CO-6500

DOMAILLE ENGINEERING CO-6500 User guide

  • Hello, I'm a chat assistant specializing in documentation. I've reviewed the Domaille Engineering Ferrule Curing Oven's User's Guide. This document provides detailed instructions on operating the CO-6500 and CO-6600 models, including how to use the timer and temperature hold functions, as well as safety precautions. I'm ready to assist with any specific questions you might have about your device.
  • What is the maximum curing temperature?
    How many MT and MT-RJ ferrules can be cured at once?
    What are the two modes of operation?
