The precautions for operating a silicon carbide reaction sintering electric furnace include the following aspects:

Equipment inspection and preparation:

Before use, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the silicon carbide reaction sintering electric furnace to ensure that the furnace body, heating elements, control system, and other parts are in good condition.

Clean the furnace to avoid impurities from affecting the sintering process.

Temperature and time control:

Set appropriate sintering temperature and holding time based on the properties of silicon carbide material and required product performance. The sintering temperature of silicon carbide is usually high and needs to be strictly controlled within the specified range.

Pay close attention to the temperature and material changes inside the furnace to ensure a smooth sintering process.

Atmosphere control:

Silicon carbide reaction sintering electric furnaces usually require the introduction of non reactive gases (such as nitrogen, argon, etc.) to maintain a stable atmosphere inside the furnace.

Ensure the gas supply system is functioning properly, regularly inspect gas pipelines and valves to prevent gas leaks.

According to the sintering process requirements, precisely control the composition and pressure of the furnace atmosphere.

Safe operation:

When operating the silicon carbide reaction sintering electric furnace, it is necessary to wear professional protective equipment such as protective clothing, gloves, goggles, etc. to ensure personal safety.

It is prohibited to operate alone, and there must be sufficient personnel on duty to take timely measures in emergency situations.

Regularly check the sealing of the equipment and whether there is any air leakage at the connection points to ensure the stability and safety of the furnace atmosphere.

Equipment maintenance and upkeep:

Regularly maintain and upkeep the silicon carbide reaction sintering electric furnace, such as replacing heating elements and cleaning up accumulated dust inside the furnace.

Pay attention to checking whether the insulation material of the furnace body is intact. If it is damaged, it should be replaced in a timely manner to improve the insulation effect.

Emergency Management:

Familiarize oneself with emergency response procedures. In case of emergencies such as fires or leaks, immediate emergency measures should be taken and reported to superiors.

In the process of handling emergencies, adhere to safety principles and ensure the safety of personnel.

Operation record:

During the operation, record in detail parameters such as temperature, pressure, and gas flow rate for subsequent analysis and comparison.

Record the operational status and abnormal situations of the equipment in order to promptly identify and address potential issues.
