7.1  Safety Warning – Disconnection from Supply 

 

Always ensure that the furnace is disconnected from the supply before repair work 
is carried out. 

7.2 

Safety Warning - Refractory Fibrous Insulation 

 This furnace contains refractory fibres in its thermal insulation. These materials may 

be in the form of fibre blanket or felt, vacuum formed board or shapes, mineral wool 
slab or loose fill fibre.  

 

Normal use of the furnace does not result in any significant level of airborne dust from these 
materials, but much higher levels may be encountered during maintenance or repair. 

 

Whilst there is no evidence of any long term health hazards, we strongly recommend that safety 
precautions are taken whenever the materials are handled. 

Exposure to dust from fibre that has been used at high temperatures may cause 
respiratory disease. 

When handling fibre always use an approved mask, eye protection, gloves and long 
sleeved clothing. 

Avoid breaking up waste material. Dispose of waste fibre in sealed containers. 

After handling rinse exposed skin with water before washing gently with soap (not 
detergent). Wash work clothing separately. 

 

Before commencing any major repairs we recommend reference to the European Ceramic Fibre 
Industry Association Bulletin No. 11 and the UK Health and Safety Executive Guidance Note 
EH46. 

 

We can provide further information on request. Alternatively our service division can quote for 
any repairs to be carried out at your premises or ours. 

7.3 

Temperature Controller Replacement 

 

The 201 controller is fitted inside the furnace base, which can be separated from the top by 
removal of six screws. 

 

Before handling the controller: 

wear an anti-static wrist strap

 or otherwise avoid any possibility 

of damage to the unit by static electricity.  

 

See the instructions supplied with the replacement controller. 

7.4  Solid-state Relay Replacement 

 

Disconnect the furnace from the supply and remove the furnace back panel. 

 

Make a note of the wire connections to the solid state relay, and disconnect them. 

 

Remove the solid state relay from the base panel. 

 

Replace and reconnect the solid state relay ensuring that the heat-conducting thermal pad is 
sandwiched between the relay and the base panel or aluminium plate. Alternatively a thin layer of 
white, heat-conducting silicon paste may be applied between the new relay and the base panel or 
aluminium plate. 

 

Replace the removed panel.
