behr IRF 10 Infra-red Furnace |
 |
The IR (infra-red) furnace is heated by twin IR sources, which are positioned along one focus of an elliptical cylindrical mirror. The infra-red radiation is reflected by the mirror onto a quartz tube, lying along the second ellipse focus. Oxygen may be passed through the quartz tube to combust samples placed within it.
- Rapid heating (room temp. to 1000 °C in 10 sec.)
- Up to 5 intervals of constant or increasing temperature are freely programmable
- The temperature is measured by a thermocouple located within the elliptical cylinder.
- The elliptical mirror is constructed as two separable halves, enabling viewing of the combustion zone.
- The upper mirror-half can be retracted on roller-bearings for rapid furnace cooling and inspection of the heated zone.
- A "Heat Pipe" cooling system provides rapid cooling and obviates the need for expensive water cooling.
