VBF1200S Vertical Crucible Furnace with 4.7″ Diameter x 8″ Height Chamber, SS316 Corrosion-Resistant Case, 1000°C Continuous Operation
The VBF1200S is designed for precise high-temperature crucible processing tasks requiring a compact vertical furnace that fits within glovebox environments. Its chamber dimensions of 4.7 inches diameter by 8 inches height (120 mm ID x 200 mm H) accommodate various crucibles for material synthesis or heat treatment under controlled atmospheres. This furnace supports continuous operation up to 1000°C, with the capability to reach 1100°C for short durations up to one hour, making it suitable for demanding thermal processes.
Constructed with a stainless steel 316 case, the furnace offers enhanced corrosion resistance for longevity in reactive or humid lab environments. The temperature control system is housed separately, enabling remote operation and precise regulation with ±1°C accuracy. The unit includes two Omega K-type thermocouples—one dedicated to furnace temperature control and another for monitoring—to ensure reliable thermal management. The compact footprint and ability to be introduced into gloveboxes through antechambers facilitate integration into sensitive experimental setups.

대표적인 적용 분야
The VBF1200S is ideal for laboratory-scale crucible heating tasks including material synthesis, annealing, sintering, and thermal treatment of samples requiring controlled atmospheres. Its compatibility with glovebox environments makes it suitable for air-sensitive or reactive materials processing.
구성 및 작동 안내
An optional SS316 reaction vessel (model VBF600S) is available separately, featuring a processing tube with DN80ISO-K top flange and six 1/4″ compression tube ports. This vessel includes an alumina spacer for thermal isolation and adapts to the furnace chamber, but limits maximum temperature to 600°C. Users should ensure proper handling of thermocouples and follow safety protocols for high-temperature operation.
