Cupellation Furnace - BRF12-CF24

1100°C

Overview

BRF12-CF24 Cupellation furnaces are specifically designed for the fire assay process, a standard method used to determine the purity of precious metals.

The design of the cupellation furnace range safeguards it from corrosive environments that could cause a conventional furnace to deteriorate.

This Cupellation furnace accommodates 24 cupels of size No.8 or 32 cupels of size No.6. We also offer a bigger chamber furnace that can hold 47 cupels of size no.8 or 70 cupels of size no.6.

We also provide cupellation furnaces with other capacities upon request.

Cupellation Furnace
  • Maximum Temperature: 1200°C
  • Maximum Continuous Temperature: 1200°C
  • Chamber (mm) - H x W x D -200 x 250 x 340. (Bigger chamber furnaces are also available and can be offered upon request)
  • Combination dense refractory for durability, load bearing and corrosion resistance with low thermal mass remainder for economical running
  • The working chamber is lined with silicon carbide slabs to withstand the lead fumes evolved during the process
  • A variable airflow system allows preheated air into the chamber and out of a large insulated chimney to evacuate process fumes as quickly as possible
  • R-type Thermocouples
  • Over Temperature protection is fitted as standard
  • A removable container attached to the chimney to collect condensed lead Vertically lifting door keeps the hot surface away from the user
  • Positive break door safety switch isolates heating elements from power supply when door is opened
  • High-end micro-processor PID controller BRF12-CF24
  • Multi segment, multi program storage controllers
  • Magnesia refractory cupels of various standard sizes
