Carbolite Gero HTRH-GR Graphite Tube Furnaces up to 2600 °C

A graphite tube furnace range with a choice of maximum temperatures; 2200°C, 2400°C or 2600 °C. Models are equipped with a 50mm integral work tube and have a heated length of 260mm.

With the adjustable stand option, furnaces can be used at various angles, ranging from horizontal to vertical.

This range of cold wall tube furnaces is heated by graphite elements and insulated by graphite felt. At higher temperatures above 400 to 600°C graphite is air sensitive and needs to be kept under either an inert gas or vacuum atmosphere. To maintain an oxygen-free environment, the tube furnace is contained within a water-cooled vacuum-tight vessel sealed with rubber O-rings, which needs to be evacuated and purged with inert gas before heating.

The thermal conductivity of graphite felt insulation is very low, making it an excellent material for furnace insulation. The thickness and quality of the insulation materials are specifically chosen depending on the maximum operating temperature of the furnace.

Notes
– Heat rate to 2000 °C approx. 10 °C/min, above 2000 °C lower
– Power supply by 3 phase power with 380-415 Volts with neutral and earth required
– Further to the diameter of the tube furnace the current feed-in connections have an outer diameter of 800 mm
– Inert gas and cooling water supply mandatory
– Maximum continuous operating temperature is 100 °C below the maximum temperature
– Above 2000 °C the wear down of the heating elements grows with raising temperature exponentially
