OTF-1200X-VT-III-50 is a Three Heating ZoneSplit Vertical Tube Furnace with a vacuum-sealed 50 mm diameter quartz tube. It can achieve faster sample heating and quenching in vacuum or gas flow and use for PVD, CSS or CVD coating. Three precision temperature controllers provide 30 segments heating and cooling program with +/- 1°C accuracy independently. The vertical tube furnace is installed in a mobile cart for easy moving.

Application Note
( We may help you to build customized flange to meet your application at extra cost )
|
-
- Please click the picture below to learn how to quench sample in gas flow and vacuum
- Approach#1: Traditional wire cut and free-falling ( Fig. 1 & 2 )
- Approach#2: Electromagnetic release and free-falling. (Fig 3 & 4 )
- The furnace can be modified into an HPCVD ( hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition ) furnace via DIY a sample susceptor ( click picture below-left to see how )
- The furnace can be used for brazing of two flat < 1" diameter sample via top dead weight under vacuum at <1000° ( click picture below -right to see how )

|
- The tube furnaces with quartz tube are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure <0.2 bar / 3 psi / 0.02 MPa. Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up to 1000°C. The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM (or 200ml/min) for reducing thermal shocks to the tube.
- Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator.
