Furnace Element Resistance Monitors

When furnace elements fail during process, the entire lot is scrapped or in need of rework. This disruptive and costly situation is entirely preventable by virtue of our realtime model based element monitors.

The behavior of a furnace element prior to failure has some unique resistance fingerprints. InControl manufactures an industry proven early warning solution to detect such. Our turnkey sensors constantly monitor element behavior and warn of detectable abnormalities.

Our algorithm understands and monitors for unhealthy resistance signatures associated with:
• Heating element degradation
• Vertical Furnace wire shorts
• Horizontal Furnace sag
• SCR Failures
• Faulty wiring and loose connections
• Transformer degradation
• Input power fluctuation

Our proven algorithms provide simple yellow and red alert alarm status to our users. We also provide raw data for those user who desire in house number crunching and data review.

No more costly run to fail scrap events. No more pulling perfectly good elements because of a timed PM. Instead, consider the more scientific approach that will pay for itself in just one single incident.

These diffusion furnace element sensor kits are suitable for horizontal and vertical furnaces.
