Flanges and Gas Inlet
|
- A set of SS304 flanges are included, KF-25 gas outlet port
- Vacuum level: 10-2 torr using a mechanical pump, 10-5 torr using a molecular pump (pump is not included)
- Max withstand pressure for the standard flange included is 0.3 Mpa. Customization (up to 5 Mpa) is available at an extra cost
|
Hydrogen Detector System (included) |
- Two Gas Detector is Integrated into the system. One is installed on the furnace to monitor potential gas leakage. The other one is portable which can be used to check other ports
- Working Temperature Range: -20ºC to +60ºC

|
- Tube furnaces with alumina tubes are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.12 atm (absolute pressure)
- The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM for reducing thermal shocks to the tube
- Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator.
- Vacuum limit definition for all quartz tube furnaces: up to 1000°
