No. 996 is a gas-fired, 350°F (177°C) jumbo walk-in oven from Grieve Corp., currently used for batch processing large composite structures. Workspace dimensions measure 10’ W x 32’ D x 8’ H. The oven uses 1.2 million BTU/hr installed in a modulating natural gas burner to heat the unit, while 49,000 cfm total from two 20-hp recirculating blowers provide combination airflow to the workloads.
This jumbo walk-in batch oven features 4” insulated walls throughout, a removable top-mounted heat chamber (shown removed in photo), the oven body split into four sections for shipment with mating angle iron frames for easy reassembly in the field, plus aluminized steel interior and exterior.
All safety equipment required by IRI, FM and National Fire Protection Association Standard 86 for gas-heated equipment are onboard No. 996, including an 8000 CFM powered forced exhauster for quick purge and cool down, motorized dampers on the intake and exhaust for accelerated cooling, as well as a 10” diameter circular chart recording and programming temperature controller.
