Intended Use
The Thermoline drying ovens 80F, 150F, 250F, 500F, 630F and 700F models are designed and manufactured to remove large quantities of moisture from products and samples. Designed to operate between ambient +10°C and 200°C, the Thermoline drying oven offers an industry-standard in moisture removal. Thermoline also offers specific macadamia models with a
reduced maximum temperature and extra shelves.
- Operating Temperature of Ambient +10°C to 200°C
- Operating Temperature of Ambient +10°C to 70°C for macadamia models
Uncrating/Unpacking
Unpacking process for foam wrapped and crated:
The drying oven will be delivered foam wrapped and on its castors via sensitive freight (Fig 1) or in a box on a skid (Fig 2).- If the drying oven is delivered on a skid, a forklift may be required to lift it off the skid.
- Please only dispose of the packaging once the the oven is inspected. If any damage is found, contact your supplier or Thermoline immediately at:
- Phone: +61 2 9604 3911
- Email: service@thermoline.com.au
Moving
Moving the drying oven:
- Ensure that the oven is rolled on an even and flat surface. Uneven surfaces can cause the oven to fall over.
IMPORTANT
Drying ovens are 'Top Heavy'. Do not move the oven too quickly. (Fig 3 & 4)
Operating Environment
Oven Location
- Place the oven away from direct sunlight and heat sources (e.g., heaters).
- Ensure the room's ambient temperature does not exceed the oven's operational limits.
- Drying ovens should be stored inside at all times. Failure to adhere to this could cause significant drops in cabinet performance and damage to items stored inside.
Environmental Conditions
| Condition | Temperature | Humidity |
| Extreme Operating Environment | 10°C to 32°C (±2.0°C) | Up to 85% RH |
| Optimal Environment | 23°C (±2.0°C) | 50% RH (±5% RH) |
Bench Top Location
- Under no circumstances should ovens be stacked on top of each other (Fig. 2).
- Thermoline 150-litre ovens are equipped with removable castors for benchtop storage. To safely remove the castors, carefully tip the oven onto its back or side and unscrew the castors from the base (Fig. 3). This task requires two people—please seek assistance.
Electrical Connections
Depending on the model, drying ovens require either a 10amp, 230V, 50Hz power supply or a 15amp, 230V, 50Hz power supply. The specific requirements for each model are shown in the table below:
| Model | Electrical Requirements |
|
TD-80F TD-150F TD-500FM TD-700FM |
10A/230V |
|
TD-500F TD-630F TD-700F |
15A/230V |
Electrical Conditions
- All drying ovens include a 2.5m removable mains power lead with a three-pin plug. For models requiring a 15A connection, a straight plug is provided, while other models use a right-angle female IEC plug.
- Ensure the product is reasonably distanced from the power supply to prevent strain on the lead.
- Each oven features a male IEC socket for power connection.
Important Notes
- Always use a dedicated outlet for the oven.
- Do not use power boards or extension cords to connect the oven.
WARNINGS
- Do not store items on top of the oven as this will also affect ventilation!
- CAUTION: When installing multiple ovens in the same location, ensure they are positioned so that warm air exhausted from one oven is not drawn directly into another.
- Drying ovens should be stored inside at all times. Failure to adhere to this could cause significant drops in cabinet performance and damage to items stored inside.
- Drying ovens are not suitable for use with flammable solvents! They are fitted with components that may be the source of ignition.
- The drying ovens are designed for large capacity drying, and hot moist air will be discharged.
