GSL1700XS60 High-Temperature Tube Furnace with 5″ Alumina Tube, 1700°C Max, Vacuum Flanges and Programmable SCR Controller
The GSL1700XS60 tube furnace is engineered for advanced material and chemical research requiring precise high-temperature processing under vacuum or controlled gas environments. Its design accommodates sintering and heat treatment of various sample types within a compact footprint, making it suitable for laboratory settings focused on new material development.
This furnace utilizes a premium 60 mm diameter alumina ceramic tube, 800 mm in length, supported by vacuum flanges equipped with needle valves and a vacuum gauge for immediate use. The heating chamber is lined with high-purity alumina refractory material to optimize energy efficiency and thermal stability. The system supports continuous operation at 1650°C and short-term peaks up to 1700°C, with a controlled heating zone length of 125 mm and a stable constant temperature zone of 50 mm within ±3°C at 1500°C.
Wichtigste Merkmale
- Four 1800 MoSi2 heating elements (30×270 mm) provide uniform and efficient heating.
- 30-segment programmable SCR digital temperature controller with PID control and auto-tune for precise temperature management within ±1°C.
- Vacuum-compatible alumina tube with included sealing flanges, vacuum gauge, and needle valves for controlled atmosphere processing.
- Double-layer steel casing with air cooling and internal fans to maintain external surface temperature below 60°C.
- Maximum heating and cooling rates of 10°C per minute to ensure controlled thermal cycling.
- Includes four fibrous ceramic tube blocks to minimize heat radiation losses inside the tube.
- Optional upgrades available such as Eurotherm 3000 series controller, digital vacuum gauges, and mobile carts.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
Ideal for sintering, annealing, and heat treatment of advanced ceramics, metals, and composite materials under vacuum or controlled atmospheres. Commonly used in materials science research, chemical synthesis, and semiconductor processing laboratories.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The furnace includes one alumina tube, a pair of vacuum flanges with double silicone O-rings, four ceramic tube blocks, four heating elements, and a B-type thermocouple. Vacuum gauge and needle valves are installed on the flanges for immediate vacuum operation. Users should perform temperature calibration before use to ensure accuracy. Tube supports are recommended to prevent bending at high temperatures. The gas pressure supplied must be limited below 3 PSI with a two-stage regulator, and gas flow rates should not exceed 200 SCCM. Vacuum operation is safely recommended up to 1500°C. Optional accessories include digital vacuum gauges, mobile carts, advanced temperature controllers, and vacuum pump suites sold separately.
