What to do if my Binder FDL 115 Oven chamber doesn’t heat up and shows ‘RESET ALARM’?
- J
  Joshua Pearson IIIAug 17, 2025
  If your Binder oven chamber isn't heating up, the LED labeled 'AIR' is lit, 'RESET ALARM' appears on Display 2, and you hear an audible signal, it could be due to several reasons. First, the prepurging time may have started after pressing the 'START' button, so allow approximately 2 minutes for it to complete. Ensure the chamber door is completely closed, then press the 'START' button and wait about 2 minutes. This issue can also occur after a power failure, in which case you should press the 'START' button and wait approximately 2 minutes. Other potential causes include a blocked exhaust air channel, which requires checking the exhaust air system, or a blocked intake opening due to a dirty filter, which necessitates changing or cleaning the filter.

What to do if my Binder oven chamber doesn’t heat up, the safety device LED is lit, and the controller display is off?

  If your Binder oven chamber isn't heating up, the 'AIR' LED is not lit, the safety device LED is lit, the controller display is off, but the fan is running, it's possible the safety device has shut off the oven due to reaching a temperature limit. Allow the oven to cool down and press the “RESET” button. Also, check the temperature set-point and the setting of the safety device, and select a suitable limit value if necessary.

What to do if there is no volumetric flow rate in my Binder FDL 115 Oven and it shows ‘RESET ALARM’?

  Tamara HarveyAug 23, 2025
  If your Binder oven shows no volumetric flow rate for fresh air and forced-air circulation, the LED “AIR” is lit, ‘RESET ALARM’ is indicated on Display 2, and you hear an acoustical signal, it could be that the chamber door is not closed completely. Close the chamber door completely, press pushbutton “START” and wait approx. 2 minutes. It could also be a condition following a power failure. Press pushbutton “START” and wait approx. 2 minutes.

Why are there deviations from heating-up times in my Binder FDL 115 Oven?
- L
  Laura ChavezAug 28, 2025
  If you observe deviations from the indicated heating-up times in your Binder oven, it may be due to the oven being fully loaded. To resolve this, either reduce the load in the oven or allow for longer heating-up times.

What to do if there is no fresh/exhaust air flow in my Binder FDL 115 and it shows ‘RESET ALARM’?
- K
  Kimberly ShafferAug 31, 2025
  If there is no fresh air and/or no exhaust air flow in your Binder oven, the LED “AIR” is lit, ‘RESET ALARM’ is indicated on Display 2, and you hear an acoustical signal, it could be that the intake opening is blocked due to a soiled filter. Change or clean the filter and check the exhaust air system.

Why is my Binder FDL 115 program duration longer than programmed?
- W
  wardmichaelSep 3, 2025
  If your Binder oven program duration is longer than programmed, it may be due to inappropriate tolerances being programmed. For rapid transition phases, do NOT program tolerance limits in order to permit maximum heating speed.

Why does my Binder FDL 115 Oven program stop one section too early?
- M
  Miguel CallahanSep 6, 2025
  If your Binder oven program stops one section too early, it could be that the program line is incomplete. When programming, define the end value of the desired cycle by adding an additional section with a section time of at least one minute (with setting set-point ramp).

Why does the Binder FDL 115 controller return to Normal Display?
- R
  robinsonalexaSep 8, 2025
  If the controller of your Binder oven returns to Normal Display from any level, it is because no button was pressed for more than 120 seconds. Repeat entries and enter the values rapidly.

Why have programs been deleted on my Binder FDL 115?
- P
  patelmorganSep 12, 2025
  If programs have been deleted on your Binder oven, it is because of a change from 2 programs to 1 program or vice-versa. When changing, ensure that the programs are no longer needed.
