TMV18

Multi Zone Vertical Tube Furnaces - TMV18(Z3)

1800°C Maximum

Overview

The TMV18(Z3) furnace is a vertical-mounted tube furnace with a separate control console, ideal for most general laboratory thermal processing applications.

Multi-Zone Tube Furnaces TMV18
Heating elements

Molybdenum tungsten Disilicide heating elements are mounted along the front and rear walls of the furnace chamber.

  • The TMV18(Z3) furnaces are designed to give a longer uniform centre zone temperature than that of the single zone tube furnace models of the same length.
  • All TMV18(Z3) models are controlled by retransmission of set point from the centre zone controller to the end zone controllers.
  • A work tube is not supplied as an integral part of the furnace and therefore needs to be ordered with the furnace as it is an essential accessory.
  • Protective outer mesh covers for improved operator safety.
  • Low thermal mass insulation used throughout for maximum thermal efficiency and stability.
  • 'B' type Thermocouples are used in these furnaces.
  • Over temperature protection is included in the standard specification.
  • High end Microprocessor PID controller.
  • Horizontal models are supplied as standard with controls in the base.
  • Single, Phase angle fired thyristor unit in conjunction with a low voltage secondary winding isolating transformer providing the correct operating parameters for the heating elements.
  • Work tubes of various materials, lengths and diameters for use in the furnace
  • Two or more zones are also available
  • Independent control of each zone is also available
  • The work tubes are available for containment of atmosphere or protection against process contaminants
  • A variety of triple flange gas tight end seals for work tubes to allow processing under gas atmospheres
  • Multi segment, multi program storage controllers
  • Thermal Radiation Screens/Shields
  • A wide range of furnace mounting configurations, such as Tripod stands, Wall-Mounted Brackets, L-stands, Custom Adjustable Stands, etc.

Note 1:

The work tube is not supplied as an integral part of the furnace and therefore needs to be purchased with the order as it is an essential accessory.

Note 2:

For Multi-zone Tube furnaces, we can supply:

  1. Two or more zones.
  2. Split-tube furnaces with multi-zone configuration also available.
  3. Other temperatures that are not specified.
  4. Other Tube diameters and lengths that are not specified
