1500°C Tube Furnace

Installation

CAUTION : Be sure ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F). Ambient
above this level may result in damage to the controller. The recommended ambient
temperature is 17°C to 27°C (62.6°F to 80.6°F).
CAUTION : Allow at least 12"(30.48 cm) of space between the furnace, at least
12"(30.48 cm) 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.
WARNING : To avoid electrical shock, this furnace must be installed by a competent
electrician who ensures compatibility among furnace specification, power source and
ground code requirements.

Lifting and Carrying

CAUTION :
Heavy loads. Lift with care!
1. To avoid injury through physical strain, such as strain trauma and slipped discs, do
not attempt to lift the furnace alone.
2. To avoid injury through dropped loads, wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
per local protocols, such as safety shoes, when lifting the furnace.
3. To avoid crushing your fingers or hands or damaging the furnace, do not use any
other lift points than the bottom sides of the furnace.

Transport

1. For transport, do not lift the device using installed components (e.g. tube adapter or
process tube) as lifting points.
2. Lift at the bottom sides of the furnace with NIOSH rated straps and/or using
appropriate number of personnel per local safety policies and regulations.

Location

Install the furnace in a level area free from vibration. To permit proper air flow, leave at
least 12"(30.48 cm) of space on all sides of the unit and 12"(30.48 cm) above the unit.

Wiring

For detailed wiring information, refer to:
Figure 13 "Wiring Diagram STF55433 series"
Figure 14 "Wiring Diagram STF55433P Series" at the end of this manual.
NOTE The furnace and control are wired and bolted together at the factory. The
control must be wired to a power source before operation (refer to Section "240 VAC
Operation").
