5.8 Chamber Venting for Models DCI & DCC
An inert atmosphere is maintained in the Model DCI and Model DCC ovens during the process cycle using
an injected inert gas.
Warning! Inert gases displace oxygen. A vent duct should be connected to the relief valve or
vent port and run to a location outside of the building. This should be done in accordance with all
local code regulations. Make sure the area surrounding the chamber is well ventilated.
Warning! Exhaust ports and vents can become extremely hot. Do not touch. Avoid contact
between the port and flammable materials. Do not vent exhaust against combustible surfaces,
areas, or materials.
Model DCI:
A pressure relief valve (PRV) is installed with the
Model DCI to cause a slight positive pressure to be
established in the chamber during the process cycle.
PRV is designed to open when chamber pressure
rises above 0.5 PSIG. This valve is located at the top
of the oven with a Type 1/2” FPT connection. Make
sure the connection is secure.
Model DCC:
A vent port is installed with the Model DCC to prevent any excess
pressure buildup from occurring within the chamber. This port is
located on top of the chamber with a Type 1/2" MPT connection. Make
sure the connection is secure.
