Salt-Bath Furnaces for Chemical Hardening of Glass
Tmax 500 °C, tailored design possible up to Tmax 1000 °C.
Function and equipment
Salt-bath furnace TS ../50 is designed especially for chemical tempering of glass in the laboratory. Chemical tempering is a process used to strengthen thin glass with wall thicknesses of just a few millimeters. The benefit of chemical pre-stressing is that the surface quality remains intact. Almost all glass with a high sodium content can be strengthened through ion exchange.
- Tmax 500 °C
- Salt-bath furnace in compact design with salt-bath and pre-heated-/cooling chamber above the salt-bath
- Exclusive use of insulation materials without categorization according to EC Regulation No 1272/2008 (CLP). This explicitly means that alumino silicate wool, also known as “refractory ceramic fiber” (RCF), which is classified and possibly carcinogenic, is not used.
- Bath temperature control
- Indirect heating of the preheated chamber from the salt-bath
- Automatic, time controlled movement from the preheating chamber into the salt-bath and back
- Electrical door lock
- Crucible made of hiqh-quality CrNi steel
- Over-temperature limiter with adjustable cutout temperature as temperature limiter to protect the furnace and load
- Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
- NTLog Basic for Nabertherm controller: recording of process data with USB-flash drive
- Controller with touch operation P570 (50 programs with each 40 segments)
