INSTALLATION
REQUIRED AMBIENT CONDITIONS
This oven is built for use indoors at room temperatures between 15°C and 40°C (59°F and 104°F), at no
greater than 80% Relative Humidity (at 25°C / 77°F). Operating outside these conditions may adversely
affect the oven temperature performance.
When selecting a location to install the unit, consider all environmental conditions that can adversely
impact its temperature performance. These include:
• Proximity to other ovens, autoclaves, and any device that produces significant radiant heat
• Heating and cooling vents or other sources of fast-moving air currents
• High-traffic areas
• Direct sunlight
REQUIRED CLEARANCES
These clearances are required to provide air flows for ventilation and cooling.
6 inches (152 mm) of clearance is required on the sides.
12 inches (305 mm) of headspace clearance is required between the top of the unit and any
overhead partitions.
Do not place objects on top of the oven.
A KF-25 vacuum port is located on the back of the oven for introducing vacuum-rated thermocouple
feedthroughs into the chamber or connecting to an external vacuum supply source. Leave sufficient
clearance for operators to safely access this port.
