Invoq Hybrid Combi Oven 20 Grid 1/1 GN Roll-In

The Invoq Hybrid 20-grid combi oven is a large-capacity roll-in unit that combines a boiler steam system and an injection steam system within a single chamber. Rather than switching between the two, it runs both simultaneously, delivering fast and consistent high-density steam saturation across a full 20-grid load. Integrated sensors monitor conditions throughout each cook cycle, and automated water management handles inlet and drain flow without requiring constant operator input.

At this capacity, the hybrid steam approach makes a practical difference in sustained production environments. Injection-only units at 20-grid scale can struggle with recovery under continuous heavy steaming loads; the addition of the boiler element helps maintain stable steam saturation without the lag. The roll-in rack configuration means pre-loaded trolleys can be wheeled directly into the chamber, which reduces handling time between batches and cuts the physical demands on kitchen staff during busy service periods.

The key operational advantages this configuration offers:

• Hybrid steam system handles both delicate and high-density steaming without compromise
• Roll-in rack operation reduces batch turnaround time and physical handling
• Automated cleaning system manages water and energy use without manual intervention
• Integrated sensor monitoring maintains consistent results across a full 20-grid load
• Combined boiler and injection steam supports recovery under sustained production demand

This is a substantial piece of equipment at 288kg, and installation requires careful advance planning. Floor loading capacity, drainage provision, and water supply quality all need to be confirmed before the unit arrives on site. Hard water areas will very likely require a water softener to protect the boiler and steam components over time. The roll-in configuration also needs adequate clear space in front of the oven to manoeuvre loaded trolleys safely, which should be accounted for in the kitchen layout. Ventilation requirements should be reviewed with a qualified installer.

This oven is suited to operations cooking at significant volume across multiple service periods — central production kitchens, large hotel operations, contract catering facilities, and institutional kitchens are the natural fit. It is not the right choice for sites where a 6- or 10-grid unit would meet demand more efficiently and at lower running cost. For operations considering multi-unit configurations or sites with exceptional throughput requirements, it is worth a conversation about whether a different layout or capacity would serve the site better.
