Description
This compact RHTC tube furnace series features SiC rod heating with integrated switchgear and a touch controller (P580). Suited for versatile high-temperature processes, it provides excellent temperature uniformity and flexible accessory mounting options for industrial applications.

Standard equipment

• Tmax 1600 °C (recommended continuous working temperature 1500 °C)
• SiC rod heating elements arranged parallel to the working tube for high uniformity
• Ceramic working tube C 799 with two fiber plugs (air operation)
• Dual-shell ventilated stainless steel housing with active cooling for low external surface temperature
• Insulation materials without classification under EC Regulation No. 1272/2008 (no RCF)
• Type S thermocouple; solid state relays for low-noise operation
• NTLog Basic for process data logging via USB; controller P580 (touch, 50 programs × 40 segments)

Additional equipment

• Over-temperature limiter with adjustable cutout for furnace and load protection
• Charge control with temperature measurement in the working tube
• Gas supply packages (1, 2 or 4) and related configurations
• VCD software package for process control, monitoring and documentation
