RTC AG-1215 Furnace Refurbished with new Electricals and Control system

COLORADO, USA  August 2011.  Complete replacement of controls and electricals on an existing 7-zone infrared furnace used for organic burnout was completed in one week.  Dual thermocouples and a new independent overtemperture monitoring system provides shutdown protection.  A 3-port chamber sampling system with source sampling was added complete with oxygen analyzer and oxygen levels monitored by the furnace software.  Element monitoring system monitors the integrity of the furnace lamps and alerts operators to any failure.  To reduce downtime new electrical panels were assembled in FurnacePros factory in Orange and shipped to the field for installation and hookup.  The new isolated motor control panel and belt drive motor package allows smooth belt performance at low speeds.   New PLC controls with updated ProControl(TM) software were installed on our standard Optiplex platform with RAID1 dual drives.  ev11-05
