Page 16: Temperature Uniformity
Temperature Uniformity Where accurate temperature control of the load is important, use the central part of the chamber and place or distribute the load to allow free air circulation. Do not place loads on the chamber floor: use the bottom shelf. Explosive Vapours Unless your product includes the stoving and curing option, this model is not suitable for drying or heat treatment applications where... -
Page 17: Stoving And Curing (If Fitted)
Start the extraction process using the switch on the control panel; this is only functional when the instrument switch is on. When the unit is turned on, there may be a drop in internal temperature until the product recovers to the setpoint value. The amount of air exhaust can be controlled by adjusting the vent control knob on the control panel. - Page 18 When the exhaust fan is turned on, there may be a drop in internal temperature before the product recovers to the setpoint value. The airflow should be adjusted to the minimum required by the process to reduce the amount of energy wasted in heating air.
