Measuring 40 inches wide, 41 inches deep, and 56 inches tall, this floor-standing unit accommodates 5 full-size pans while maintaining a footprint suitable for most professional kitchen layouts. The stainless cavity construction provides durability and ease of cleaning, essential for busy production schedules.
Powered by a 15 kW electric system at 208V/3ph, the VC55ED requires a dedicated electrical circuit and proper hardwiring by a licensed electrician. The temperature range of 200–500 °F covers standard baking, roasting, and finishing tasks. The reversing fan accessory promotes uniform heat circulation throughout the cavity, reducing hot spots and improving consistency across all rack positions.
At 400 pounds, the unit requires appropriate floor support and adequate clearance for ventilation and service access.

Vulcan backs the VC55ED with a 1 year parts warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal commercial use.
