Versatile LGO Series Box Furnaces feature the latest technical advances in heating elements insulation and temperature control all integrated into a self-contained cabinet. The patented LGO heating element (light gauge overbend) delivers maximum radiant heat energy to the process load. The LGO element is partially imbedded within the exclusive Moldatherm? insulation combined with unique double shell construction to provide optimum temperature uniformity energy efficiency fast response quick heat-up and rapid cool-down.
Features and Benefits
- Patented LGO (light gauge overbend) heating elements with Moldatherm insulation for efficient and economical transfer of heat to chamber with low exterior temperatures
- Variable heat-up rate eliminates thermal shock to materials with quick heat-up and cool-down rates
- Choice of side hinge or vertical lift door
- Air vent (1" dia. top) and air inlet (.375" dia. rear) for inert atmosphere exchange. May experience some leakage at door Self-tuning digital instrumentation for precise temperature setpoint and display
- Platinel II? thermocouple for long-term stability
- Main power on/off switch on control panel; control panel designed for easy maintenance access
- Safety door switch to interrupt power to heating element when door is opened; protects heating elements and minimizes exposure to end-user
- Removable shelves for versatility; 0.58 cu.ft. models include 1 two-part shelf center position; 1.95 cu.ft. models have 3 shelf positions; 1 two-part shelf included standard
- Moldatherm hearthplate supports load and prevents damage due to spillage
