I have a project that requires a specially shaped oven. I wish to prototype this oven (for trial use) from typical galvanized sheet metal HVAC components, due to the convenience of off the shelf fittings. The internal operating temperature will be 615 degrees F, for 25 minute cycles followed by full cool-down, five cycles per day, one day per week, in a moderately ventilated facility.
Typical material safety data sheets indicate a danger of fumes emanating from galvanized metal if the melting temperature of the coating is reached (typically 800 degrees F).
My question is, is this enough of a safety margin in temperature difference in order to ensure that no potentially dangerous fuming from the coating occurs?
