AFETY NFORMATION Warnings WARNING To avoid electrical shock, this furnace must: 1. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current handling capacity. 2. Disconnect from the power supply prior to maintenance and servicing. 3. Have the door switch operating properly. To avoid burns, this furnace must: 1.
Introduction Introduction Intended Use The Type F62700 furnace is a general laboratory and heat treating furnace. For optimum element life, it is sug- gested that this furnace be used for applications requir- ing temperatures from 400°F (204°C) to 1600°F (871°C) for continuous use, or temperatures from 1600°F (871°C)
NTRODUCTION 4 Ramp & 4 Dwell Programmable Controller This controller consists of a microprocessor based three- mode (Proportional, Integral, Derivative), programmable temperature controller with “Fuzzy” logic capability, pro- grammable over-temperature protection and appropriate output switching devices to control the furnace. The digital readout continuously displays chamber (upper display) and setpoint (lower display) temperatures unless the “SEL”...

Unpackaging Unpackaging Visually check for any physical damage to the shipping con- tainer. Inspect the equipment surfaces that are adjacent to any damaged area. Open the furnace door and remove packing material from inside the furnace chamber. Vacuum the chamber prior to use to remove the insulation dust due to shipping.
Prior to connecting Be sure ambient temperature does not exceed your Type F62700 furnace to your electrical supply, be 104°F (40°C). Ambients above this level may re- sure the front power switch is in the “OFF” position.
General Operation of Furnace General Operation of Furnace WARNING To avoid electrical shock, this furnace must: 1. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current handling capacity. 2. Disconnect from the power supply prior to maintenance and servicing. 3.

Preventative Maintenance WARNING This warning is presented for compliance with California Proposition 65 and other regulatory agencies and only applies to the insulation in this product. This product contains refractory ceramic, refractory ceramic fiber or fiberglass insulation, which can produce respirable dust or fibers during disassembly. Dust or fibers can cause irritation and can aggravate pre-existing respiratory diseases.
REVENTATIVE AINTENANCE Housekeeping is vital to your electric furnace - KEEP IT CLEAN. Run your furnace up to 1600°F empty occasionally to burn off the contamination that may exist on the insula- tion and elements. Maintain 1600°F for at least 4 hrs. to in- sure complete ashing of foreign materials.
