OTF1200XSVTC4 is a vertical tube furnace with a separated 4-channel gas flow and precision temperature station, which is designed for testing a small fuel cell ( 20 mm diameter up to 800ºC to develop new generation fuel cell material quickly and cost-effectively.
Flanges & Tubes
( Fuel Cell Fixture)
|
-
Φ20 mm small fuel cell ( customer provided) will be placed between tubes and flanges on the top and bottom ( Pic. left )
- Two tube sets consist of a dual-layer structure (Pic. 1)
- Outside tube: Alumina 20 OD X 16 ID x 260 L (mm) x 2 sets
- Inside tube: Quartz: 14 OD X 10 ID x 300 L (mm) x 2 sets
- Two flanges are connected to the tube sets with ports of the gas inlet and outlet and PTFE wires sealed top (Pic. 2)
- The tube set will be fixed on the frame of the furnace and apply pressure to a fuel cell. (Pic. 3)
- The included high-temperature adhesive will apply the gap between two tubes to ensure gas flow with air-tight. (Pic. 4)
