A fixed oven, no process running through it, item goes in for period of time then comes out, right?
I'd probably lean toward CO2 for that with rate compensation style heat detection. It gives a little better flexibility than a sprinkler. One issue to deal with is runaway temps on these kinds of process ovens. What could be the upset maximum temperature if system controls failed? You need to know that before selecting any kind of heat detection device. Craig L.

Why would you need to protect an oven? What kind of oven? What has to heated to 500 degrees that be in a contained vessel? Isn't this an enclosed space where the fire would be more than less controlled by the consumption of oxygen? Presumably the oven itself isn't fuel so what's in it that;'s so hazardous? I really can't figure this one out.
