Common faults and solutions of RTP rapid annealing furnace

RTP rapid annealing furnace may encounter various common faults during use, and these faults and their solutions can be summarized as follows:

1. Common faults
Uneven heating or partial area without heating
Reason: The heating element works for a long time and is susceptible to damage due to factors such as high temperature and oxidation.

The actual temperature does not match the set temperature, resulting in a significant deviation
Reason: Temperature sensor malfunction, controller malfunction, furnace structure problem, or control system failure, etc.

Cracks appear in the furnace
Reason: The furnace material has been working at high temperatures for a long time or has been damaged due to improper operation during use.

The vacuum degree inside the furnace cannot meet the requirements
Reason: Poor sealing of the vacuum system, decreased performance of the pump unit, or pipeline blockage.

The device cannot start, the display screen is not showing or displaying abnormally
Reason: Power line malfunction, controller malfunction, damaged display screen, etc.

2. Solution method
Uneven heating or partial area without heating
Solution: Use a thermal imager or infrared thermometer to check if the heating element temperature is uniform. If damage is found, replace the heating element with a qualified one in a timely manner.

The actual temperature does not match the set temperature
Solution: Check if the temperature sensor is working properly and replace it promptly if it is damaged; Check if the controller is functioning properly. If there is a malfunction, repair or replace it according to the specific situation; Check if the furnace structure is intact, and if there is any deformation or air leakage, make corresponding repairs.

Cracks appear in the furnace
Solution: After the furnace cracks, it should be immediately stopped from use and professional personnel should be contacted for repair or replacement. Regularly inspect and maintain the furnace to avoid damage caused by long-term high-temperature work.

The vacuum degree inside the furnace cannot meet the requirements
Solution: Check the sealing of the vacuum system and repair any leaks in a timely manner; Check the performance of the pump unit, and if the performance decreases, maintenance or replacement is required; Clean up pipeline blockages and keep the pipeline unobstructed.

The device cannot start, the display screen is not showing or displaying abnormally
Solution: Check if the power line is connected properly, and repair it promptly if there is any open or short circuit; Check whether the controller and display screen are working properly, and repair or replace them accordingly if any faults occur; Regularly inspect and maintain the electrical components to ensure stable and reliable electrical performance of the equipment.
