Operation Instructions & Video | |
Warning Click here to learn more about the installation of a gas regulator.
| - The tube furnaces with quartz tube are designed for using under vacuum and low pressure <0.2 bar / 3 psi / 0.02 MPa. Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up to 1000°C. The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM (or 200ml/min) for reducing thermal shocks to the tube.
- Attention: A two stage pressure regulator must be installed on gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator.
