GC SERIES

Gravity convection ovens designed for general laboratory use when temperature control and uniformity are less critical. Ideal when dependable performance is demanded at a sensible price Temperatures to 2700C (5180F). Choice of capacities - 2.9, 3.8 and 4.8 cubic feet. Natural convection enhanced by top and floor vents.

FC SERIES

Forced convection ovens feature a blower system for improved performance. An ideal choice when temperature uniformity and control are important considerations. The blower gently circulates heated air throughout the chamber improving temperature uniformity and control. This forced convection also reduces heat -up and recovery time. Temperatures to 2700C (5180F). Digital display provides temperature readings capacities of 2.5, 3.5 and 4.4 cubic feet are available.

STANDARD EQUIPMENT

Standard Electrical Characteristics

230 volts 50 Hz 3- wire cord .

Standard Temperature Control System

Primary hydraulic control thermostat sets desired oven temperature. Second independent safety thermostat for automatic over-temperature protection should the primary thermostat fail. Pilot lights indicate which thermostat is controlling the temperature. Digital temperature display provided on FC Series only.

GS SERIES

Gravity Convection

Heat is transferred directly form bottom up through the oven chamber and exits by gravity convection through vents in top.

FC SERIES

Forced Convection

Includes forced circulation for improved temperature uniformity, large moist loads, or to speed up drying times. Heated air is gently forced up both sides of the oven chamber where it exits through openings in the sidewall plenums. It circulates through the oven, is drawn down through the center of the chamber reheated and recirculated. Exhaust is through two vents in the top of the oven.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE

Additional Shelves, 25 lbs. distributed load per shelf, 35 lbs. maximum oven load, specify oven model when ordering.
