A muffle furnace is a type of high-temperature heating device used in laboratories and industrial settings to heat materials in a controlled, isolated environment. The term "muffle" refers to the insulation that separates the sample being heated from direct contact with the heating elements, preventing contamination or combustion.
| High-Temperature Capability | Can reach up to 1200°C to 1800°C, depending on the model |
|---|---|
| Insulated Heating Chamber | Heavily insulated with ceramic fiber or refractory bricks for minimal heat loss and maximum efficiency |
| Isolated Heating Elements | Heating elements are not in direct contact with the sample, preventing contamination |
| Accurate Temperature Control | Equipped with digital PID controllers for precise temperature regulation |
| Fast Heating & Cooling Rates | Rapid heat-up times to the desired temperature |
| Durable Construction | Built with rust-resistant stainless steel exterior |
