Port and Power Specifications 

 

 

Cabinet Vacuum Port – KF-25 

o

 

Opened and closed using the Vac control on the oven front. 

 

Cabinet Power Outlet – NEMA 6-20R 

o

 

Intended to power a vacuum pump. 

o

 

Turned on and off using the Vacuum power switch on the front control panel. 

 

Cabinet Intake Vent Port (backfill inlet) – 1/2 Inch (12.7 mm) OD 

o

 

A clean or inert gas supply source may be connected to this port.

 

o

 

The maximum allowed gas pressure is 15 psi.

Opened and closed using the Vent handle on the oven front.

 

 

Vacuum Port, Back of Oven – KF-25 Fitting 

o

 

Intended for introducing temperature sensor probes into the oven chamber. Probes 
must be inserted through a vacuum-rated feedthrough and secured in the oven 
prior to placing the chamber under vacuum. 

o

 

A vacuum pump can be connected to the KF-25 port for increased efficiency in 
vacuuming down the chamber. When using this port, 

the Vac valve control on the 

front panel must be set to closed.
