Replacement & Spare Parts

Replacement & Spare Parts

We carry a variety of spare parts for your needs. We will also manufacture replacement parts per your specification.

Custom Designed & Engineered

Our in-house engineering and manufacturing allows Upton to custom design furnaces and systems to a customers process and specification requirements, rather than attempting to provide to you standard pre-design equipment, as some of our competitors would attempt to do. Follow-up technical services are available for all Upton thermal process systems.

Our Engineered Thermal Solutions will allow for flexibility in your manufacturing productivity.

Chloride Contaminant Removal

The Upton clam type desludging unit is a mechanism designed to allow for a safe method of removing built-up oxides and contaminant materials from the bottom of high temperature ceramic salt bath furnaces. Excessive build up of materials can affect furnace temperature recovery and potentially damage the furnace.

Clam Shell Unit Operation

The clam-like jaws of the unit are designed to collect and capture the contaminant materials for removal from the furnace. This mechanism can be designed for operation from a monorail type service hoist or fork truck boom, or from the service hoist assembly supplied with our Upton Automatic Hoist Systems.

All units are supplied complete with dump stand framework and portable sludge collection tray designed for off-line storage during production operation.

Minimized Maintenance Requirements

The Upton mechanized system removes solid materials from the furnace while minimizing maintenance and associated equipment down-time.

Scott Connected Transformers

Scott Connected Transformers

Water or Air Cooled Designs in Single or Three Phase Operation

Scott Connected TransformersUpton offers both water cooled and air cooled transformer designs with duty cycle rating of 100%. The combination of a stacked steel core and bolted casing allow for disassembly and repair of an Upton transformer as opposed to total replacement requirements for most standard sealed units. The individual Upton Main & Teaser transformer design in Scott connection can eliminate the complete shut-down of a furnace while waiting for the repair or replacement of three phase combined units.

Custom Engineered Power in Small Packages

Upton transformers are specifically designed to suit any salt bath furnace application. Multiple tap secondaries can be engineered with for wide range of voltages and are available with rotary type tap changing switches. Thermostatic high limit protection is a standard for all Upton transformers.

Specialty Transformers

Upton engineers specialty transformers including auto type, series/parallel, and main/teaser combination type units which are designed for use as either a main or teaser unit based on primary wiring configuration. This combination unit eliminates the need to stock multiple transformers as back-up spares.

Water or Air Cooled, Custom Designed and Built

Upton offers both water and air cooled designs to suit your facility requirements. All Upton transformers are 100% duty rated, designed for maximum heat dissipation for extended life.

Upton Transformer Flexibility

Single phase transformers can be wired so that any subsequent failure of one section will not cripple your entire manufacturing operations. Upton can custom design power packages to suit any salt bath furnace application in single, three phase delta or wye, or three phase to single phase Scott type connection. All transformers are designed and manufactured in our facilities at Upton, allowing for repair or replacement transformers with minimal lead times which translates to limited loss of customer production.
