Gilson Company, Inc. Muffle Furnace, Digital, Max. 2192F(1200C),240V MF-6010

Laboratory furnaces from Thermolyne are used for ashing, ignition tests, gravimetric analyses, and volatile matter determinations. For construction materials, furnaces are used for tests of soils, aggregates, and cement. All have rugged components and top quality materials to assure longest service life. Select from standard digital, single set-point, or programmable controllers. The standard digital control displays chamber temperature until the push to set temperature button is pressed. The display then indicates set-point temperature until released. Models with single set-point control ramp directly to the set-point and dwell at that temperature. The display shows actual temperature or set-point. Furnaces with this control also feature over-temperature protection. Programmable controllers operate like single set-point controllers, except they can be programmed to ramp up or down as well as to dwell for constant temperature periods. These models also feature over-temperature protection. MF-6020 has 2-ramp/2-dwell program capability. All single set-point and programmable controllers have 0.3in (7.6mm) LED digital displays in either °C or °F. All models have multiple elements in sides, tops, and/or bottoms. Since doors and backs have no elements, only the center two-thirds of the chamber is considered uniform in temperature, and chamber size should be selected accordingly. MF-1310 and MF-1315 have ceramic fiber insulation for faster heat-up and reduction of energy consumption. All furnaces are equipped with safety interlock door switches. Power to the elements is automatically cut off when the door is opened. The MF-6020 must be hardwired on installation, all other furnaces are supplied with a cord and plug. All models operate on either 50Hz or 60Hz power supply.
