Description
- Utilize the latest technical advances in heating elements, insulation and temperature control integrated into a self-contained cabinet with Thermo Scientific Lindberg/Blue M LGO Box Furnaces.
- Furnaces feature proprietary LGO (light gauge overbend) heating elements and Thermo Scientific Moldatherm insulation for efficient and economical transfer of heat to chamber, with low exterior temperatures.
- Variable heat-up rate eliminates thermal shock to materials with inherently quick heat up and cool down rates.
- Not available in Europe.
Features
- Choice of side hinge or vertical lift door.
- Air vent (1" dia., top) and air inlet (0.375" dia., rear) for inert atmosphere exchange (may experience some leakage at door).
- Self-tuning, digital instrumentation for precise temperature setpoint and display.
- Platinel II thermocouple for long-term stability.
- 0.6 cu. ft. models feature vertical lift door; 2 cu. ft. models feature horizontal side swing door, hot side facing away from operator for protection.
Microprocessor Control
- Microprocessor-based self-tuning PID control (proportional, integral, derivative) provides optimum thermal process, prevents overshoot.
- Control panel designed for easy access and maintenance.
- Main power ON/OFF switch on control panel.
- Adjustable high-limit overtemperature protection.
- Simultaneous LED display of actual temperature vs. setpoint.
- Can be configured to display temperature in either °C or °F.
- Safety door switch interrupts power to heating element when door is opened; protects heating elements and minimizes exposure to end-user.
- Removable shelves for versatility.
- Moldatherm hearthplate supports load and prevents damage due to spillage.
Digital, Single-Setpoint Controller
- Single segment, single setpoint, one ramp to setpoint.
Digital Single-Program, Multiple-Segment Programmable Controller
- Single program with multiple segments for ramp (up and down) and dwell (timed hold) temperature control.
Digital Multiple-Program, Multiple-Segment Programmable Controller
- Available on models with (P) suffix designation.
- Multiple programs and segments for ramp (up and down) and dwell (timed hold) temperature control.
Overtemperature Control (OTC)†
- Adjustable digital overtemperature control, available on selected models with(B)suffix designation.
- Protects furnace and load in the event of primary control circuit failure.
- Overrides main controller and shuts off power to furnace if high limit is reached.
- Manual reset required for safety.
- Operates via magnetic contacts through signal from independent thermocouple.
Flowmeter Option (FM) (Inert Atmosphere Only)
- Available on selected models with (FM) designation.
- Gas flowmeter, adjustable, located on front control panel.
- Adjustable flowrate, range 1.0 to 10.0 cu. ft./hr. standard.
- Suitable for inert gas or airflow to chamber.
- Allows fresh air exchange for ashing applications Not suitable for combustible or volatile gases.
Ordering Information
- Required power cord and hardwiring not included.
- Optional RS485 Digital Communications Port allows controller to be connected to a PC for remote monitoring and control of the furnace; up to 30 units can be connected to one PC.
- †Specify Option.
- B for Overtemperature Control (OTC) when ordering.
Includes
- One two-part shelf (0.6 cu. ft. models have one shelf position at center position; 2.0 cu. ft. models have three shelf positions).
