- 10 Mpa max. at <900°C
- 6 Mpa max. at <1000°C
- 4 Mpa max. at <1100°C
- Never heat up above 1200°C
|
| Working Gases | - Inert gas and oxygen
- No hydrogen or any flammable gas
|
Flange and Fitting | - Two CF type flanges are weld with female 1/4"NPT fitting to connect high-pressure tube
- 2 pcs Copper o-rings are included ( spare copper O-ring is available as consumable )
|
Gas Flow & Pressure Control System
 | - Gas flow and pressure control system is built in the separated unit with digital display ( see pic left )
- Two pressure sensors and digital displays are installed to monitor the pressure for gas inlet and furnace tube
- One high-pressure mass flow controller is installed at the gas outlet to control gas flow rate with max. 10Mpa working pressure and 500 SCCM flow rate
- Pressure relief valves are installed to ensure safety. The valve will release gas when the pressure reaches the setting point.

| Application Notes | - Hytort Application, or named Hydroretorting of Shale Oil is a process developed by IGT to double the yield of shale oil and hydrocarbon gases. MTI High-Pressure furnaces with Ni-based superalloy tube is an ideal tool for conducting related experiments. Please click underlined to view research paper.
|
| Safety Notes | - Ni-based Superalloy ( Waspaloy or equivalent) is a reliable processing tube which can be used under high temperature and high pressure.. It has excellent ductility and tensile property so only creep deformation happens under overpressure destruction test and following by a crack formed (usually at the hot zone at the center of tube) to release the pressure. Brittle fracture won’t happen in the overpressure destruction test which means no tube explosion will happen under overpressure of inert gas or safe gas or under other accidents causing overpressure of inert gas or safe gas.
Above pics show Ni-based Super-alloy ( Waspaloy or equivalent) processing tube under overpressure test
- Attention: For the use with flammable, toxic or corrosive gases, you must contact MTI engineering group for the consultation to know all the prerequisites and precautionary measures.
- Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Please click here to learn how to install the gas regulator.
