GSL-1500X-50RTP is a CE certified slide-able tube furnace that utilizes 44mm ID x304.8 mm (12") L mullite or quartz tubes (one end closed). The maximum working temperature for this furnace is 1500ºC. One pair of sliding rail is installed on bottom of furnace for manually moving it from one side to the other. Sliding this furnace allows it to achieve fast heating and cooling (details in the chart below). For the fastest heating, you can insert a mullite processing tube into the pre-heated furnace at the desired temperature. For the fast cooling, you can remove the tube from the hot furnace chamber and use forced air cooling. The heating and cooling rates can be much higher under vacuum or inert gases. It is ideal furnace for rapid thermal processing at the lowest cost.
SPECIFICATIONS
Furnace Structure
•One sliding flange is installed on right side furnace, which can move processing tube in & out easily. •Vacuum flanges can reach 10E-5 torr by molecular pump or 10E-3 torr by mechanical pump.

Two S type thermal couples are included. One is built in furnace to control furnace temperature, and another inserted into tube to monitor sample real temperature profile
Temperature Controller
•PID automatic control with 30 programmable segments for precise control of heating rate, cooling rate and dwell time. •Built-in over temperature alarm and protection allows for operation without attendant. •+/- 1 ºC temperature accuracy. •PC Control
•A MTS-02control module is included for PC control on this furnace. •A laptop PC can be ordered for together with the furnace. We recommend ordering a computer (laptop) from us to avoid software installation problems as we will perform installation and testing before shipping. For more information please click here.

Warranty
One year limited manufacturer's warranty with life time support (Consumable parts such as furnace liner, processing tubes, heating elements, and O-rings are not covered by the warranty, please order replacements at related products below.)
Compliance
•CE Certified •UL / MET / CSA Certification is available upon request, additional charges will apply •Temperature controller is MET and CE Certified •Transformer is UL Certified
Application Notes
•To get the fast heating preformance, first keep the tube out of the chamber meanwhile pre-heat the chamber to the required temperature. Then insert the tube into the chamber to get fast heat. Please watch the demo video below to see how this is done. •Tube furnaces with quartz tubes are designed for using under vacuum and low pressure < 0.12 MPa (absolute pressure).
Operation Instructions
OPTIONAL HIGH VACUUM PACKAGE
In order to achieve a vacuum level of 10-5 torr, we strongly suggest you to use a turbomolecular pump, KF25 adapter with stain steel vacuum pipe. Please order upgraded accessories from the table below:
