The Moffat P85M8 Mobile Heated Holding Proofing Cabinet
The Moffat Turbofan P85M8 is a mobile cabinet that does two jobs with one selector switch: it proofs dough before the bake and holds finished product hot after it. Inside, 8 full-size sheet pans or 16 half-size pans ride on stainless steel side racks at 3" spacing, which is enough room for a full production run of rolls, croissants, or pizza dough in a footprint under 36" wide. It plugs into a 110-120V receptacle with the factory-fitted NEMA 5-15P cordset, so there is no hardwiring to schedule before you can use it.
Off, Proof, and Hold Modes on One Selector Switch
Turn the selector to Proof for warm, humid air that brings dough up before baking. Turn it to Hold and the same cabinet keeps cooked product at serving temperature through the service window. The mechanical thermostat covers 65°F to 185°F, wide enough for a gentle proof at the low end and hot holding at the top. Because the controls are knobs and a switch instead of a programmed touchscreen, a new hire can run it after one walkthrough. Indicator lights on the panel show when the air heating and the humidity tank are on, and a cabinet thermometer shows the actual temperature inside.
Humidity Level Control with Auto Water Fill
A separate humidity control lets you set how much moisture goes into the cabinet, so dough surfaces stay supple instead of drying out and crusting before they reach the oven. The auto-fill water system is standard: connect a cold water line to the 3/4" GHT fitting and the humidity tank keeps itself topped up. That replaces the manual routine of checking and refilling a water pan mid-shift. When it is time to clean, the tank comes out without tools.
Low Velocity Fan for Even Conditions on All 8 Levels
A single-speed, low velocity fan circulates air gently around the cabinet. The goal is consistent temperature and humidity from the top rack to the bottom, so the trays you pull from different levels are at the same stage. Full double skin construction and a continuous door seal help the cabinet hold those conditions between door openings.
304 Stainless Steel Interior and a Full Glass Door
The interior cabinet is 304 stainless steel, with stainless steel on the front, sides, top, control panel, and door frame. Unlike painted or aluminum liners, stainless stands up to constant humidity and daily wipe-downs. The side racks lift out completely, which gives you open access to every interior surface. Dual halogen lamps and the 0.2" thick glass door let you check the proof at a glance without opening the door and dumping heat and moisture.
Mobile Base That Works Alone or Under a Turbofan Oven
Four 3" casters carry the cabinet: two front swivel casters with dual wheels and swivel locks, plus two rigid casters at the rear. Roll it out to clean behind it, then lock it in place. The cabinet runs as a standalone unit or as the base in a system installation with Turbofan E35D and E35T convection ovens. The door is hinged on the left as shipped and can be converted to right-hand hinge in the field to suit your line.
