Time:2024-07-15
  
The following are the operating procedures and precautions for the muffle furnace:

**Operating procedures:**

1. Preparation before starting
- Check whether the power connection of the muffle furnace is normal and ensure good grounding.
- Check whether the inside of the furnace is clean and free of debris.
- According to the experimental requirements, choose a suitable crucible or container to place the sample.

2. Sample loading
- Wear protective gloves and carefully place the sample to be processed into the crucible or container, and then put it into the furnace. Pay attention to the reasonable placement of the sample to avoid contact with the furnace wall.

3. Set parameters
- Turn on the power and set the required heating temperature, heating rate and insulation time through the control panel.

4. Start operation
- After confirming that the parameter settings are correct, start the muffle furnace to start heating.

5. Operation monitoring
- During the heating process, regularly observe the temperature display to ensure that the temperature rises according to the set value. If there is any abnormality, stop in time.

6. Complete the process
- After reaching the set insulation time, the muffle furnace will automatically stop heating or cool down according to the program.

7. Sampling
- Wait until the temperature in the furnace drops to a safe range (usually below 100℃), and take out the sample wearing protective gloves.

8. Shutdown
- Turn off the power, clean the furnace, and organize the surrounding tools and items.


**Precautions:**

1. Safety protection
- Protective gloves, goggles and other protective equipment must be worn during operation.
- It is strictly forbidden to touch the furnace body when the muffle furnace is running to avoid burns.

2. Sample requirements
- Samples and containers for samples should be resistant to high temperatures and not react with furnace materials.
- Volatile, flammable and explosive samples are strictly prohibited from being placed in the muffle furnace.

3. Temperature control
- Set the temperature strictly according to the sample processing requirements and do not exceed the rated temperature of the muffle furnace.
- The heating rate should not be too fast to avoid affecting the performance of the sample and equipment.

4. Equipment maintenance
- Regularly check the working status of heating elements, thermocouples and other components, and replace them in time if damaged.
- Keep the furnace clean to prevent debris from affecting the heating effect and damaging the equipment.

5. Power supply and environment
- Ensure that the power supply is stable to avoid voltage fluctuations that may damage the equipment.
- The muffle furnace should be placed in a well-ventilated, dry environment, away from flammable and explosive items.

6. Emergency handling
- In the event of equipment failure or emergency, the power supply should be cut off immediately and appropriate emergency measures should be taken.

7. Training and operating qualifications
- Operators should receive professional training and be familiar with the operation and maintenance methods of the equipment. Untrained personnel are not allowed to operate without authorization.
