11.” Exceeding these limits will result in severely reduced element life. Intended Use The Type F6000 furnaces are general purpose laboratory and heat treating furnaces. For optimum element life, we recommend observing these temperature ranges: from 100°C (212°F) to 1093°C (2000°F) continuous use or from 1093°C (2000°F) to 1200°C (2192°F) for intermittent use. -

Page 19: Site Selection
Installation Site Selection Be sure ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F). Ambient above this level may result in damage to the controller. Allow at least six inches of space between the furnace, at least 40 inches above the furnace and any combustible surface. This permits the heat from the furnace case to escape so as not to create a possible fire hazard. -
Page 20: Electrical Conditions In The Eu
Installation Electrical Conditions in the EU Electrical Conditions in the EU Electrical Conditions for operating the furnaces in the EU: The furnaces are intended for use at a network supply with a maximum system impedance of Zmax = 0.0325 Ohmat the point of connection, according to EN 61000-3-11 clause 6.2.2. The user has to ensure that the device is operated on a network supply that meets these requirements. - Page 21 Installation Electrical Conditions in the EU...
