Model STF54233

Heavy duty 1500°C tube furnaces are available in single and three zone models, designed for high temperature metallurgical, ceramic, chemical and electronic research. Furnaces use independent digital temperature control modules (ordered separately) which are available in standard or programmable varieties with an optional communications port.

General Features

• Double-end silicon carbide heating elements mounted above and below the chamber
• Heating elements cross the chamber at right angles with compressed spacing at ends to offset heat loss from end of process tube
• Removable side panels for easy installation and electrical connection, simplified heating element replacement and adjustment
• High temperature insulation with insulated end vestibules for better uniformity and energy efficiency
• Long life, fast response type R thermocouples with 10' compensated lead wire and polarized plug

Three Zone Models

• Three independent power circuits (zones) with independent thermocouples for control references
• Full adjustment of each zone over entire operating range to 1500°C
• Center zone uniformity achieved and operating length maximized through adjustable profiling of end zones by independent controller
• Controlled temperature uniformity achieved with independent setpoint of end zones higher or lower than center zone
