FAQs about the Nabertherm muffle furnace with hinged door
How is the temperature documented?
The furnace control system offers an NT-Log-Basic function. Process sequences and temperature curves are automatically documented on a USB stick and can be easily read out on a PC.
Can the heating plate be changed during operation?
No, the ceramic heating plates can only be changed when the furnace is cold. However, the system offers quick, tool-free replacement for minimal downtime.
What power supply options are available?
The models are universally designed for 1-phase or 3-phase connection and are available for different country voltages (110-480 V, 50/60 Hz configurable).
Is operation in a controlled atmosphere possible?
The furnace has an externally adjustable air inlet and an exhaust air outlet, which allows for easy atmosphere settings (air, weakly oxidative). Additional modules are available as accessories for inert gases or special atmospheres.
Is the furnace also suitable for continuous operation applications?
Thanks to its robust fibre insulation, dual-sided heating and high-quality workmanship, the system is ideally suited for regular continuous operation in laboratories and production facilities.
Summary
The series scores highly in terms of flexibility with regard to laboratory capacity, temperature range and interface functionality. Special features such as controllable supply air, extensive accessories, the documentation interface and the innovative, durable heating plate technology make this laboratory furnace the first choice for users who expect precise heating applications and high process reliability.
