High temperature 1700°C & 1800°C Bottom loading (elevator hearth) furnaces (BLF)

• High temperature furnaces with maximum operating temperatures of 1700°C & 1800°C
• 1700°C - capacities of 3, 8, & 21 litres
• 1800°C - capacities of 3 & 8 litres
• Heated by MoSi2 elements positioned symetrically around the chamber walls, which provide excellent thermal uniformity
• Electrically operated elevator hearth ensures operator safety and smooth loading and unloading of delicate samples
• Choice of PID controller or programmers
• Options specific to this range include, adaption to allow inert gas atmosphere, by fitting an inverted crucible and providing a gas inlet through the hearth
• Options also include a radiation shutter, and hearth safety cage
• Applications in the ceramics industry include disintegration, testing and analysis of advanced ceramic samples, glass melting, refractory porosity tests, long term high temperature tests and firing & sintering of ceramic samples
• Applications in the semi-conductor industry include annealing silicon, silicon carbide & nitride samples and solid state synthesis
• The model shown left has a 3 litre capacity and is bench mounted - all other models are floor standing
