Features a unitized furnace and temperature controller cabinet, saving valuable bench space. Can reach 1600°C in 40 minutes without overstressing heating elements. All controllers have RS-232 digital communications as a standard feature. The forced air circulation between inner and outer walls ensures longevity of the electronic components and helps maintain a cool exterior. Comes with two inert gas injection ports, one on the back of the unit and one on top. The ports are 3/8 in. in diameter and are supplied with plugs. The furnace also features interchangeable single setpoint and programmable control modules, allowing the operator flexibility and ease of access if interchanging is needed. Operating temperature range is 800°to 1700°C. Two-year warranty.

Note: The maximum current is determined by the limiting factor set by the current controller. In the event that 40 amperes are not available, the current controller may be set to limit the current to some similar value at the expense of a somewhat longer heat-up time. The variation in current is a result of molybdenum disilicide heating elements having a large change in resistance with increasing temperatures.
