2.Unit description

BINDER drying and heating ovens FED are equipped with an electronic PID-controller with digital display. The temperature is indicated with an accuracy of one degree.

BINDER drying and heating ovens with forced convection FED are heated electrically and are ventilated by fan-assisted, forced-air circulation. They FED are equipped with a temperature safety device according to DIN12880 (chap. 7).

The APT.line™ preheating chamber system guarantees high level of spatial and time-based temperature precision, thanks to the direct and distributed air circulation into the interior. The fan supports exact attainment and maintenance of the desired temperature accuracy.

The inner chamber, the pre-heating chamber and the inside of the doors are all made of stainless steel V2A (German material no. 1.4301, US equivalent AISI 304). When operating the unit at temperatures above 150 °C, the impact of the oxygen in the air may cause discoloration of the metallic surfaces (yellowish-brown or blue) by natural oxidation processes. These colorations are harmless and will in no way impair the function or quality of the unit. The housing is RAL 7035 powder-coated. All corners and edges are also completely coated.

All unit functions are easy and comfortable to use thanks to their clear arrangement. Major features are easy cleaning of all unit parts and avoidance of undesired contamination.

BINDER drying and heating ovens FED are equipped with a serial interface RS 422 for computer communication, e.g. via the communication software APT-COM™ 3 DataControlSystem (option, chap. 8.1). For further options, see chap. 12.5.

The model FED 720 is equipped with four castors. Both front castors can be locked by brakes.

The unit can be operated in a temperature range of 5 °C / 9 °F above room temperature up to 300 °C /

572 °F.

3.4Location of installation and ambient conditions

Set up the drying and heating oven FED on an even and non-flammable surface, free from vibration and in a well-ventilated, dry location and align it using a spirit level. The site of installation must be capable of supporting the unit’s weight (see technical data, chap. 12.4). The chambers are designed for setting up inside a building (indoor use).

CAUTION

Danger of overheating.

Damage to the unit.

Do NOT set up units in non-ventilated recesses.

Ensure sufficient ventilation for dispersal of the heat.

•Permissible ambient temperature range during operation: +18 °C up to +40 °C. At elevated ambient temperature values, fluctuations in temperature can occur.

The ambient temperature should not be substantially higher than the indicated ambient temperature of +25 °C to which the specified technical data relate. For other ambient conditions, deviations from the indicated data are possible.

•Permissible ambient humidity: 70 % r.H. max., non-condensing.

•Installation height: max. 3000 m / 9842 ft. above sea level.

When placing several units of the same size side by side, maintain a minimum distance of 250 mm between each unit. Wall distances: rear 100 mm, sides 160 mm. Spacing above the unit of at least 100 mm must also be accounted for.

Two devices up to size 115l can be piled on top of each other. For this purpose, place rubber pads under all four feet of the upper unit to prevent the device from slipping.

CAUTION

Sliding or tilting of the upper unit. Damage to the units.

 When stacking, place rubber pads under all four feet of the upper unit.

To completely separate the unit from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug. Install the unit in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily pulled in case of danger.

Do not install or operate the drying and heating oven FED in potentially explosive areas.

DANGER

Explosion hazard. Danger of death.

Do NOT operate the unit in potentially explosive areas.

 KEEP explosive dust or air-solvent mixtures AWAY from the vicinity of the unit..

•When connecting, please observe the regulations specified by the local electricity supply company and as well as the VDE directives (for Germany). We recommend the use of a residual current circuit breaker.

•Pollution degree (acc. to IEC 61010-1): 2

•Over-voltage category (acc. to IEC 61010-1): II

CAUTION

Danger of incorrect power supply voltage.

Damage to the equipment.

Check the power supply voltage before connection and start-up.

Compare the power supply voltage with the data indicated on the type plate.

See also electrical data (chap.12.4).

To completely separate the unit from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug. Install the unit in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily pulled in case of danger.

4.2Connection to a suction plant (optional)

When directly connecting a suction plant the spatial temperature exactitude, the heating-up and the recovering times and the maximum temperature will be negatively influenced. So no suction plant should be directly connected to the exhaust duct.

Active suction from the oven must only be performed together with extraneous air. Perforate the connecting piece to the suction device or place an exhaust funnel at some distance to the exhaust duct.
