KSL-1700X-O2 is an atmosphere-controlled box furnace designed for materials sintering under air, 100% oxygen, and inert atmosphere. The furnace consists of high-quality alumina fiber bricks and MoSi2 heating elements with a heating chamber of 8"x 8"x8". It is an ideal tool for preparing high purity oxide ceramic materials, especially for high Ni battery cathode materials.

Power
|
- AC 208 - 240V single phase, 50/ 60 Hz, 50 A
- 7.5 KW
- The power cable is included without a plug.
|
Heating Elements
|
- 6 sets of MoSi2 heating elements are built-in and replaceable
- Working temperature range: 600°C - 1700°C in air or oxygen
- Note: the heating elements also can be used under inert gas at 1000oC - 1600 oC)
- The furnace is not a high vacuum furnace. The vacuum level is about 500 torr at high temperature
|

Working Temperature
|
- Air and oxygen 800 - 1600°C
- Nitrogen/Argon depending on the dew point.
- Max. 1700°C(<60min)
- Accuracy: +/- 2°C
- Heating Rate: 5°C / min
- Thermocouple: dual B type T/C for control and monitor alarm separately
|
|
Control Panel
|
- Built-in PC for controlling temperature and pressure
- Temperature Control:
- Eurotherm 3000 controllers with a resolution of 0.1 °C
- 24 segments programmable
- Protection for over-temperature and current, as well as the thermal couple, broke
- A secondary temperature controller is built-in for extra over-temperature protection.
-
Pressure Control:
- Inert gas Purging via manually or an automatic mode
- Constand pressure during heating
- High and Low-pressure protection
- The pressure controllable range: -0.06 to 0.03Mpa.
- The pressure sensor and pressure controller are installed to control the set pressure constant.
- The pressure control can be used to perform the following functions:
- Safety Alarm System:
- Over-temperature protection
- Over-pressure and lower pressure alert
- Low water flow alert
- Data Collection
- Recording temperature profile
- Recording pressure profile
- All data is saved to the hard disc of the PC
- Local WIFI operation at a remote distance is available upon request
|
Vacuum pump & Gas Flow Control
|
- Two large flow meters are installed on the front panel of the furnace for purging via inert gas and filling oxygen gases
- One vacuum pump is included to enhance purging and keep the chamber below 760 torr
- Low vacuum 10-1 torr due to fibrous alumina insulation material. Using 5% H2 + Ar will improve oxidation during heating. For oxygen-sensitive material, please use a hydrogen furnace
|
Water Cooling
|
A 58L/min recirculating water cooling is required to cool the furnace sealing flange and chamber case.
