Drying ovens from the APT.line™

FD series:
Drying ovens with forced convection

FD series units are primarily used in applications needing rapid drying and sterilization. Totally homogenous temperature distribution, rapid dynamic response, and a special air turbine which was developed by us and has 20% higher output, have made the FD series a genuine time-saving device.

1) value without window
2) up to 98 % of the set value
3) The air change depends on the inner chamber- and ambient temperature. Further measurement of air change rate in acc. to ASTM D5374 with definition and protocol are optional.

All specified technical data apply for standard equipment operating at an ambient temperature of + 25 °C (77 °F), with line voltage fluctuations of ± 10%. These typical average values for series equipment were determined in accordance with the BINDER factory standard. They are based upon the recommended distances from the inner chamber walls, namely 10% of height, width and depth. Differing ambient temperatures or variances in the design of individual equipment may produce different performance data.

We therefore recommend that equipment be calibrated and/or validated on a case-by-case basis when working at the extremes of the permissible ambient temperature range.
