Personalization

Upgrade to Eurotherm 3000 series
OTF-1700X-UL is UL/TUV standard split-able alumina tube furnaces with MoSi2 Heating Elements. The furnace can accommodate 60mm O.D high-quality alumina tubes along with a pair of smart stainless steel vacuum sealing flanges that features needle valves and vacuum gauge. Such configuration allows sample heat treatment under vacuum or flowing gas conditions up to 1700°C. The precise temperature controller can provide 30 segments of heating and cool with +/- 1°C accuracy.  

SPECIFICATIONS

Temperature Controller


Temperature controller interface

The optional PC control module
Standard temperature controller:
  • 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 (PC control module and software are sold separately. 
Optional:  
  • MTS-02 PC control module (also including cable and software) is an add-on option for PC control
    • It is recommended to purchase the module together with the furnace. We install and test it before shipping
    • It is recommended to purchase the laptop (with software pre-installed) from us to avoid software confliction
    • Please note the module is not sold solely in the future
  • Eurotherm 3000 Temperature Controller is optional for an additional $950 including installation and testing. This package also includes the communication cable (RS485 - USB) and software CD. Click here to view the full spec
Vacuum Sealing
  • Two stainless steel flanges with vacuum gauge and valves. 1/4" pipe and KF25 adapters are installed in two ends respectively.
  • For a fast & better vacuum, suggest you use stainless steel pipe ( click to order at extra cost ), as well as digital vacuum gauge. 
  • Two pairs of fibrous ceramic tube blocks are included for blocking heat radiation from the inside tube. (Ceramic blocks must be fully inserted into the furnace chamber before heating)
                            
    Vacuum Levels

    Application Notes
    Warnings

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

    • NEVER open the furnace lid at temperature >100°C, doing so may thermal shock the processing tube and cause cracks. 
    • The tube furnaces with alumina tube are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.02 MPa
    • Never use graphite crucible in the alumina tube.
    • Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on gas cylinder to limit the-the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator. 
    • Never heat the furnace while the gas release valve is closed and a positive pressure condition exists within the furnace chamber. The pressure gauge must be used to closely monitor the chamber condition at all times during the heating process; 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 pressure only is safely used up to 1500°C for alumina tube
