EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS
Control and Indicator Description
1. Power Switch - Applies power to the oven
heater controls.
2. Temp. Control - Regulates the oven
temperature.
3. Heating Indicator - Indicateswhen the oven
is being heated.
4. Thermometer Well - Located on Top rear of
Oven. Provides a means of monitoring the
chambertemperaturethrough aglasscolumn
thermometer.
5. Vacuum Gauge - Indicateschamber vacuum
(in inches of mercury).
6. Hose Connections - Used for connecting
minimum 1/4" vacuum tubing between oven
and vacuum pumping systems, or other
apparatus.
7. Valves - Used for evacuating chamber,
controlling vacuum, or for bleeding air and
other gasses into chamber.
8. Penetration Port - One (1) inch NPT port
projecting out back of oven for attachment to
a high capacity vacuum system for quick
evacuation of the chamber.

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Apply power to the unit by pressing the power
switch to "On". Turn the Temp. Control knob fully
clockwise. The "Heating" indicator will glow when
theunit is heating. Whenthe temperature reaches
the desired operating level (as indicated on the
thermometer) turn the Temp. Control knob
counterclockwise until the "Heating" indicator just
turnsoff. Allow the temperaturetocycle on and off
severaltimes (3 to 4 hours) to makesure the oven
has stabilized. Adjust the Temp. Control knob up
or down as necessary.
Oven thermostats are set for operation at
temperatures over 100°C.
For control at lower temperatures, readjustment
of the thermostat may be necessary.
Two allen wrenches are required:
• 1/16" for the thermostat shaft
• 5/64" for the thermostat knob
1. Bring oven to room ambient.
2. Energize oven.
3. Set thermostat fully counter-clockwise (heat
lamp is on).
4. Remove thermostat knob. Note small allen
screw within shaft.
5. Turn shaft allen screw clockwise until lamp
goes out.
6. Attemptto control at the desiredtemperature.
7. It may be necessary to repeat this procedure.
NOTE
WHEN THE OVEN IS NEW AND IS FIRST HEATED,
THE INSULATION WILL BECOME SCORCHED AND
SOMESMOKEANDBURNING ODOR WILL OCCUR.
IT IS NORMAL FOR THIS CONDITION TO LAST 2
TO 3 HOURS AT HIGH HEAT.
VACUUM OPERATION
The following information serves as a guide to
operation of the vacuum system.
The total variable leak rate of the oven is 3 inches
of mercury per cubic foot per 24 hours at 29 to 26
inches of mercury.
Vacuum Sealing Agents
High vacuum silicone grease is often necessary
to provide a proper seal at tubing connections,
valve connections, door seals, etc. This is
especially important at high vacuums. However,
there are restrictions to using silicone grease,
depending upon the type of materials placed in
the oven. Refer to the maintenance section of this
manual for restrictions.
Out Gassing
Theoperationoftheovenathightemperaturewhile
evacuatingthechamberwillhelp driveoffabsorbed
gasses on the walls and other surfaces and
facilitate attainment of high vacuums.
Evacuating Chamber
Connect vacuum tubing to either hose connection
ontopof vacuumoven. Turnon thevacuum pump,
then open the valve on the oven. The vacuum
gaugewillindicate whenthe desiredpressurelevel
is obtained. Once obtained, close the valve, and
turn off the vacuum pump. Air may be bled into
thechamber through theunused valve to raisethe
pressure level.
NOTE
TO MAINTAIN AS LEAK PROOF A SYSTEM AS
POSSIBLE USE ONLY VACUUM PUMP TUBING.
MAKE SURE ALL CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT. USE
A VACUUM PUMP SIZED TO ADEQUATELY
EVACUATE THE OVEN VOLUME.
CAUTION
VACUUM PUMPS SHOULD NEVER BE TURNED
OFF WHILE CONNECTED TO A SYSTEM UNDER
VACUUM. OIL BACK UP INTO THE LINES AND
SYSTEM WILL OCCUR NECESSITATING
EXTENSIVE CLEAN UP.
When turning vacuum pump off, immediately
undo the connection at the oven valve or the
pump intake.
1. Close the vacuum valve
2. Turn the pump off.
3. Immediately break the connection at the
pump or oven.
4. Leave connection open for one minute,
then reattach.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
1. Ifthe oven fails to maintainsettemperature, it
may indicate a problem with the Temp.
Control,or possibly a heatingelement failure.
Contact your local service representative.
2. Sometimes due to shipping, handling and
normal operational wear, oven doors will get
out of alignment. Realignment is
accomplished quickly and easily as follows:
a.Loosen the set screws holding the hinge
barinplace.(Note thatthehingebar moves
easily once the set screws are loosened.)
b.Centerthedoorinthedoorframe andapply
pressure toward the top of the oven.
Retighten the set screws.
Ifproperly aligned,the doorframeshould seat
freelyagainst the door gasketwithout binding
whentheoven isplacedin theproperposition.
In case the latch bar on the right side of the
oven is out of alignment, it can be adjusted in
the same manner.
3. Gaskets should be checked periodically for
hardening, shrinking, deterioration or other
signs of wear. It is advisable to keep several
gaskets available for use as replacement.
4. The oven is equipped with silicone door
gaskets, unless specified otherwise. Do not
use silicone door gaskets or vacuum grease
when evaporating solvents in the oven or
when using high analine point oils. BUNA-N
gaskets should be used in applications when
evaporation solvents or when using high
analine point oils.
5. The interior finish or silicone gaskets may be
damaged by the following:
Diesel oil
JP-4 oil
MIL-0-5606
Hydraulic Fluids
Butyl Acetate
Carbon Tetrachloride
Ethylene Chloride
Gasoline
Kerosene
Zylene
Methyl Chloride
Stoddard Solvent
Toluene
Aromatic Chlorinated solvent

