Application Notes

• 
       •  The tube furnaces with mullite tube are designed for using under vacuum and low pressure
           < 0.02 MPa / 0.2 Bar/ 3 PSI
•      •  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. 
•      •  Never heat the furnace while the gas release valve is closed and a positive pressure condition
           exists within the furnace chamber. The pressure gauge must be used to closely monitor the
            chamber condition at all times during the heating process; please open the gas release
            valve immediately once the chamber pressure has reached over 3 PSI to prevent
            unforeseeable damages.
•      •  The flow rate for gasses should be limited to < 200 SCCM ( or 200ml/min )
•      •  Vacuum limit definition for all mullite tube furnaces: * Vacuum pressures may only be safely
           used up to 1300°C
•      •  NOTE The mullite tube shall be considered as a consumable part. We strongly recommend
           user keep spare tubes in order to ensure the continuity of operation. The tube is not covered
            by Warranty. Use the link to order more.
