750°F Gas-fired Vertical Conveyor Oven from Grieve

No. 917 is a gas-heated, 750°F vertical conveyor oven from Grieve, currently used for sintering Teflon tubes.  Workspace dimensions measure 24”W x 26”D x 53”H.  The secondary cooling zone on this oven measures 24”W x 26”D x 54”H.  350,000 BTU/hr. are installed in a modulating natural gas burner, while a 2,000 CFM, 2-HP recirculating blower provides horizontal airflow to the workload.

29 trays, each 18” x 5”, rise vertically through load / unload zone, pass up through the oven heat and then down into the cooling zone below the oven.  A 1/2-HP motor drive, variable from .05 to 9 inches per minute, moves the trays through the unit.

This Grieve vertical conveyor oven features an aluminized steel exterior and interior, plus 6” thick insulated walls.  Two 12” diameter tubeaxial fans, each driven by a 3/4-HP motor, push / pull air through the cooling zone.

All safety devices required by IRI, FM and NFPA Standard 86 for gas-heated equipment are onboard this Grieve oven, including a 325 CFM, 1/3-HP powered forced exhauster.  No. 917 also features a digital indicating temperature controller and 10” diameter circular chart recorder.
