• In order to obtain accurate temperature inside the tube furnace, you need to perform a temperature calibration before use, please click here to learn how.
• How to set up ceramic tube and vacuum flange for MTI Tube furnace 
• Proper placement of tube blocks
• The tube furnaces with alumina tube are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.02 Mpa
• Never use graphite crucible in an alumina tube.
• The gas flow rate should be limited to < 200 SCCM ( or 200ml/min )
• Vacuum limit definition for all alumina tube furnaces: * Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up to 1500°C
