furnace classification means that the furnace is able to stay closer to its target temperature

without variation.

Instrumentation Type
In addition to classification, AMS 2750 also uses Instrumentation Type to determine a furnace’s
mandatory testing schedule. Instrumentation type can be look at as the number of sensors
used for control/recording in a furnace. All of these sensors, controls, and recording systems
have strict accuracy requirements and calibration intervals. The five instrumentation types (A-
E) are defined clearly within the specification (see figure 3 for a sample).

Figure 3 - Instrumentation Type Descriptions

Testing Intervals
Put together, furnace classification and instrument type clearly determine the testing schedule
necessary for your furnace in order to maintain certification. So, for example (See Fig. 4) a
Class 2 Furnace with Instrumentation Type B is required to undergo a TUS on a monthly basis,
whereas a Class 5 Furnace with Instrumentation Type B only requires a quarterly TUS.