type of door gasket material is best suited for
your needs.

RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SERVICE BE
PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL.

THIS CAN OCCUR IF AN OBJECT IS ALLOWED TO
REST DIRECTLY ON THE SURFACE, TRAPPING
MOISTURE THAT BECOMES OXYGEN STARVED
BUT IS SURROUNDED BY WATER CONTAINING
OXYGEN. THE RESULTING ELECTROLYTIC
ACTION WILL PIT OR CORRODE THE STAINLESS
STEEL.
Background
Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium
andnickelwhichincreasethemetal'sresistanceto
rust and corrosion. However, if not properly cared
foritcanrustandcorrode.Exposuretoairprovides
thepassivationforcleanstainlesssteel.Thisexpo-

that forms rapidly on the alloy surface and gives
stainlesssteelitscharacteristic"stainless"quality.
Exposureofthesurfacetowaterorotheroxidizing
environments also produces this passivating film.
However, if free oxygen is not available due to
scale or contamination buildup the metal surface
may become vulnerable to attack.
Maintaining a neutral pH and frequent cleaning
with detergent and water will give you years of
trouble free service for your oven. The following
are some guidelines to consider.

one of the following methods.
WARNING
THE FOLLOWING CHEMICAL METHODS HAVE
PROVEN SUCCESSFUL BUT EXTREME CARE
MUST BE TAKEN WHEN HANDLING THESE
MATERIALS. ALWAYS WORK IN AN AREA WITH
ADEQUATE VENTILATION. USE THE
PRECAUTIONS OUTLINED IN THE MATERIAL

The use and disposal of these chemicals may be
regulated by your local municipality. Consult the
regulations before disposing of these materials.
1. Bathroom tub and tile cleaners. Available at
supermarkets.
2. Any of a variety of "scale removers" available
at your local supermarket or
hardware store. Generally sold for cleaning
coffee makers, humidifiers and vaporizers.
3. Citric acid based cleaners. Contact your lab
supply dealer.
4. A 15 to 35% phosphoric acid solution.
Available form chemical supply dealers for
scaleand rustremoval. Allow solutionto soak
the surface affected until rust and scale is
loosened. Immediately rinse with copious
amounts of clean water.
5. Oxalic Acid 2% to 5% in warm water. Swab
solution on surface allowing it to remain until
rust is loosened. Immediately flush with
copious amounts of clean water.
6. A mixture of 20% nitric acid and 1.5%
hydroflouricacid (or hydrochloric acid). Swab
solution on surface allowing it to remain until
rust is loosened. Immediately flush with
copious amounts of clean water.
The above are ranked in order of mild to strong
cleaning agents. Items 5 and 6 should only be
used if severe rust and scale stains have
developed and cannot be removed by any other
method. In any case the chemical should be
allowedto do thecleaning with minimalscrubbing.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
