VBF-1100X-Q is a 2" ID vacuum tube furnace with the function of fast heating and cooling ( optional water quenching ) for heat treatment of air-sensitive materials. The sample will be placed inside half opened and vacuum-sealed tube, then insert into the pre-heated furnace to achieve fast heating (~ 10oC/S ). After treatment, the tube will be raised up automatically, then insert into an ice tank for quenching ( quickly cooling ). This furnace was designed for LPS powder and can be used for quenching all material under vacuum or controlled atmosphere

Warning
Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator
|
- Tube furnaces with quartz tubes are designed for use under vacuum and at low-pressure < 0.2 bars
- Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation.
- A maximum temperature of 1000°C should be imposed on all quartz tube furnaces to avoid the quartz tubes undergoing deformations under vacuum.
-
The flow rate for gasses should be limited to < 200 SCCM for reducing thermal shocks
|
|
Optional
|
The furnace can upgrade to 4 quartz tubes with rotating mechanism to achieve high throughput sintering
