5.1 General Notes
•
The insulation consists of high-quality
refractory material which is susceptible to
shock. Take care not to knock against the
refractory material when charging the furnace
to avoid damage.
•
In order to achieve an even temperature
distribution the furnace should be charged in
such a way that products have a certain
distance to each other and also to the side
walls. Koehler offers shelves, etc. so that the
furnace chamber can be used in the most
efficient way possible.
•
If the furnace is charged with a high quantity
of products the heating time may be prolonged
considerably.
•
The furnace heating is stopped when the door
is opened and is switched on automatically
when the door is closed.
•
Do not open the furnace when it is hot. If the
furnace must be opened at high temperatures
do this as quickly as possible. Wear personal
protective equipment and clothing and provide
sufficient room ventilation.
•
Make sure that the door is properly closed
during heating.
•
Discolorations may occur on the stainless
steel housing (especially when the hot furnace
is opened); these, however, do not affect the
functionality of the oven.
5.2 Maintenance and fault clearance
Regularly clean the ventilation holes/pipes so that
the ventilation cross-section remains unobstructed
and the suction functions well.
In the case of commercial use:
Please observe the safety regulations
applicable to your country.
When ordering replacement part(s), please
provide the model number, serial number, and
product shipment date of your equipment so that
we can ensure you will receive the proper
replacement part(s).
