The AAF ashing furnace range is designed specifically to provide optimum ashing conditions to ensure complete combustion of the sample.
The AAF 11/3 & AAF 11/7 ashing furnaces provide a continuous flow of preheated air through the chamber, and are designed to comply with ISO 1171:2010, ASTM D3174-04: 2010 and ASTM D4422.
Standard features
- 1100 °C maximum operating temperatures
- Programmable EPC3016P1 controller
- Ideal for ashing foods, plastics, coal & other hydrocarbon materials
- Designed to comply with ISO 1171:2010, ASTM D3174-04:2010 and ASTM D4422
- Wire elements are protected from chemical & mechanical damage by a hard wearing alumina based liner
- 4 sided heating (2 sides, roof & hearth)
- Air inlet & tall chimney give airflow of 4 to 5 changes per minute
- Low chamber height holds airflow close to samples for optimum combustion
- Powerful elements with graded winding compensate for heat loss due to high airflow
- Preheating of air before it enters the chamber gives excellent uniformity
- Sample tray and loading handle
- Soft closing door protects the thermal insulation
Options (specify these at time of order)
- A range of sophisticated digital controllers, multisegment programmers and data loggers with digital communication options is available - more information about controllers
- Over-temperature protection (recommended to protect valuable contents & for unattended operation)
- 2 phase electrical supply for AAF 11/7

Cement Testing for Compliance
The compliance of cement with standards such as EN 197 / ASTM C 150 is a quality requirement. Quality assurance of the raw materials used in calcination and also during the clinker production is necessary. Carbolite Gero offers different furnaces that help to guarantee quality requirements are met during the production cycle.
