Index to numbered items in Figure 2.3.2
1. Tube furnace body
2. Work tube (diameter customer option)
3. Work tube adaptor (size dependent on work tube diameter)
4. Work tube adaptor fixing bracket
5. Work tube end stop (size dependent on work tube diameter)
6. Fixing screws M6 x 15
7. Washer M6
8. Tube furnace end guard
l
Remove the work tube end guard (8) then remove the work tube adaptor fixing
bracket (4) that holds in place the work tube end stop (5) and the end adaptor (3)
from one side only. Note that if a different work tube with a different outer diameter
is being fitted it will be necessary to fit new correctly sized work tube adaptors (3) in
which case both end guards and work tube adaptor fixing brackets (4) will need
removing.
l
Slide the work tube into the furnace through the work tube adaptor (3) until it
reaches the opposite work tube end stop (5). Note that the work might be a tight fit
when it is new and may need to be twisted backwards and forwards slightly as it
slides in. For long work tubes it may be necessary to use a long wooden pole to sup-
port and line up the work tube as it pushed through. It may also take 2 people to per-
form this operation.
l
Reassemble the work tube end stop (5), work tube adaptor bracket (4) and tube end
guard (8).
