Safety
Caution
Materials and substances that are harmful to health!
Risk of contamination.
The insulation in the combustion chamber consists of ceramic mineral
bres (INDEX no. 650-017-00-08). These are classied as carcinogenic
(Category 1B (Annex VI, EC 1272/2008). Fibre dust may be released
during work on the combustion chamber (e.g. replacing the door insulation).
Exposure to dust may cause cancer if it is inhaled, as well as cause
irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory organs.
hWear personal protective equipment when carrying out all work on
the combustion chamber (protective goggles, protective gloves, Class
FFP2 respiratory protection, etc.).
hUse only vacuums with ne particle lters (HEPA dust class H).
Insulating material, which can be seen as white dust, may be rubbed o󰀨
in the oven door area. You should do the following with these deposits:
hWipe them o󰀨 with a damp cloth or
hExtract them using a vacuum with a ne particle lter (HEPA dust
class H)
The deposits must not be blown o󰀨 with compressed air.
First aid measures
hIf inhaled: If you notice any irritation, go into a dust-free area, drink
some water and clean your nose. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
hIf contact is made with the skin: If contact is made with the skin, wash
the a󰀨ected area immediately with plenty of soap and water.
hIf contact is made with the eyes: Immediately rinse your eyes carefully
and thoroughly using eye wash or water. Do not rub them!
Notice
Always dispose of insulating material in an enclosed container
(see chapter entitled “Disposal”).

Safety
Version1.0de-09/2019 MV-R 100/120 Page 9
Warning
Risk of burns due to objects falling out.
There is an acute risk of burns if any objects fall out. A reproof table and
ooring support must be installed.
1. The oven may only be operated when stationary for safety
reasons. Only then is the operator able to quickly avoid any
parts that fall out.
2. The company that operates the premises is responsible for
conducting an appropriate safety brieng for operators.
3. If a fracture occurs in the sintering process due to failure to
adhere to the recommended drying procedure, there is a risk of
hot objects immediately falling out when the oven door opens.
4. The oven may be loaded and unloaded only using crucible fork
aids. A trained operator must be present during the loading and
unloading phase for safety reasons.

Technical description
Technical description
Function
The MV-R 100/120 is used to re sinterable ceramics.
The product to be sintered is placed in the sintering dish and set on the
support disc. After the heating parameters are entered and the Start symbol
is pressed, the electrically-powered oven door closes and the heat-up
process starts.
Once the heating program has ended and the MV-R 100/120 has cooled
down, the oven door opens and the nished product can be removed.
Heating chamber
The product is sintered in the heating chamber. This consists of two di󰀨erent
ceramic insulation layers and is operated using MoSi2 heating elements. The
outer insulating layer is designed for temperatures up to 1200 °C; the inner
layer for temperatures up to 1700 °C.
Oven door
The oven door consists of a ceramic door panel.
A slip clutch used in the drive mechanism prevents excessive contact
pressure between the oven door and heating chamber.
Oven housing
The oven housing consists of steel plating coated with plastic on both the
inside and outside.
Program control system
The program control system has a timer function that can be used to specify
a day and time for the program to nish.
Operating parameters and heating programs are stored in a non-volatile
memory and are retained even if the power supply fails.
The set target temperature is maintained within an accuracy of ± 1 °C.
A temperature sensor integrated into the heating chamber measures the
temperature of the chamber close to the product.
A thermocouple fail-safe prevents the MV-R 100/120 from overheating if the
temperature sensor becomes defective.
