Large Forced Convection Oven

Temperature variations in Incubators and Ovens and Control options:

Thermostatic control (dial setting which, from experience, provides accurate, reliable temperature) is standard. Alternatively, digital PID control with digital display (dial temperature and feedback temperature digital display) are available. The latter makes a thermometer redundant.
Ovens and incubators are constructed in different ways to achieve even temperature distribution and quick temperature recovery at varying cost. All but the smallest size incubator and oven are available with the different heat distribution systems. The smallest oven and incubator are supplied with gravity convection only. Gravity convection is cheapest, though it does not result in best air circulation and greatest temperature uniformity within the chamber. In a given spot the temperature will, however, be constant within about 0.3oC. Mechanical convection (a stirrer) markedly improves temperature uniformity. Best, but most expensive, is forced air convection within a chamber jacket. This type of incubator may fluctuate at 37oC by +/- 0.1oC in one spot (oven at 100oC by 0.5oC). Within the chamber, the temperature can vary by +/-0.5oC (ovens +/- 2oC). Variations of forced air convection systems are side, up and down draft ovens and incubators.
Options for various temperature regulating and forced circulating systems are available for all incubators and ovens - except the smallest, the E14 (incubator) and E24 (oven).

GRAVITY CONVECTION INCUBATORS
Spiral type elements in the heating chamber are used for even temperature distribution. Accurate control is obtained with either a snap action hydraulic thermostat solid state analog instrument or digital indicator controller. This type can be supplied with stirrer (mechanical convection).

LARGE CAPACITY INCUBATORS
Information on incubators with a greater working volume will be provided on request.

*Special types made to customer's specifications*

ProSciTech routinely sells these items below the manufacturer's retail price.

Incubators may be equipped to suit requirements and budgets.
Variations available:
G - gravity convection, thermostat temperature control
GD - gravity convection, digital PID temperature control
M - mechanical convection, thermostat
MD - mechanical convection, digital PID
FD - forced convection, vertical draught, digital PID
M and MD are available for sizes 15, 16 and 17.

Digital PID
PID stands for Proportional-Integral-Derivative control.
Digital PID may also be supplied 'programmable' or the digital control may be supplied with a computer interface for computer control.
The Yokogawa 16 step programmable PID has 1 program of 16 steps, 8 ramps and 7 dwells. Example: Start at ambient temperature (25°C, first dwell), move to 50°C in 5 minutes with a first ramp of 5C°/min. Stay at 50°C for 30 minutes (second dwell) before moving to 100°C in 5 minutes with a second ramp of 10C°/min etc.
The Shimaden 40 step allows 1 program of 40 steps, 2 programs of 20 steps each, or 4 programs of 10 steps each. Frequently used programs can be stored and used again without having to reprogram the PID.

MINIMUM FREE SPACE OVEN

This oven conforms to the requirements of BS 1016 and has a working chamber of 274 x 158 x 28 mm.

The working chamber is contained in an outer chamber, into which are fitted the heating elements.

The sensing element for the control systems is attached to the outside of the working chamber.

The temperature controller switches power to the elements via a solid state relay. Maximum continuous working temperature is 200°C. Temperature fluctuation (under normal conditions) is within 0.25°C. This design gives extremely uniform conditions within the oven, very close temperature control and a high degree of reproductibility of results.

Oven temperature can be checked by insertion of a thermometer into the pocket at the back of the oven, which protrudes into the centre of the chamber. The door is fitted with a silicone rubber gasket, ensuring adequate gas tightness, and is held in place by two captive bolts.

At the top rear of the case is the nitrogen inlet. This is connected by a copper tube passing through the heating chamber to the oven proper, ensuring that the nitrogen is at the correct temperature before being admitted to the oven. The gas outlet is from the top front of the working chamber.
Samples are placed inside the MFSO then heated to required temperature. When the samples have been heated for the required time they are removed and placed into the desiccator to cool with the nitrogen also connected to the desiccator.

The desiccator for use with the oven consists of a welded steel case with a thick bottom to give high heat capacity and reduce cooling time. Inlet and outlet tubes are provided at the front and rear to allow for the passage of nitrogen.

VACUUM OVENS


Temperature uniformity within a chamber is more difficult to achieve in a vacuum - since fans are ineffective and convection currents do not form without air. In a large chamber this could result in over 10 degrees variation. Heating elements under each shelf and separate temperature controls can reduce that variation markedly. Please ask for heated shelves if you require greater temperature uniformity.

Vacuum ovens are also available for higher temperatures - 300, 350 and even 400 degrees. The hotter vacuum ovens require modifications to the window and vacuum sealing, additional to the obvious insulation, elements controls. Only the largest vacuum oven (72 litres) is supplied with a safety polycarbonate shield. These shields are available options for the smaller ovens and they are especially recommended for the hotter ovens.

Vacuum connection on all vacuum ovens are 12.5mm (1/2") and gas inlets 9.5mm (3/8") unless otherwise requested.
Vacuum pump: All vacuum ovens require a vacuum pump. VF3-220 on page V2 is suitable for most purposes. Vacuum pump on V2
