Notes:
Protetive atmospheres are used in powder metallurgy to prevent oxidation and to reduceoxides, to control carbon contents of iron and iron alloys, and to flush volatilized lubrificants fromthe furnace. Another important function of the atmosphere during sintering is to burn and removethe hydrocarbon lubrificants used to compact the powdered metal. However, one of the mostimportant services that the Air Products "industrial gas company" can provide to its heat treatcustomers is assistance in troubleshooting their furnace(s) when there are problems.To be able to troubleshoot a furnace, it is important to know what the typical problems are thatarise, what causes them and how to fix or minimize to problem.This work should aid in finding the source of the problem with analysis equipment, and, by usingyour knowledge of the furnace and the process, solve the problem.Summarizing, (1) ensure system integrity, (2) Know the required safety interlocks, and (3) Verifytheir operation
