This TF1700 series tube furnace has all the right features to help you churn out perfect results time and again. The furnace is embedded within molybdenum silicide heating elements encased in topshelf Mitsubishi alumina fiber insulation. A double-walled steel internal housing traps all the heat inside. For temperature control, a Japanese Shimaden 40-segment digital controller can get your application within +/- 1°C. Want to monitor or control the action from your PC? It has a RS485 digital communications port and USB adapter. You can even save or export your test results.
Its self-tuning PID control provides optimized thermal process with little overshoot. Need it to be portable? This furnace is compact, lightweight, and easy to carry. It’s also versatile. It can handle multiple atmosphere processes in a single cycle. Built-in ammeter and dual voltmeters offer easy monitoring and troubleshooting. Dual flanges provide better sealing support and a longer tube life. A type B thermocouple also helps ensure its longevity. The furnace also has two important safety features, overheat and power failure protection. Along with our others, this furnace is CE compliant.
Features
- Compact, portable and lightweight design.
- Standard package includes set of stainless steel vacuum sealing flanges with valves and pressure meter.
- Dual flanges support provides better sealing and longer tube life.
- Microprocessor based self-tuning PID control provides optimum thermal process with minimal overshoot.
- Multiple atmosphere processes in a single cycle are possible (ex: binder burn out in air and parts sintering under rough vacuum or inert gas environment.)
- Built-in ammeter and dual voltmeters for easy monitoring and troubleshooting.
- Built-in computer interface.
- Long life type B thermocouple.
Safety
- Overheat protection shuts down the furnace if temperature is outside of acceptable range (refer to controller's manual) or when the thermocouple is broken or malfunctions.
- Power failure protection resumes furnace operation right after the point of failure when power is reestablished.
Warning! NEVER fill furnace with explosive gases, including Hydrogen, Carbon Monoxide and Methane.
