MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS

This range of tube furnaces is supplied in one of two standard mounting configurations.

Both configurations include a 2 metre cable (incl. plug and socket) between the furnace body and control box. This flexible arrangement allows for easy conversion to optional mounting arrangements e.g. attaching to a vertical stand, a mounting bracket or inside a fume cupboard.

For heated lengths up to 600 mm the furnace body is mounted on top of the control box. The furnace body can easily be detached and separated for remote operation.
For heated lengths of 800 mm and above the furnace body and control box are always separate.
