High-accuracy electric muffle furnace
New Labotec precision weighing furnaces
T
he new Labotec Precision Muffle laboratory furnaces have added balances to weigh the materials before, during, and after a process. Designed for combustion loss determination useful in a variety of technical processes, one does not need to open the furnace and take out the contents in order to find out the status of materials. Examples of materials that use this process are sediment, sludge, soil, waste, or inorganic materials such as cement, lime, calcinated bauxite, and refractories firing up to 1 100°C. The furnace is an excellent fit for scientific laboratories, educational institutions, ceramic studios and is used in medicine and industry. The Labotec furnace also offers information about the completion of the process - as soon as the weight ceases to decrease. To eliminate gases or smoke that are released during thermal processing, an exhaust system may be installed additionally.
T
