Flanges and Gas Inlet
| • Two sets of CF-63 flanges are welding on two ends of the tube which allow high vacuum up to 10E-5 torr and 30 PSI positive pressure.- • One solenoid valve is installed on the left of the flange for Hydrogen gas inlet. It connects
with hydrogen detector. Once hydrogen gas leak is detected ( 10% below hydrogen explode point ), gas inlet valve will be shut down immediately - • One pressure gauge is installed on the end of gas inlet. Hydrogen gas pressure must be
controlled under 5 PSI, which can be adjust by a stainless steel needle valve
|
Hydrogen Detector System
(included)
| • One Honeywell UL Approved Sensepoint Gas Detector is Integrated into the system.- • Working Temperature Range: 40ºF to +149ºF (-40ºC to +65ºC)
- • Alarm Point: H2 Limited Explosive Line 10% (10% LEL). Once detecting H2
gas beyond the point, it will shut off the inlet valve to the H2 automatically.

|
• Tube furnaces with alumina tubes are designed for using under vacuum and low pressure < 0.12 atm (absolute pressure)
- • The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM (or 200 ml/min) for reducing thermal
shocks to the tube
- • Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on gas cylinder to limit the
pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation.

- • Vacuum limit definition for all quartz tube furnaces: * Vacuum pressures may only be safely
used up to 1000°
