3、ral-purpose air ovens ordinarily used in testingoperations,which have a testing chamber up to 0.6 m3(25 ft3)in volume.It is applicable to gravity-convection ovens de-signed to operate over all or part of the temperature range from20 C above ambient temperature to 200 C and to forced-ventilation oven
4、s designed to operate over all or part of thetemperature range from 20 C above ambient temperature to500 C.NOTE1Ovens are designed for maximum operating temperatures ofabout 200 C,300 C,and 500 C,the thermal insulation and cost of theoven being dependent on the maximum temperature required.1.2 This
