GSL-1600X-FS3KW is a horizontal tube furnace with a 3KW programmable AC power source designed for exploring the electrical-assisted sintering for ceramic materials. The tube furnace comes with an 80mm OD alumina tube and a sliding sample fixture, which can preheat sample up to 1600°C. The ceramic sample holder with platinum wires allows to pass current up to 208 V, 15 A. 

SPECIFICATIONS:

Power
  • 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 5.2 KVA for the tube furnace 
  • 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 3 KVA for the programmable separated power supply. 

Tube Furnace

  • Working temperature: 1600°C continuous and 1700°C Max.
  • Heating Zone length: 18" ( 457 mm )
  • Constant temperature zone: 6" ( 150 mm) within +/- 3°C
  • One pcs of High purity Alumina tube with dimension: 2 3/8"x 40"(60OD x 54IDx 1000mm L is included 
  • The alumina tube is consumable and no warranty covered. Pls click the picture to order spare

Temperature Control


  • PID automatic control via solid-state relay with 30 steps programmable and +/-1°C accuracy
  • Built-in Over Temperature and Thermocouple Failure Protection
  • B-type thermal couple
  • Optional: Upgrade the controller to the Eurotherm 3000 Series Temperature Controller with +/-0.1ºC accuracy. This package includes a communication cable (RS485- USB) and software. 

Vacuum Sealing Flanges
& Sample Fixture

 
Vacuum Flanges are made of stainless steel which can reach the vacuum to 10-2 torr by mechanical pump.
Left Side Flange:
  • 30 mm dia. quartz observation window
  •  Needle valve with 1/4 NSP connector
Right Side Flange
  • KF25 vacuum port to connect to a vacuum pump
  • Two electric wires feedthrough. Wires are made of Ø1 mm platinum 
  • Needle valve with mechanical vacuum gauge.
  • The sample fixture is built-in in the inside flange.
  • This flange is slidable to make sample loading easy.

Programmable AC Power Source
The programmable AC power source is to connect the electric wire at the feedthrough at the right side flange. After pre-heating, AC power will pass a voltage and current to produce electric field, which results in a sample sintered in high density. The power parameters can be set via included laptop. Power source specifications ae as the below
  • Input Voltage: AC220V±10%, 50/60Hz single phase
  • Power Capacity: 3000 W Max.
  • Output Voltage 20V - 208 VAC adjustable with ≤1% stability
  • Protection: Overload, over-temperature, and short circus
 
Optional Parts
  • Anti-Corrosive digital Gauge up to 10E-5 torr is optional for CVD application (Pic 3)
  • You may order a multi-channel gas delivery system for DVD or CVD operation ( Pic 4)

Compliance
  • CE Certified
  • NRTL (UL61010) or CSA certification is available upon request at extra cost.( pls click marks below to learn details
