The Compact 100 furnace features an unique digital system to adust per{ect backing
temperature.
The Compact I0O furnaee controi station maintains baking temperature constant'
within deviation limits oi +!- Z"C. However, changes in muffle behavior due to ageing
may cause a slight variation in the quality of the result'
Digital calibralion compensatstor this variation'
this is easy to do:
E'hen programing -oaking tempenature' press sbnd-by key @ @rF\
The ealibration lamp lights up and the catibration number is displayed in \$|
This calibration is factory preset at 5, as this setting assures satisfactory operation for a
new muffle.
If results indieate an overly Ngh baking temperaiure:
--increase setting-
If resuits indieate insuficient bakin$ tempefaf,ure:
- decrease setting.
S Not*,
The compensation settirigs run from I to t0. As the mufrle ages, it is usually necessary
r-o dec.rease the setting gradually.
When compensation setting I is reached, Ttre muffte should be changed rapidly'
O*ee tire n** *rrffi" is installed, compensation should be reset at 5.

FIEING PARAMETEBS
r-PRE-DRYINGTEMPERATUR$-0TCIlooo.C(32To1832"F}
At the end of a cyele' lemperature drops te 300"C (S70'F")'
After placing the porcelain workpiecle on the platform, the operator starts the next
cycle. Temperarure then rises from 3OS "C (5?0"F) to progFained "pre-drying
temperature". The piatform lifts once npre-drying temperaturel is reached' While the
platforrn is lifting, ter$perature is maintained' constant'
S r*ot",
lf muft1e temperature is higher than programed "pre-drying temperature" when the
operator requests cycle start, the platfcrm will not llft until temperature has cooled
to programed "pre-drying temperature't + 5"C (41'F)'
2 - PBE-DRYINC fiHE O.TO ?O mn
The firing platform lifts to the intermediate position and stays there throughout the
"pre-drying tirne", The programable unit of time is the minute'
!f no "pre-clrying time" is necessary, set timer on 0'
3 - I|EAT RISE RATE ?S TO lSS"C/mn (68 fO 3OO"F/mn)
Temperature starts rising as soon as the platform lifts to high poeitlon and continues ta
rise at a linear rate throughot-rt the entire baking cyele'
The heat rise rare may be programed in units of twa degf*s Celcius' A cornmonly used
rate is 5{i"C/mn* (i22"F/mn*)'
Heat rise rate is constanl even if there are mains voltage fluctuations (within a 20 volts
limit).

Impcrtan* This demand cannot be in any case superior to the demand "Vacuunn

In other words, after a linear pre-drying eyele at 30OoC (570"F)' vacuum can be
programed to start at around 60S"C/700"C (11'7Z"Fi1nZ"n.
This technique offefs a number $f avanta8es:
- No thermal choek
- Eiimination sf organic dYes
- U*ear pre-drying
- Even drying of the workpiece on all surfaces
-Clcle without v&.euum;
tfVacuurn start' and ttvacuum release" temperature must be set at 0"C {32tP}'
