Features
Heater Positioning – The chamber is mounted to actuators at each end allowing for
variations on product elevation. Each actuator can operate independently allowing for up
to 15
° off chamber tilt. This can be useful when product sagging is occurring.
Water Cooling – Each reflector is designed with an internal coolant passageway to allow
coolant to flow through its entire length during operation. Water lines run from the fittings
on the base of the cart to the heater. Adequate cooling water is required during operation
of the Model 4069E. Required cooling-water flow rates are listed in Specifications.
Air Cooling – A cooling fan is designed into the Model 4069 housing and provides
ambient airflow through the heater body. This airflow helps to prevent air-borne
contamination from depositing on the reflector surfaces. It also provides cooling to the
quartz halogen lamp end seals.
Split Quartz Liner – A split quartz liner is included with the Model 4069 and provides
contamination protection for the aluminum reflectors. When installed in the heater, the
quartz liner protects the aluminum reflector and lamp from contaminants released in the
heating process, resulting in maximum efficiency of the heater.
Operator Interface – The operator interface includes a Watlow PID controller for setting
the power level to the lamps, On/Off switch, indicator light, actuator adjust switches and a
fast stop.
Power Control Cabinet
− A NEMA 12 cabinet containing components to accurately
control power to the system.
Product Motion Detection – An optional low torque roller providing rotational feedback
can be positioned at either end of the chamber to signal product stoppage. If no signal is
detected the system immediately will shut down power to the chamber thus reducing the
incidence of the product burning in the chamber. When motion is restored, the lamp
voltage will be re-applied to a the preset value.
Air Curing Nozzles – Optional twin air curing nozzles can be attached to the input end of
the heater. These nozzles force air down the length of the quartz liner and provide a
convective component to the curing process. This option includes a fitting for house air, a
filter and regulator in addition to the nozzles.
Exhaust Hood – An optional exhaust hood attaches to the exit end of the single chamber
system or between chambers on a dual chamber system to collect smoke and gasses given
off during heating the process. 3 inch diameter is used all 12R units and a 4” diameter is
used on all 18R units.
Pyrometer – The optional pyrometer is useful for monitoring product temperature in
sensitive areas. The mounting bracket provides multiple sensing positions for full product
coverage. This option includes a fitting for house air, a filter and regulator in addition to
the pyrometer.
