OTF1200XVTQ 1200°C Max Vertical Quenching Tube Furnace with 4″ Quartz Tube and Automatic Electromagnetic Sample Release
The OTF1200XVTQ furnace is engineered for laboratory applications requiring rapid quenching of materials from elevated temperatures up to 1200°C down to cryogenic or oil-based cooling media. This capability is essential for studying phase transitions and microstructural changes in various materials under controlled atmospheric conditions.
This vertical quenching furnace incorporates a vacuum-sealed quartz tube with a 101 mm outer diameter and 92 mm inner diameter, extending 1000 mm in length. The quartz tube connects via a gate valve to a liquid quenching tank, enabling samples to be dropped directly into the cooling medium. The furnace structure is double-layered steel with air cooling to maintain external surface temperatures below 65°C, and it is designed to be split vertically for ease of installation and maintenance.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
This furnace is ideal for materials research involving rapid thermal quenching to capture transient microstructures and phase states. It supports studies in metallurgy, ceramics, and advanced materials where controlled atmosphere and precise temperature profiles are critical.
The vacuum-sealed quartz tube and optional gas purification systems enable experiments under low oxygen and moisture conditions, suitable for air-sensitive samples.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The furnace includes the quartz tube, electromagnetic sample release flange, gate valve, and quenching tank. Optional accessories include a vacuum pump, gas purification system (RMP-1), hermetic quenching tank for atmosphere control, and a laptop-based control system with wireless remote.
Users must ensure the quenching medium is ice water or cooled oil when quenching under vacuum to prevent damage. Calibration of the temperature controller is recommended before use to ensure accuracy.
