Description

1200℃ Vacuum Atmosphere Box Furnace

This box furnace integrates a temperature control system, vacuum furnace chamber, vacuum pump, gas path control system, pressure protection system, gas flow control system, positive and negative pressure display system, and circulating cooling system. It is specifically designed for material sintering, heat treatment, atmosphere protection experiments, and vacuum process research and development. The equipment uses a vacuum-formed high-purity alumina fiber lightweight material lining, featuring low heat storage, rapid heating, and excellent heat preservation performance. The maximum operating temperature can reach 1200℃, and it can operate stably in vacuum, slightly positive pressure, and protective atmosphere environments.

Product Features

  1. Integrated Vacuum/Atmosphere/Positive/Negative Pressure Multi-Mode System

Integrates temperature control, vacuum furnace, vacuum pump, gas path, pressure protection, gas flow control, positive/negative pressure display, and water circulation pump into one unit. The water circulation tank and furnace body are separate designs. It can accept various gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, argon, carbon monoxide, and oxygen, and supports switching between vacuum (100Pa-10⁻¹Pa) and micro-positive pressure (≤10kPa) modes.

  1. Water-Cooling Protection System for Comprehensive Cooling of Key Components

Water cooling covers the furnace opening, furnace door, and furnace top of the furnace inner shell, with 1-inch water cooling pipe interfaces. This effectively reduces the temperature of seals and the furnace body, extending equipment lifespan and ensuring vacuum sealing performance.

  1. 6-20mm Thick Furnace Steel Plate, Pressure Resistance 0.1MPa

The furnace steel plate is 6-20mm thick, double-sided welded, and can withstand a positive pressure of 0.1MPa. The robust and durable structure ensures safe operation under both positive and negative pressure conditions.

  1. Pressure Protection System, Automatic Safety Pressure Relief

The system receives signals from an electrical contact pressure gauge or pressure sensor, driving the control module to close the electromagnetic inlet valve and activate the electromagnetic exhaust valve and alarm, releasing pressure from the exhaust port. An audible and visual alarm buzzer sounds. This effectively prevents dangers caused by exhaust port blockage or excessive pressure.

  1. Three-Temperature Zone Design, Excellent Temperature Uniformity

The system employs a three-temperature zone design, with silicon carbide heating elements installed on both sides of the furnace chamber, forming a double-sided heating field. Temperature control accuracy is ±1℃, and the maximum heating rate is 45℃/min, meeting the sintering process requirements of different materials.
