Class a ovens and furnaces.
An oven with an interior volume of 100 ft3 and exhaust ventilation of 125 ft3 min would require 3 2 min purge time 100 ft3 x 4 400 125 3 2 min.
Whether you have a direct gas fired furnace or an electrically heated industrial oven understanding and following the nfpa 86 standard for ovens and furnaces can minimize the risk of a catastrophic event at your plant.
Known for tighter temperature tolerances higher yields and consistent repeatable results.
The single most important thing to know safety first.
Nfpa 86 defines ovens for these applications as class a ovens.
An oven or furnace that has heat utilization equipment operating at approximately atmospheric pressure wherein there is a potential explosion or fire hazard that could be occasioned by the presence of flammable volatiles or combustible materials processed or heated in the furnace.
Ovens are separated by class per nfpa 86.
