Rotary Hearth Ovens

Rotary Heath Ovens are designed to allow loading and unloading of a single part at the same location.  They are ideal for heating smaller parts at a work station where a heated part is required repetitively.  As an operator removes a hot part, a cold part is loaded for heating. Our extensive experience working closely with our customers ensures we can design a rotary hearth oven for your process.

Rotary Hearth Ovens Model Details:

Standard Features for Rotary Hearth Ovens

Certifications
  • UL Listed Control Panel
  • Meets the Requirements of the Following Standards:
    • NFPA 86 (Standard for Ovens and Furnaces)
    • NFPA 70 (National Electric Code)
    • FM (Factory Mutual)
    • OS

Caution:

    • Ovens processing combustible materials are required to have a fire suppression system per NFPA 86
    • If flammable solvents or vapors are present in an oven, OSHA requires conformance with NFPA 86 Class A Oven requirements.  A powered forced exhauster and other non-standard safety equipment must be added.  See Class A Equipment for Solvent Processing resource page for more information.

  • SCR Power Controller

    Electrical modification adding an SCR Power Controller. Features:

    •Silicon controlled rectifier power controllers are completely solid state industrial controllers that ensure precise proportioning of electric power to the heating elements.

    •Oven temperature is maintained smoothly and evenly over the entire temperature range of the unit.

    •SCR power controllers minimize maintenance, as there are no moving parts or electrical contacts to wear out.

    •Heating element fatigue is reduced since the elements do not cool between releases of electric power.

    •Zero voltage firing, including the first one half cycle of voltage, minimizes radio frequency and electromagnetic interference.

    •Transient voltage suppressor networks are included, and the units are provided with protective fusing.
