    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L WARNING Poor fluidisation causes hot spots, heater failure, and damage to other parts. Follow instruction book carefully. For correct fluidisation, pay attention to; INSTALLATION Ensure bath is level and air supply is adequate.

  • Page 11: General Description

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L GENERAL DESCRIPTION The fluidised bath employs the principle of fluidisation of a mass of finely divided inert particles by means of an upward flow of gas. A state of fluidisation is achieved when the individual particles become microscopically separated from each other by the moving gas.
  • Page 12 I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L During operation the correct fluidising air flow must be determined by visually inspecting the surface of the fluidised bath. When the fluidised bath is heated the air within the bath expands;...

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L INSTALLATION Mount the fluidised bath in the position where it is to be used. It is important to ensure that the bath is level, otherwise it will fluidise incorrectly.
  • Page 15 I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L The figures quoted are approximate and may need to be varied depending upon the work load, e g the bath may have to be over fluidised to avoid the creation of dead spots above an immersed object.

  • Page 16: Fume Ignition

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L Fume Ignition Spontaneous ignition may occur above the surface of the fluidised bath or within the exhaust ductwork if the concentration exceeds the lower explosive limit. The fume concentration is dependent upon the rate of fume production in the fluidised bath and the level of dilution achieved by entraining air from above the bath or through the dilution tee.

  • Page 17: Fume Cleaning

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L Fume Cleaning When used for processing items which may emit toxic or inflammable fumes, it is essential that an adequate fume extraction system be installed. A typical schematic diagram of such a system is shown in the appendix;...

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L OPERATION To set the temperature controller to the required operating temperature, switch on the electrical supply which will illuminate the power and cut-out indicators. Then set the required temperature by using the up and down arrows.

    I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L MAINTENANCE 1) The aluminium oxide fluidising medium, not being degradable,will only require replacement when losses occur due to attrition and spillage, or contamination with inert pigments, fillers or acidic by products from the cleaning process.
  • Page 22 I F B - 1 1 1 O P E R A T O R ’ S M A N U A L the bed medium clean and free flowing, and free of gums, acids, agglomerates, partly decomposed plastic, char and larger particles. These cleaning processes have the additional benefit of ensuring good fluidisation and this, in turn reduces burn off time, reduces uneven heating of parts and thus distortion, increases heater life by eliminating localised hot-spots, and makes cleaning easier on a regular basis.
