|
| activate, replace the mercury contactor. Also | |
|
| check each contactor for high voltage input and | |
|
| output. |
|
| Heating element(s) | Check the Amp draw on each power leg for | |
|
| proper load. Check the specification plate for | |
|
| rating information. If the amp draw is high or low, | |
|
| check the individual elements for opens, shorts | |
|
| and proper resistance. | |
|
| WITH POWER OFF: To check resistance of the | |
|
| elements, remove all leads from the elements | |
|
| and use a digital multimeter. | |
|
| The element resistance is should be as follows: | |
|
| 208V – 27 ohms | |
|
| 240V – 36 ohms | |
|
| Replace heating elements as needed. | |
Oven heats with switch off | Mercury contactor | The mercury contactor has probably failed in the | |
|
| closed position. If there is no voltage to the | |
|
| operating coil, but there is high voltage at the | |
|
| contactor output, replace the mercury contactor. | |
Intermittent heating | Thermal/overload of motor | The main fan motor is equipped with internal | |
|
| thermal protection and will cease to operate if | |
|
| overheating occurs. As the motor overheats and | |
|
| then cools, this will cause the oven to cycle on | |
|
| and off intermittently. Improper ventilation or lack | |
|
| of preventive maintenance may cause this. Also, | |
|
| most of the problems listed under “Oven will not | |
|
| heat” can cause intermittent failure. | |
Conveyor will not run | Power supply | Check circuit breakers, reset if required. Check | |
|
| power plug to be sure it is firmly in receptacle. | |
|
| Measure incoming power, call power co. if | |
|
| needed. |
|
| Fuse, 10 Amp | Check, replace if necessary. | |
| Fuse holder | Check, replace if necessary. | |
| Check for voltage on both sides of switch. | ||
|
| Terminals are normally closed. If open, reset and | |
|
| test oven for proper operation. If thermostat will | |
|
| not hold, and control box temperature is not | |
|
| exceeding 140°F (60°C), replace thermostat. | |
| Power switch | Check continuity between switch terminals. | |
|
| Replace switch as needed. | |
| Control transformer | Check for supply voltage to the primary of the | |
|
| control transformer. If no voltage is present, trace | |
|
| wiring back to the oven power relay. If voltage is | |
|
| present, check for 24 VAC at the transformer | |
|
| secondary. If there is primary voltage but no | |
|
| secondary voltage, replace control transformer. | |
| Conveyor motor | Check for supply voltage to the conveyor motor. | |
|
| If no voltage is present, trace wiring back to the | |
|
| primary of the control transformer. If voltage is | |
|
| present and the motor will not run, check the | |
|
| motor windings for opens or shorts. | |
|
| WITH POWER OFF: Check the motor windings | |
|
| as follows: | 240Ω approx. |
|
| Grey to black - | |
|
| Grey to tan - | 240Ω approx. |
|
| Tan to black - | 480Ω approx. |
|
| If any of the above fails, replace conveyor motor. | |
| Capacitor, conveyor motor | Check for shorts or grounds. Replace capacitor | |
|
| as needed. |
|
|
| WARNING: Capacitor has a stored charge, |
