OTF-1200X-III-GB Three-Zone Tube Furnace with Glovebox and Purification System for Air-Sensitive Material Processing up to 1200°C
The OTF-1200X-III-GB is engineered to facilitate the heat treatment of air-sensitive materials requiring an environment with oxygen and humidity levels below 1 ppm. This system integrates a three-zone tube furnace directly connected to a stainless steel glovebox equipped with a high-performance purification system, enabling controlled atmosphere processing and sample handling without exposure to ambient air.
The glovebox features a spacious chamber measuring 1200 mm long, 740 mm wide, and 900 mm high, with hinged front doors for easy loading of samples and devices. It includes two antechambers for sample transfer and an 80 mm diameter air-tight flange for secure connection to the tube furnace. The purification system incorporates automatic purging and regeneration functions to rapidly remove oxygen and moisture before recirculating the purified atmosphere.
Wichtigste Merkmale
- Three independent heating zones with lengths of 6″, 12″, and 6″ respectively, allowing precise temperature control.
- Maximum operating temperature of 1200°C with Eurotherm controllers providing ±0.1°C accuracy.
- Quartz tube dimensions: 80 mm outer diameter, 72 mm inner diameter, and 1219 mm length.
- Air-tight flanges equipped with valves and vacuum gauges for controlled atmosphere and vacuum operations.
- Glovebox constructed from stainless steel with automatic purging and regeneration for maintaining O2 and H2O below 1 ppm.
- Two antechambers facilitate sample transfer without compromising the controlled environment.
- Single-phase power supply compatible with 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz; glovebox power consumption 2500 W including vacuum pump, furnace power 5000 W.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
This integrated furnace and glovebox system is ideal for processing materials that are highly sensitive to oxygen and moisture, such as advanced battery components, catalysts, and other reactive chemical compounds. It supports heat treatments, annealing, and synthesis under controlled atmospheres, enabling seamless transfer of samples for subsequent handling or analysis without exposure to ambient air.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The system includes the tube furnace, glovebox with purification system, vacuum pump, and necessary air-tight flanges. Optional certification such as NRTL (UL 1450) can be requested separately. Operators should ensure proper use of the automatic purging and regeneration functions to maintain ultra-low oxygen and moisture levels. Safe handling protocols for high-temperature operations and glovebox atmosphere control are recommended.
