Inert Gas Models
(For parts with up to 50% combustibles. Max 540°C)

The ultimate in safety… Can handle any combustible that can legally be removed with heat, even space-age engineering plastics.

Inert Gas models (U.S. patent 4,557,203) expand the Controlled Pyrolysis systems with enhanced abilities to clean parts with heat rather than with chemicals. Inert Gas models leave the primary burner on all the time to produce an oxygen-deficient atmosphere inside the furnace, i.e., and approximately 10% oxygen instead of the usual 21% as in the air. As oxygen is necessary for ignition of any combustible material, more difficult materials with greater volatilities can be safely processed in larger amounts. The furnace and stack temperature controllers each operate double water spray mists at double set points for maximum protection. Back-up water spray for clogged nozzles, automatic-reset high limit, manual-reset high limit, and diagnostic panels are included. Optional melt collectors shorten cycle times and fuel expenses as certain materials will melt and flow which do not have to be completely processed to be removed.
