Split-Type Tube Furnaces for Horizontal and Vertical Operation up to 1300 °C

By adding different gas supply packages, you can work in a protective gas atmosphere, with gases or in a vacuum.

The tube furnaces of series RS .. can be used for horizontal and with optional frame for vertical operation. The split-type design makes it easy to change the working tube. It allows for a comfortable exchange of various working tubes (e.g. working tubes made of different materials).

Using a wide range of accessories, these professional tube furnaces can be optimally tailored for your process. By adding different gas supply packages, you can work in a protective gas atmosphere, with gases or in a vacuum. In addition to the convenient standard controllers, modern PLC controls can also be used to control the process.

Standard Equipment

Tmax 1100 °C or 1300 °C
Heated length from 250 mm to 1000 mm
Maximum outer tube diameter up to 170 mm
Single-zoned design
Dual shell ventilated housing made of textured stainless steel sheets for low surface temperature and high stability
Exclusive use of insulation materials without categorization according to EC Regulation No 1272/2008 (CLP). This explicitly means that alumino silicate wool, also known as “refractory ceramic fiber” (RCF), which is classified and possibly carcinogenic, is not used.
Tabletop model, mounted horizontally on an external switchboard including controller
2 m connecting cable in a protective metal conduit
Split-type design for simple insertion of the working tube (opening temperature < 180 °C)
Ceramic working tube C 530 including two fiber plugs for operation under air
Thermocouple type N (1100 °C) or type S (1300 °C)
Solid state relays provide for lownoise operation
Heating elements on support tubes provide for free radiation
Controller with touch operation C550 (10 programs with each 20 segments)
Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
NTLog Basic for Nabertherm controller: recording of process data with USB-flash drive

Additional Equipment

Frame for converting the furnace to vertical operation
Tube adapter shells for the use of tubes with different diameters
Charge control with temperature measurement in the working tube
Three-zone control for optimization of temperature uniformity
Cooling systems for accelerated cooling of the working tube and charge
Gas supply systems 1,15 or 2 for non-flammable process gas operation
Vacuum package to evacuate the working tube
Process control and documentation via VCD software package for monitoring, documentation and control
