Usually the bearings lock up. I keep one spare blower on hand and change it out when I have one go bad, then take the bad one apart and change the bearings. The bearings are about $4.00 per set and are pretty common. Not too hard to find. I am using

We use the Tribol 930/100 Synthetic oil. Also, check the drive motor chain on the output end of the oven. I have seen the set screws back out of the drive gears, and it will kind of pop at times while running.

I agree with JAX. We run four Omniflow 7 ovens for leaded and lead free products. The process window is tighter with these than that of a 10 zone oven. It takes a little more time and work to get the profile dialed in with less zones.

Hi Boys and Girls, I've been given the "task" to turn off the nitrogen in our reflow ovens. I am using the BTU, TRS series ovens, each with eight zones. Also, I have a couple of new BT Paragon ovens with 10 zones. We currently are running Qualite

We use both the ct930 and 1040, we are not impressed, we ended up retrofitting due to excessive heat being produced at the circuit breaker side of oven, Ended up installing several door fans to reduce the heat. also the oven was supposed to be able t

SR. Tech: I have worked with Omniflo 7 and 10 ovens for many years. I purchased several 10 zone ovens in '98 when I worked for Ericsson. Here are some of my experinces with Electrovert Omniflo ovens; Yes, you can expect to run the conveyor speed a
