SAFETY • Never operate furnace in close proximity to combustible materials or place materials on top of the furnace. • Caution: To provide continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlet only. • The furnace must be electrically grounded to a three wire electrical outlet or receptacle. The electrical service provided must be a dedicated line of the proper size according to local electrical codes. • Disconnect the line cord before attempting to service the furnace.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS UNPACKING CAUTIONS: Carefully unpack and remove the furnace from its shipping carton. Save the carton and other packing material for future use in transporting the furnace.
PAGE 5
OPERATIONS RUNNING A PROGRAM: The furnace has 9 three stage programs and one single temperature hold program. The furnace is sold with the program parameters set to the factory defaults which can be used for testing. First time operation will require the user to enter their desired parameters into one of these programs. 1.
PAGE 6
CONTROL PANEL DESCRIPTION °C / °F changes the temperature from °C to °F and back. This key is not active when viewing parameters. LCD Display displays the furnace muffle temperature, program count down time, and program number. During parameter programming the display shows the current value and new value for confirmation. It signals program operation by flashing the colon in the program time. Rate key displays the ESC (Escape) key current program's heat rates in degrees per minute.
PAGE 7
PROGRAMMING: The furnace increases productivity and reliability for the operator because cycles or programs can be preprogrammed and operated automatically. Once programmed, the parameters are retained in memory even with the loss of power. Parameters are not retained in memory if entered during the operation of a program. Each program is made up of 3 stages which require 3 parameters each.

parameter will be displayed again. • The Hold key operates the same if pressed during the operation of a program with the following exception. Any new parameter entered is used only for that one program or cycle and not stored in memory. PROGRAM 0 Program 0 is a single temperature hold program. The furnace will heat to this temperature and maintain it as long as power is applied. 1. Press the 0 key. The display shows the current programmed temperature and the 0 program number. 2.

3. Pressing the green start s key will start the delay timer. - The corresponding LED will also light to indicate the Delay Start is selected. - If the program run time is longer than the current delay time the furnace will skip the delay and start the program immediately. LINKING PROGRAMS Programs can automatically run in sequence by using the Linking feature. With this method, a 6 stage (12 segment) program can be run automatically. Additional programs can also be linked as each program is completed.

SETUP & MAINTENANCE SETUP: The Vulcan furnace goes through a self test that lasts for 4 to 6 seconds each time that power is applied. After the test, the display will show the word "SETUP?" for approximately 5 seconds. In the Setup mode, several different options are available for the user to select. The first is the END OF PROGRAM operation which allows the user to select how the furnace should operate at the end of the program.
PAGE 13
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT/CALIBRATION: Every VULCAN furnace is calibrated in the factory at 1000°C. Under normal use the furnace should not require calibration. The electronics used in the VULCAN furnaces are very stable and will have minimal drifts over the life of the furnace. Thermocouple replacement could be a potential requirement for calibration if high accuracy is required. This calibration can be altered by entering a new Tcal value in the Setup mode listed previously.
PAGE 14
TROUBLESHOOTING ERROR CODES: Err codes can be cleared from the display by turning the front panel power switch off and then on again. Code Description Possible Cause Err 1 Over Temperature Err 2 Open Thermocouple Open TC tip, connection to TC, TC to PCB connection, computer PCB (TC) Err 3 Temp > Tmax Muffle temperature has exceeded the programmed limit temperature TMAX (see SETUP?).
