Failure to adhere to any Safety Warning, or failure to follow the proper operating procedures listed throughout any of the information provided, could cause damage to your equipment, personal injury, or death.
  • Page 6 BLUE M Do not stack multiple units on top of one another. Do not exceed the temperature rating of your chamber. Human exposure to temperature extremes can cause injury. Do not open oven doors until oven temperature drops below 200° F (93° C), when applicable. Take appropriate precautions before opening oven doors and upon handling any chamber contents.

  • Page 7: Product Specifications & Overview

    BLUE M PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS & OVERVIEW Application This manual applies to the Model ESP400 Industrial Oven, which is a mechanical convection type oven designed for constant temperature work and where fast run-up / cool-down rates are required. A unique airflow management system permits air circulation to be varied from a single pass type system to a full recirculation type system.

  • Page 8: Conditioning Functions

    BLUE M Conditioning Functions Heating is achieved by recirculating oven air through open air nichrome wire heater elements in the conditioning plenum. The plenum is located in the bottom of the chamber. Cooling is achieved by opening the intake and exhaust dampers. Air flow is generated by a centrifugal blower wheel mounted in the conditioning plenum.

  • Page 9: Operating Parameters And Requirements

    Operators and service personnel must be familiar with the location and function of all controls and the inherent dangers of the equipment before operating or maintaining it. TPS shall not be liable for any damages, including incidental and/or consequential damages, regardless of the legal theory asserted, including negligence and/or strict liability.

  • Page 14: Exhaust Connection

    BLUE M Exhaust Connection A 3” diameter exhaust port is located on the left side of the oven with a manual butterfly damper. An exhaust guard is installed to prevent contact with the extremely hot port surface. A draft diverter, vacuum breaker, exhaust hood, or similar device should be connected between the oven and the exhaust.

    Otherwise, erratic operation and damage may occur to your equipment, which may void your warranty. If you have any questions, please call the TPS Service Department. Important! One of the most common causes of equipment malfunction is low line voltage as the power source to the unit.

  • Page 16: Application Of Power

    BLUE M Making the Power Supply Connection to the Chamber: A main power disconnect is not provided with your chamber. We recommend that a fused disconnect switch on a separate branch circuit be installed as the power source to your chamber, in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.

  • Page 17: Air Circulation System

    BLUE M AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM A high volume horizontal airflow system is employed with the conditioning system to provide maximum temperature uniformity. The heating and generation of airflow occurs in the conditioning plenum located below the workspace. The plenum is isolated from the workspace so that no direct heat radiation can occur. Air circulation is generated by a centrifugal type blower wheel, which is driven by an externally mounted motor.
  • Page 18 BLUE M The photo below shows the conditioning plenum with both the main cover and separate heater cover removed. An air diffuser panel is mounted on the right side wall to uniformly direct airflow to both the top and bottom of the perforated duct wall. The air intake damper is shown fully open. Air Diffuser Panel Blower Wheel...

Intake Damper CONDITIONING PLENUM – INTAKE DAMPER FULLY CLOSED Cover Plate Removed THERMOCOUPLE WIRES – REAR OF OVEN Adjustable Air Intake and Exhaust Dampers: Adjustable air intake and exhaust dampers are employed to vary air circulation between a One-Pass type system and a Full Recirculated type system.
  • Page 20 BLUE M Intake Damper: The intake damper includes a pivot assembly with a linkage to the butterfly damper. You must loosen the knob to slide the pivot assembly right or left, which opens and closes the damper. A damper setting scale is indented into the frame. It is marked “Closed, 1, 2, 3, Open”. Make sure you tighten the knob after changing the setting.
  • Page 21 BLUE M One-Pass Air Circulation System: To operate with a One-Pass Air Flow System, the air intake and exhaust dampers must be fully opened. When the intake damper is fully opened, it will totally close off the recirculation path to the conditioning plenum from the left duct wall.

  • Page 22: Electric Heating System & Control

    BLUE M ELECTRIC HEATING SYSTEM & CONTROL Overview: Heating of the oven is achieved by recirculating oven air through an open-air heavy gauge nichrome wire heater element in the conditioning plenum. The element is configured in a serpentine pattern within a cylindrical stack and supported by ceramic disks.

  • Page 23: Temperature Control - Partlow 1160+ Controller

    BLUE M TEMPERATURE CONTROL - Partlow 1160+ Controller Controller Features Temperature control is achieved with the Partlow Model 1160+ Controller. The 1160+ is a non-profiling type, 1/16 DIN controller with the following main features. The Type J thermocouple used for temperature sensing is placed in the airflow at the top of the workspace.
