INSTALLATION ARDWIRE EQUIREMENT The oven requires permanent connect wiring (commonly known as hardwiring). Wiring to the power source must be performed by a qualified electrical technician. All other Installation steps may be performed by the end user. NSTALLATION ROCEDURE HECKLIST Perform the procedures and steps listed below to install the oven in a new workspace location and prepare it for use.
Page 14
INSTALLATION EQUIRED MBIENT ONDITIONS This oven is intended for use indoors, at room temperatures between 15°C and 40°C (59°F and 104°F), at no greater than 80% Relative Humidity (at 25°C / 77°F). Operating the unit outside of these conditions may adversely affect its temperature range and stability.
Page 15
INSTALLATION OWER OURCE EQUIREMENTS When selecting a location for the oven, check that each of the following requirements is satisfied: Power Source: The power source must match the voltage and ampere requirements listed on the oven data plate. This oven is intended for 220 - 240 volt, 50/60 Hz applications at 12 Amps. The power source must be single (1) phase and protective earth grounded.
INSTALLATION OWER IRING The oven comes provided with an integral 6 inch (15 cm) wire braid of two 14-gauge high- temperature (300°C) hot wires and a 14-gauge earth ground. The wires for power source connection should be Green/Yellow – Earth; Black – Hot; Red – Hot. The oven must be earth grounded using the protective conductor terminal (green with yellow stripe wire.
Page 17
INSTALLATION NSTALL THE Place the unit in a workspace location that meets the criteria discussed in the previous entries of the Installation section. Verify that the oven stands level and does not rock. Adjust the leveling feet as needed. • Power: The oven may now be hardwired to its power source •...
GRAPHIC SYMBOLS The oven is provided with multiple graphic symbols on its external and internal surfaces. The symbols identify hazards and the functions of the adjustable components, as well as important notes found in the user manual. Symbol Definition Consult the user manual.

CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW Power Switch The self-illuminating main power switch controls all power to the oven and its systems. The switch must be in the ( I ) on position for the unit to function. Temperature Controller - Display on Homepage Top Line (Red): Present chamber air temperature Middle Line (Green): The constant...
OPERATION Safe operation of the oven is dependent on the actions and behavior of the oven operators. Operating personnel must read and understand the Operating Precautions in this section prior to operating the oven. The operators must follow these instructions to prevent injuries and to safeguard their health, environment, and the materials being treated in the oven, as well as to prevent damage to the oven.

OPERATION HEORY OF PERATIONS Heating When powered, the SMO High Performance oven heats the oven chamber atmosphere to the current constant temperature set point. The constant temperature set point, shown on the controller homepage, can be adjusted by the end-user using the temperature arrow controls on the oven control panel. The oven can also be programed with multi-step heating profile recipes.
Page 25
OPERATION Vents – Intake and Exhaust The oven is provided with an intake vent and exhaust vent that may be opened or closed using dampener slides located on the vents. The dampeners are intended to be opened after the heat treatment or bake out phases of an application are complete.
OPERATION UT THE VEN INTO PERATION Carry out the following steps and procedures to put the oven into operation after installing it in a new workspace environment. Place the oven Power Switch in the on ( I ) position. The controller display will illuminate, show the current firmware revision number, and then default to the homepage.

OPERATION ET THE EMPERATURE IMIT Note: Test the high limit system once per year for functionality. The high temperature limit is set by the end-user, typically at 5°C above the highest temperature the oven will run at during your recipe profile or constant-temperature application. Advance to the Limit High Set Point, starting from the Homepage Push Advance...
Page 28
OPERATION ETTING THE ONSTANT EMPERATURE OINT Adjust the constant temperature set point on the home page Adjust Do not exceed the high limit temperature set point. • Note: Holding down an arrow button will cause the temperature to advance in increments of ten (10).
Page 29
OPERATION EMPERATURE IMIT CTIVE LERT If the oven chamber temperature exceeds the present high temperature limit setting, the limit system will depower the heating element. This is accompanied by a loud “click.” The controller display will flash two alternating alert screen, fail and the homepage with the set Alternating HTL Alert Screens point set to off.
OPERATION OSITIVE XHAUST ENTING Exhaust ducting can be connected to the oven exhaust port in order to channel or positively vent exhaust away from the oven workspace. The duct should not extend straight up from the oven but should include a steep bend sufficient to stop condensation in the ducting from sliding down into the oven.

USER MAINTENANCE ALIBRATING THE EMPERATURE ISPLAY Performing an accurate calibration of the temperature display requires a temperature Note: reference device. Please see the Reference Sensor Devices entry on page 7 for the minimum device requirements. Temperature calibrations match the temperature display to the actual air temperature inside the oven chamber.
Page 35
USER MAINTENANCE 5 ) Heat up and stabilization period: The oven temperature must be stable at temperature in order to perform an accurate calibration. The temperature is considered stabilized when the oven chamber has operated at your calibration temperature for at least 30 minutes with no fluctuations greater than ±0.2°C. 30 Minute Minimum Stability Period 150°C...

USER MAINTENANCE Calibration continued Jump to the Operations menu. a. Press and hold both the Up and Down Arrow buttons simultaneously for approximately 5 seconds. b. Release the buttons when “A1” appears on the top display line and “oPEr” appears in the mid display line. Operations Menu Advance through the Operations menu options to the Temperature Calibration offset parameter.
Page 37
USER MAINTENANCE Calibration continued Allow the oven to stabilize after achieving the temperature set point using the offset display value. Note: The unit is stabilized when no fluctuations of ±0.2°C or greater are detected. Reference Device Once the chamber has stabilized, compare the reference temperature device and oven temperature display readings.
