Temperature Controller
| • PID automatic control with 30 programmable segments for precise control of heating rate, cooling rate and dwell time.- • Built-in over temperature alarm and protection allows for operation without an attendant.
- • Two K-type thermal couples are included. One is built in the furnace to control furnace temperature,
and another inserted into the tube to monitor sample real temperature profile. - • One NIST certified thermometer is included to connect to the thermal couple inside the tube. the meter
has RS232 Interface with Windows Software which can record temperature profile by PC. - • PC control module is included.
- • Advanced Temperature Control (Optional)
- º MTS02-Y Temperature control software kit (for YD518P series controllers) + 15" laptop package
is available at the options bar. Click for the detail information about the MTS02-Y software kit. - º You may upgrade the temperature controller to the Eurotherm 3504 Temperature Controller
which is fully compatible with LabVIEW. This package includes a Eurotherm 3504 programmer, a communication cable (RS485 - USB) and a software CD. Click the pic below to view the full spec of the Eurotherm 3504 temperature controller.

Vacuum Flanges
| • Stainless steel vacuum flanges are installed on both ends of the tube with heavy duty support. - º Right flange: KF-25 pump connector and needle valve.
- º Left flange: one needle valve and 1/4" thermocouple feed-through and digital vacuum gauge.
- º An 24" length x 1/4" Dia. K type thermocouple (included) connected to an Omega temperature
calibrator (included) will be inserted through this flange to monitor the heating and cooling rates of the sample's position during furnace sliding.

Application Notes
Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator
| • Tube furnaces with quartz tubes are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.2 bars / 3 psi / 0.02 MPa- • Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the
pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn the installation of a gas regulator. - • The flow rate for gasses should be limited to < 200 SCCM (or 200 ml/min) for reducing thermal shocks
to the tube - • Vacuum limit definition for all quartz tube furnaces: * Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up
to 1000°C - • Click here to learn How to set up quartz/ ceramic tube and vacuum flange for MTI Tube Furnace.
- • If you need faster cooling jar please click the picture below to order a Portable Spot Air Cooling Conditioner.
- • Warning: Fast sample cooling can be achieved by sliding the heating chamber away. Please wear
protective gears such as heat resistant suit & gloves if you intend to do so. DO NOT TOUCH THE TUBE SURFACE WHEN IT IS HOT
