Common Faults and Solutions of Continuous Heat Treatment Furnaces

Dec. 22, 2025

Failure

Reason

Solution

 

 








The workpiece surface is not bright

The new equipment has just been turned on and its surface is gray

Not enough holding time, too many impurities

Run the empty furnace several times

Use clean waste to remove impurities from the furnace

The transmission speed is too fast, the surface is yellow

Reduce transfer speed

Low temperature

Raise the temperature appropriately

The workpiece loading density is high

Reduce workpiece loading density

Air flow is small or unstable

Increase the air flow or increase the inlet and outlet wind protection

Ammonia decomposition furnace operating temperature is low,

Catalytic cracking is not good

Greenish appearance

Increase the operating temperature of ammonia decomposition furnace

 

Cracking tank catalyst aging

Replace the catalyst in the cracking furnace

 

Air leakage at the furnace tube or the connection between the furnace tube and the water jacket

Strengthen the seal or replace the furnace tube

Furnace clogging

Work placement is too high or too wide

Decrease display height or width

Furnace tube/tank vertical deformation

Flatten the bottom plate of the furnace and the top of the furnace tube

The steel belt is too long

Adjust the tension device in time

Furnace tube / pot lateral deformation

Furnace tube/pot replacement

 

 





The heating zone has not current

 

Over temperature alarm

Increase the set temperature (during heating up)

Thermal inertia overtemperature often occurs when the temperature rises

Replace thermocouple

SCR damage

Replace Power Regulator

Blown fuse

Replace fuse core

Thyristor does not conduct

Replace Power Regulator

The thyristor cannot be triggered

Replace Power Regulator

Temperature control meter, no output signal

Replace Power Regulator

Poor line contact

Check all connections in the heating circuit

Heating wire break

Replace heating wire

Furnace blast/flameout

The inlet and outlet enter the air/products run too fast, the air cannot be discharged

The inlet and outlet to prevent air from entering / product running speed slowed down
