The chamber opening is on the front side with a vertically opening door, which is designed to not expose its hot side to the user when opened. The sensor cable feedthrough is on the back side via a small diameter ceramic tube that extends few centimeters outside the muffle furnace. The muffle furnace can be used up to 800°C, and the temperature stability is better than ±0.5°C.
The muffle furnace is intended to be used with our bare sensors mounted in our sensor interface for high-temperature accessories, in combination with dedicated high-temperature sample holders. Kapton-insulated Hot Disk® or Hot Strip sensors can be used for chamber temperatures up to 300°C, while Mica-insulated Hot Disk® sensors must be used above 300°C.
This muffle furnace is automatically controlled via the Hot Disk Desktop App over RS232 communication. The Hot Disk Desktop App can be programmed to automatically perform a series of measurements with the Hot Disk instrument at multiple chamber temperatures.
