1200°C Small Diameter Tube Furnaces
Blue M 1200°C split hinge tube furnaces are configurable
for horizontal or vertical use. Choose from single zone models of
12", 18", 24", and 36" heated lengths, and three zone models of
24" to 36" heated lengths. Furnaces use independent digital temperature
control modules (ordered separately) which are available in standard
or programmable options.
The split hinge design permits easy observation, fast cooling,
convenient placement of the process tube and overall ease of operation.
All models can be used with a variety of ceramic, quartz, or alloy
process tubes (customer supplied), diameters to 6" depending on
model. One set of tube adapters is included with each model

Options
Single-Zone Furnace Options
- Option P:
One Programmable controller
This option offers the convenient flexibility of multiple ramping
to setpoint temperatures and holding for variable time periods
at those temperatures. The temperature controller provides 16
programmable segments consisting of ramps or dwells.
- Option P4:
One 4-Program Controller
This option offers the convenient flexibility of multiple ramping
to setpoint temperatures and holding for variable time periods
at those temperatures. The controller provides up to four 16 programmable
segments or, linked
together, one 64-segment program.
- Option B:
Excess temperature protection
This option provides positive protection of both furnace and load
in event of failure in the primary control circuit. Completely
redundant circuit includes separate high temperature limit instrument
with manual reset pushbutton, magnetic contactor and independent
thermocouple.
Three-Zone Furnace Options
- Option P:
One Programmable Controller plus zone controls
Center zone: This option offers the convenient flexibility of
multiple ramping to setpoint temperatures and holding for variable
time periods at those temperatures. The temperature controller
provides 16 programmable segments consisting of ramps or dwells.
End zone: Two digital temperature deviation controllers, one in
each end zone, mimic the programmed profile of the center zone
temperature, but allow an offset up to ±100°C. Offset
is digitally displayed.
- Option 3P:
Three Programmable Controllers
Each of the three zones is controlled by a programmable controller
with its own thermocouple. Each controller provides 16-programmable
segments consisting of ramps or dwells.
- Option P4:
One 4-Program Controller plus zone controls
Center zone: The controller provides up to four 16-programmable
segments or, linked together, one 64-segment program.
End zone: Two digital temperature deviation controllers, one in
each end zone, mimic the programmed profile of the center zone
temperature, but allow an offset up to ±100°C. Offset
is digitally displayed.
- Option 3P4:
Three 4-Program Controllers
Each of the three zones is controlled by a programmable controller
with its own thermocouple. Each controller provides up to four
16-programmable segments or, linked together, one 64-segment program.
- Option B:
Excess temperature protection
This option provides positive protection of both furnace and load
in event of failure in the primary control circuit. Completely
redundant circuit includes separate high temperature limit instrument
with manual reset pushbutton, magnetic contactor and independent
thermocouple.
Other Options
- Digital communication kits allow modification and interrogation
of all instrument control and configuration parameters from a
remote computer using Blue M provided SPECVIEW ® software.
Kits are available to interface with RS232 or RS422/485 communication
ports.
- Atmosphere retorts are available when controlled atmosphere
processing is required.
- Floor stand, for vertical installation. This option is required
to support 55000 Series Tube Furnaces in a vertical configuration.
Floorstands include all mounting hardware.
- Inert and Combustible atmosphere admission systems.
