IHEA will present a one-day seminar that will focus on the recent changes to NFPA 86 Standard for Ovens and Furnaces. The seminar will be held Tuesday, May 23, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill., in conjunction with the Process Heating & Cooling Show that follows on May 24-25.

This truck-in oven complies with the requirements for NFPA 86 Class A low oxygen ovens.

IHEA’s Combustion Seminar and Safety Standards and Codes Seminar will be held concurrently November 9-10 at the InterContinental Hotel Cleveland. The fall seminars include a joint tabletop exhibition and reception November 9. Registration is still open for the events.

Registration is open for two Industrial Heating Equipment Association’s seminars. The combustion seminar and the safety standards and codes seminar will be held concurrently November 9-10 at the InterContinental Hotel Cleveland. The fall seminars include a joint tabletop exhibition and reception November 9. 

Process heating with fuel-fired burners is the most effective and cost-efficient method of heating. Personnel safety, production equipment protection and maintaining production schedules are all best served by understanding safety requirements. 

With the three new webinars we have planned for October, you can gain valuable knowledge from the comfort of your office chair — or even your couch. What’s better than that?

Natural gas combustion systems, when combined with human error, can lead to disastrous consequences and millions of dollars’ worth of property damage. 

The Industrial Heating Equipment Association is hosting a one-day seminar that will highlight changes to NFPA 86. Held May 14 at the Fabricators and Manufacturers Association in Elgin, Ill., the class is an overview for those who are already familiar with the standard but want to understand the recent updates.

Many industrial processors understand the importance of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and compliance with their various codes. Some even know the difference between the four oven classifications as defined by NFPA 86 Standards for Ovens and Furnaces.

A 950°F (510°C) belt conveyor oven designed and built by Grieve is being used by a manufacturer for heat treating springs. The unit has 81,600 Btu/hr installed in a modulating infrared natural gas burner to heat the oven chamber, while a 250-CFM, ⅓-hp recirculating blower provides vertical downward airflow to the workload.
