STEAM CONDENSER WITH HEAT EXCHANGER AND A COOKING OVEN WITH SUCH STEAM CONDENSER

A steam condenser for a cooking oven having a housing, side walls and at least partly open front side and back side to facilitate flow of cooling air through the steam condenser, and a heat exchanger located in said housing that includes connected finned tubes through which water vapor with other gases from the cooking oven are guided. The steam condenser includes a condensate drainage system that the finned tubes are arranged between the side walls of the housing and in a descending manner, such that each tube has one end attached to the side wall of the housing higher than the other end, and each two adjacent ends of adjacent tubes are located one higher than the other. The adjacent ends of the adjacent finned tubes are connected by 180° connectors, such that the finned tubes are interconnected in a zigzag manner. The highest or the lowest of the finned tubes is connected to a final descending tube which has orifices in an upper part and located on the side of the final descending tube that is facing away from the flow of the cooling air.
