Class A Ovens / Solvent Venting Ovens / Explosion Proof (XP) Ovens
Thermal Product Solutions supply Class A explosion proof ovens manufactured by Blue M and Gruenberg. These robust solvent venting ovens are designed to house volatile atmospheres used to handle and expel hazardous and flammable vapors.
Blue M Friction-Aire® Safety Oven
Blue M Friction Aire® ovens provide a controlled heat source without heating elements, which eliminates atmospheric explosions and ignitions when working with hazardous Class 1, Group D materials. Class 1 atmospheres contain flammable vapors, and Group D materials include many solvents commonly used in finishing applications, such as lacquers and paints.
Chamber Size: 1.3 to 13.7 cubic feetKey Specifications
- Temperature Range: +25°C above ambient to 260°C (500°F)
- Control: +/-0.5°C
- Uniformity: at +100°C - 0.5°C
- Resolution: 0.10°C
- Run up time to +150°C: 120 minutes
Blue M Class A Batch Oven
Blue M Class A Batch Ovens are mechanical convection electric chambers that include safety features recommended in NFPA Bulletin 86 as standard. The design of the chamber concedes that the element temperature may be well above the auto-ignition point of some flammable materials, but this is mitigated by maintaining a non-explosive mixture through the use of higher than normal exhaust rates. Increased heating element kW compensates for this exhaust factor.
Key Specifications
- Temperature Range:+15°C above ambient to 316°C
- Control:+/-0.5°C
- Run up time to +316°C: 90 minutes
Gruenberg Silver Select Panelized Class A Truck In Ovens
Gruenberg designs and manufactures a complete line of panelized Class A Truck-In and walk-in industrial ovens. Ideal for most solvent evaporation processes.
Chamber Size: 150 to 360 cubic feet
Key Specifications
- Maximum Temperatures Range: 150°F to 500°F
Gruenberg Hurricane Oven Series
The Gruenberg Hurricane Oven Series utilizes two blowers to provide a patent-pending intrinsically safe heating method for applications involving hazardous Class 1 materials that may contain flammable vapors, as well as Group D materials which may include but not limited to many solvents used in finishing applications, such as:
- Pre-heating
- Wet paint curing
- Powder curing
- Adhesive curing
- Ink curing
- Bonding
- Drying
- Heat treating
Blue M CSP Safety Oven
This small, cost-effective industrial safety oven meets NFPA Bulletin 86 requirements for handling solvents and expelling hazardous vapor. Ideal for industrial safety oven applications such as flash curing paint samples, drying solvents, curing epoxies or adhesives. This industrial safety oven is also useful in laboratories that require a variety of product loads.
Chamber Size: 3 cubic feet
Key Specifications- Temperature Range: 10°C above ambient to 343°C
- Control: .25%
