The work chamber is constructed of 304L or 316L stainless steel and features Georgia Oven Company’s proprietary high strength gusseting system. The interior of the chamber is fully welded, which adds strength and improves sealing capabilities. The chamber is passivated once all welding has been completed, leaving a clean, impurity-free finish. Other features include:
Proprietary, electrically transitioned aluminum or stainless steel platens machined true and flat.
Multilayer insulation on the rear wall where chamber penetrations and ports are provided.
A top mounted powered or unpowered draft inducer port which aids in process cooling, maintains oven exterior at safe operator temperatures and reduces the amount of thermal loading to the surrounding environment.
(Top mounted draft inducing is recommended for applications over 302°F (150°C). Unpowered draft inducers should be connected to a negative pressure in-house exhaust system.)
The vessel door features Georgia Oven’s proprietary ultra-heavy gusseting system, providing anti-deflection capabilities during demanding thermal cycles. Vessel doors utilize a multi-layer insulation system – maximizing efficiency, reducing losses and thermal loading to the surrounding environment. The vessel door features multi-lay internal heat shields that produce a thermal drag between the work chamber and the vessel door, ensuring maximum safe operation and extended processing times. Large-diameter, one-piece silicone door O-rings – for superior heat-resistance and sealing.
Vacuum levels are achieved using simple single set-point direct acting solenoids, fully programmable from the F4AV Controller. Accuracy is typically +/-2Torr during vacuum and +/-1Torr using a flow and pressure regulated backfill source. A digital absolute vacuum transducer provides accurate and stable pressure level feedback to the F4AV Controller. Typical operating control range is in Torr, 760 to 1, but can be easily set up for 0.0 to 30.0 inches of Mercury.
