The tube furnaces of series RS .. can be used for horizontal and with optional frame for vertical operation. The split-type design makes it easy to change the working tube. It allows for a comfortable exchange of various working tubes (e.g. working tubes made of different materials).

Using a wide range of accessories, these professional tube furnaces can be optimally tailored for your process. By adding different gas supply packages, you can work in a protective gas atmosphere, with gases or in a vacuum. In addition to the convenient standard controllers, modern PLC controls can also be used to control the process. 

Standard Equipment

  • Tmax 1100 °C or 1300 °C
  • Heated length from 250 mm to 1000 mm
  • Maximum outer tube diameter up to 170 mm
  • 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.
  • Tabletop model, mounted horizontally on an external switchboard including controller
  • 2 m connecting cable in a protective metal conduit
  • Split-type design for simple insertion of the working tube (opening temperature < 180 °C)
  • Ceramic working tube C 530 including two fiber plugs for operation under air
  • Thermocouple type N (1100 °C) or type S (1300 °C)
  • Solid state relays provide for lownoise operation
  • Heating elements on support tubes provide for free radiation
  • Controller with touch operation C550 (10 programs with each 20 segments)
  • Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
  • NTLog Basic for Nabertherm controller: recording of process data with USB-flash drive

Additional equipment

Additional Equipment

  • Frame for converting the furnace to vertical operation
  • Tube adapter shells for the use of tubes with different diameters
  • Charge control with temperature measurement in the working tube
  • Three-zone control for optimization of temperature uniformity
  • Cooling systems for accelerated cooling of the working tube and charge
  • Gas supply systems 1,15 or 2 for non-flammable process gas operation
  • Vacuum package to evacuate the working tube
  • Process control and documentation via VCD software package for monitoring, documentation and control
