Abstract
A device for controlling the rate at which air is exhausted from a textile drying oven including means for withdrawing gas from the interior of the oven, a heater for heating the withdrawn gas, a catalyst bed for combusting the heated gas, a differential thermocouple for measuring the difference in the temperature between the gas entering the catalyst bed and the gas leaving the catalyst bed and means for varying the rate of exhaust from the oven in response to variations in the temperature difference across the catalyst bed.
