Product Overview
The Merrychef e3 HP is the high convection model in the Merrychef e series, with 3.0 kW of convection power — the highest convection-to-microwave ratio in the Merrychef range. While most speed ovens prioritise microwave power for fast reheating, the e3 HP is optimised for products that benefit from more convection heat — baked goods, pastries, croissants and items where even browning and a dry, crisp texture are important. Two phase 20 amp, no hood required.
Best for: Bakeries, patisseries, cafes with a strong baked goods offering and venues where pastry quality and even browning matters more than raw speed.
How the Merrychef e3 HP cooks
The e3 HP uses the same three-technology cooking system — top impingement airflow, microwave energy and convection heat — but with a 3.0 kW convection element that delivers significantly more convection energy than other models. This makes the e3 HP particularly effective for pastries, croissants, baked goods and items that need a proper oven finish rather than just rapid reheating. Menu programmes are loaded via USB with Ethernet connectivity for cloud-based management. The built-in catalytic converter means no exhaust hood is required.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the e3 HP have less microwave power than other HP models? The e3 HP is designed for products that benefit from convection heat — baked goods, pastries and items needing a dry, crisp finish. The 3.0 kW convection output is the highest in the range. For menus focused on rapid reheating of proteins and sandwiches, the e4 HP or ConneX HP models with higher microwave power are better suited.
Does the e3 HP need a hood? No. Built-in catalytic converter — no extraction required.
What is the cavity size of the e3 HP? 300mm x 320mm — slightly different to the standard 311mm x 311mm ConneX 12 cavity.
