Tube Furnace - 1700°C High Temperature Horizontal Tube Furnace - Ø40-100 mm Tube, MoSi2

The Master Science 1700°C Tube Furnace is a horizontal, single-zone high-temperature furnace for heat treatment, sintering and materials research under controlled conditions. It reaches 1700°C for short periods and works continuously at up to 1550°C, using MoSi2 heating rods and a B-type thermocouple.

Samples are processed inside high-purity corundum (alumina) or quartz tubes installed horizontally through an alumina ceramic fibre chamber. A PID controller with SCR phase-angle firing holds temperature to ±1°C and stores 30-segment time-temperature programs, and twelve model variants of the Master Science 1700°C Tube Furnace combine tube lengths of 800, 1000 or 1200 mm with diameters from 40 to 100 mm.

Problems the Master Science 1700°C Tube Furnace Solves

High-temperature processing demands accurate control and safe operation. The Master Science 1700°C Tube Furnace helps with:

• Temperature overshoot: PID with SCR phase control keeps ±1°C accuracy.
• Complex heating profiles: 30 program segments cover ramps, holds and cooling.
• Hot outer surfaces: Air-cooled double-layer shell keeps the exterior safe to touch.
• Sample contamination: Processing inside a sealed tube isolates samples.
