Carbolite Gero GSM 11/8 Ashing furnace has a chamber of 8-litre capacity, made from fused quartz material to avoid the presence of ceramic dust generated by materials normally used to make a furnace chamber. Allowing use with certain work that maybe sensitive to contamination from the presence of Alumina or Silica dust (Al2O3 and SiO2). The fused quartz muffle also protects the heating elements, containing aggressive atmospheres, for example sulphuric, nitric and hydrochloric acids. The design also retains gas better if fitted with gas inlet.
The GSM 11/8 has chamber dimensions of H 120 x W 175 x D 345 mm with a heat-up time of 70 minutes. Heating is provided from all walls, both sides, top and bottom. Maximum power is 2950 watts. Maximum temperature is 1100°C; however, for continuous operation, the furnace should be used at 1000°C. The furnace has a PID 301 controller with timing and one set rate to the desired temperature, which can be upgraded to 8 or 20 segment programmable, with communication and storage options.
