Carbolite VST 12/400 Vertical Split Tube Furnace heated length 400mm, supplied without work tube, maximum outer diameter 110mm.
Carbolite Gero VST 12/400 is a single zone bench mounted furnace supplied with stand for vertical use only. The furnace opens with hinges so it can be placed around an object or have a work tube placed inside, removing insertion by the end bores as with a standard furnace. This allows larger tubes or vessels to be accommodated with flanges or end fittings and makes changing work tubes over easier. Adaptors allows the flexibility of accepting tubes lower than the maximum overall diameter of 110mm into the furnace.
The furnace heats using free wire radiating elements inside the furnace body, this and the use of a separate work tube reduces the probability of element damage. Supplied as above with separate control box connected by 2 metre conduit. Controller supplied is 301 digital PID allowing single ramp and process timer. Can be changed to allow 8 or 20 ramps with storage.
Maximum temperature is 1200C, with a continuous operating temperature of 1100C. Heat up time is 45 minutes. Maximum power consumption is 2000 watts.
Vacuum formed insulation assists uniformity giving fast heating and cooling.
