The temperature of a quartz tube furnace can typically reach up to 1200°C. This is based on the material properties of quartz, which has a softening point of 1270 degrees. When operating at 1200 degrees, it is recommended not to exceed three hours of continuous use to prevent deformation or damage to the quartz tube.
Quartz tube furnaces are designed for various applications in both commercial and research settings, including semiconductor production, thermocouple manufacturing, vacuum brazing, and more. They are equipped with programmable temperature controllers that allow for precise heating and cooling rates, enhancing their utility in controlled environments.
The furnaces are available in different sizes with outer diameters ranging from 40 to 100 mm, and they can be fitted with accessories like vacuum pumps and ceramic end plugs to facilitate various processes. For applications requiring temperatures higher than 1200°C, alternative materials like corundum tubes are recommended.
Proper maintenance and handling of the quartz tubes are crucial. They should be cleaned before use, handled gently to avoid damage, and used within specified temperature limits to ensure longevity and safety.
