Ipsen, Cherry Valley, Ill., reports that its “Finding Leaks in Your Vacuum Furnace” blog series takes a close look at how to determine whether the furnace or the pumping system is the root cause of vacuum-related issues. For example, some people might immediately assume something is wrong with the furnace when it begins to present signs of outgassing, dirty parts, performance issues, etc.
While it’s possible that the furnace could be the source of the problem, it is important to avoid wasting valuable time going through all the steps of leak checking the furnace only to realize that actually something is wrong with the pumping system. Therefore, Ipsen experts outlined a few simple steps for determining whether the furnace or the pumping system is the guilty party in their newest “Finding Leaks in Your Vacuum Furnace” blog post; find out what these steps are at http://bit.ly/LeakCheck-10.
