High-Temperature Tube Furnaces for Horizontal or Vertical Operation up to 1800 °C
By using different gas supply systems, operations can be performed under non-flammable or flammable protective or reactive gases or under vacuum.
Function and equipment
Tube furnace RHTV 50/150/17 with stand and gas supply system 2
RHTH 80/300/18 tube furnace with water-cooled flanges and charge control
RHTH 120/600/18 with gas supply system 4 for operation with hydrogen

Sintering under hydrogen in a tube furnace of RHTH product line
Example of over-temperature limiter
The high-temperature tube furnaces are available in either horizontal (type RHTH) or vertical (type RHTV) designs. High-quality insulation materials made of vacuum-formed fiber plates enable energy-saving operation due to low heat storage and heat conductivity. By using different gas supply systems, operations can be performed under non-flammable or flammable protective or reactive gases or under vacuum.
Standard Equipment
- Tmax 1600 °C, 1700 °C, or 1800 °C
- Single-zoned design
- Dual shell ventilated housing made of textured stainless steel sheets for low surface temperature and high stability
- 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.
- Insulation with vacuum-formed ceramic fiber plates
- Tube furnaces RHTV with frame for vertical operation
- Type B thermocouple
- Solid state relays provide for lownoise operation
- Ceramic working tube C 799 including two fiber plugs for operation under air
- Hanging and easy to change MoSi2 heating elements
- Power unit with low-voltage transformer and thyristor
- Over-temperature limiter with adjustable cutout temperature as temperature limiter to protect the furnace and load
- Switchgear and control unit separate from furnace in separate floor standing cabinet
- 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)
Additional equipment
Additional Equipment
- Charge control with temperature measurement in the working tube
- Three-zone control for optimization of temperature uniformity (only horizontal tube furnaces RHTH)
- Gas supply system 2 for non-flammable process gas
- Gas supply system 4 for hydrogen operation
- Vacuum package to evacuate the working tube
- Process control and documentation via VCD software package for monitoring, documentation and control
