofer architecture | Programmed temperature/humidity and schedule; multiple rack widths/depths and refrigeration arrangements — Feature architecture only until selected supplier matrix |
Reference configurations are not fixed SourcePro promises. Final model, capacity, dimensions, power, utilities, safety and compliance are confirmed after inquiry and technical review.
Project Confirmation
What We Confirm for Your Project
Dough type, fermentation method and target schedule
Tray or rack dimensions, count, spacing and load pattern
Retarding setpoint and hold time
Proofing temperature, humidity and required recovery
Program steps, alarms, data logging and controller preference
Refrigeration type, refrigerant, ambient and heat rejection
Water, drain, condensate, voltage, phase, frequency and destination compliance
Commercial Retarder Proofer FAQ
Is a retarder proofer the same as a warm dough proofer?
No. A retarder proofer adds refrigeration and scheduled transitions before warm proofing. Refrigeration, defrost and condensate create a separate buyer intent.
Can the cabinet refrigerate or freeze dough?
The selected program and refrigeration architecture determine the supported range. Ambiguous catalog labels are excluded until written confirmation.
How many trays can it hold?
Tray count depends on tray dimensions, spacing, door arrangement and usable interior. Direct examples show several counts, but final capacity must be confirmed.
How are humidity and temperature controlled?
Controller, sensor, humidification and airflow vary by series. Setpoints, accuracy and recovery are confirmed for the selected configuration.
Which site utilities are required?
Confirm electrical supply, refrigeration or remote connection, water, drain, condensate, heat rejection, ambient conditions and destination compliance.
