6. Cool down period




Insert the metal disc into the retort


✓ -:- This disc is usually made of stainless steel or titanium and it can withstand the

intense heat of the retort.

It must have a unique identification number which is assigned only to the deceased person

and follows the body / cremated remains throughout the entire process including being

placed in the urn or temporary container with the cremated remains. This could be

accomplished after the deceased is placed in the retort as well.




purge the system


✓ -:- Some retorts require that crematory to run a purge especially before the first

cremation of the day. The purge will remove any gases or particulates that are

remaining in the retort from prior cremations.

Preheat retort


✓ -:- The preheat process utilizes the afterburner and is necessary to ensure that the

temperature in the secondary chamber is high enough to combust the gases and

particulates released from the primary chamber during cremation. Notice the

afterburner is the smaller flame in the back and near the bottom of the crematory.




This temperature is different based upon different manufacturers but is generally between

1400 and 1800 degrees Fahrenheit for most cremators, though some older ones will need to

remain between 1200 and 1600 degrees.




load body into retort


✓ -:- 1. To load the body into the retort, raise the door and engage the safety pins

that prevent the door from falling. Notice the pins on the image in the Lesson

folder.

2. Place a cardboard cylinder / roller that will aid the cremation container in being

positioned within the primary chamber.




Most crematories also utilizes a loading table which is a:


✓ -:- hydraulic lift that raises the cremation container high enough to set on the

portal of entry into the primary chamber
