Controlled Atmosphere Furnace for Material Processing 1600°C (12x8x8″ 12L)
Overview for High Temperature Atmosphere Furnace
Controlled Atmosphere Furnace provides an environment for various purpose in many heat treatment experiments, providing the controlled temperature and atmosphere specific projects require. The controlled atmosphere ensure to complete tasks that require suitable temperatures. This is the best way to ensure the successful outcome of your project because it is sealed tightly to ensure the proper environment.Programtherm design and produce a variety of controlled atmosphere furnaces based on customer’s needs, and programtherm atmosphere furnace makes your heat treatment more successful.
Main Features
- Tmax 1700°C (in air)
- Dual steel structure, air tight chamber, controlled atmosphere muffle furnace
- Multiple gas inlets and outlets with stainless steel ball valves and mechnical gauge
- Positive pressure up to 0.03Mpa and vacuum up to – 0.09Mpa
- Water circulation device for furnace cooling
- Powerful MoSi2 heaters heating from two sides ensure uniform temperature
- Precise PID controller with progrmmable 30 segments

Application Notes
- However, toxic or explosive gases that may generate from the sample during the heating are not recommended for use with this high temperature muffle furnace without necessary safety controls and supervision.
- Small cracks may appear on the surface of the refractory ceramics over extended use. This is a normal occurrence and the cracks may be repaired with alumina coating.
- Ultimate vacuum level for PA Controlled Atmosphere muffle furnace is around 90000 Pa with hose barb connections. Please keep in mind that our PA atmosphere furnaces are NOT designed to be vacuum furnaces, the vacuuming part is mainly for users to pre-vac the chamber, before putting in inert or other protective gases, if you have special request on vacuum level, please order our professional vacuum furnaces
