Personalization

Computerized Tool
OTF-1600X-I series furnace is split-able alumina tube furnace with Kanthal GLOBAR SG 1650 grade SiC Heating Elements. The furnace can be installed with 60 or 80mm O.D high-quality alumina tubes along with a pair of smart stainless steel vacuum sealing flanges that can take either a valve/gauge which allows for heating samples under vacuum or flowing gas conditions up to 1600°C. The precision temperature controller can provide 30 segments of heating and cooling steps with +/- 1°C accuracy.

Heating Elements
Temperature Controller
  • FA-YD518P-AG temperature controller is included.
  • Proportional–integral–derivative control (PID control) and auto-tune function
  • 30 segments programmed with ramping, cooling and dwelling steps
  • Built-in over-temperature alarm and thermocouple failure alarm
  • +/- 1 ºC temperature control accuracy
  • Default DB9 / PC communication port
Temperature controller (optional)

  • MTS02-Y Temperature control software kit (for YD518P series controllers) + 15" laptop package is available at the options bar. Click for detailed information about the MTS02-Y software package. 
  • You may upgrade the temperature controller to the Eurotherm 3504 Temperature Controller which is entirely compatible with LabVIEW. This package includes a Eurotherm 3504 programmer, a communication cable (RS485 - USB), and a software CD. Click the pic below to view the full spec of the Eurotherm 3004 temperature controller.
Vacuum Sealing
  • Two stainless steel flanges with the vacuum gauge and valves. 1/4" pipe and KF25 adapters are installed in two ends respectively.
  • For a fast & better vacuum, suggest you use a stainless steel pipe ( click to order at extra cost ), as well as a digital vacuum gauge. 
  •  Two pairs of fibrous ceramic tube blocks are included to block heat radiation from the inside tube. (Ceramic blocks must be fully inserted into the furnace chamber before heating)

    Warnings

    Click here to learn more about the installation of a gas regulator

    • The tube furnaces with alumina tubes are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.02 MPa 
    • Never use a graphite crucible an alumina tube.
    • Attention: For safe operation, a two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on a gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI. Click here to learn about the installation of a gas regulator. 
    • Never heat the furnace while the gas release valve is closed and a positive pressure during the heating; Please open the gas release valve immediately once the chamber pressure has reached over 3 PSI to prevent unforeseeable damages.
    • The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM ( or 200ml/min )
    •  Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up to 1500°C
