CCQ Furnace Creation
Instructions
- Please refer to the general directions for all furnaces located here. Use these directions when instructed below.
- Bending the Leads:
- Make a sharp 90-degree bend in the leads 1/16 inch above the back surface, so the leads point away from the center of the furnace.
- Make a second bend so the leads run along the cylinder about 1/16 inch above the surface.
- Clipping and Insulating the Leads:
- Clip the leads to length using the furnace lead sizer (TL-FLS).
- Insulate the leads with fish-spine beads.
- Terminate each lead with a Molex male pin.
- For CCQ: Clip leads approximately 57 mm from the bend; use 12 beads per lead.
- Potting Cement Application:
- Refer to steps 2 and 3 in CFF preparation
- Refer to step 6 through 10 in CFF preparation
- For CCQ: Use about 4 grams of potting cement.
- Ensuring Proper Alignment:
- If the furnace does not allow the inlet port furnace aligner tool (TL-IP-FA) to freely pass in and out, use a 1/2" threaded rod.
- Spin the bit and gently remove the material causing the obstruction.
- Ensure the furnace aligner can pass through the hole unassisted.
