Routine Maintenance

1)The installation of the furnace must be stable.

2)The furnace body should be reliably grounded to ensure safety.

3)Before troubleshooting, power must be disconnected before proceeding.

4)Regularly inspect the interior of the furnace. If any abnormalities are found, contact Chitherm Company promptly and take appropriate measures.

5)It is recommended to perform an empty burn every week to remove adherent substances and crystals from the furnace interior.

6)After each sintering cycle, clean the interior and exterior of the equipment thoroughly, especially areas prone to adhesive buildup such as the furnace door.

During the use of the furnace, it is strictly prohibited to move the position arbitrarily. If relocation is necessary due to work reasons, the following preparations must be completed before moving:

1)Disconnect the main power supply line.

2)Remove the thermocouples;

3)Protect the control panel with soft packaging.

If for some reason (other than damage) the equipment cannot be put into operation temporarily, the following preparations must be made before storing the equipment:

1)Wipe the surface of the equipment clean.

2)Ensure that the furnace door is securely locked.

3)Cover the entire equipment with plastic bags and wrap it up.

4)Store the equipment in a cool and dry place.

Pre-Power-Up Preparations

1)Check if the furnace interior is flat and free of abnormalities.

2)Inspect all electrical wiring for firm connections and ensure there are no loose wires.

3)Check that all push-button switches are reset.

4)Verify that the external gas inlet valve is closed.

5)Inspect all heating elements for damage.

6)Check that the touch screen control system is connected properly.

7)Ensure that the gas meets the equipment requirements.

The entire furnace structure is divided into the furnace chamber, hot air system, and control system. The furnace chamber is sealed and welded from high-quality SUS304 stainless steel plates, with ceramic fiber insulation material filled between the furnace chamber and the furnace frame. The furnace chamber adopts a double-layer stainless steel structure. The outer layer of stainless steel is argon arc welded to form a sealed space with the furnace door; the inner layer of stainless steel forms the air duct, facilitating horizontal air circulation. Ceramic fiber blankets are filled between the outer plate of the furnace chamber and the furnace frame to provide insulation and heat resistance.

The hot air system consists of a circulating fan, air ducts, and heaters; the circulating fan is installed at the top of the furnace chamber, with circulating air exiting from the right side of the top and being drawn in from the left side through the working chamber; stainless steel heaters are arranged at the outlets of the top deflector plates.

The furnace opening uses a single-opening furnace door combined with sealing strips for sealing. The furnace door protrudes inward, primarily to prevent heat reduce heat convection; silicone rubber sealing strips are installed around the furnace door to ensure the overall airtightness of the furnace chamber.
