Product Description
Chamber furnaces of type HTK KE furnaces are insulated with ceramic fibre.
Chamber furnaces with ceramic fibre lining are employed for processes with defined oxygen percentages or 100% oxygen atmosphere. Processes involving nitrogen and argon are also possible, but the atmosphere will not be as pure.
Processes for piezoceramic materials are possible and all oxide materials can be sintered. Other possibilities include the heat treatment of metals, crystal growth and the manufacture of ceramic powders. Hydrogen processes are limited to 1000°C. Vacuum operation is only recommended in low vacuum ranges.
Applications
annealing, crystal growth, debinding, drying, glowing, hardening, pyrolyses, sintering, tempering

FAQs of Chamber furnace, ceramic fibre insulation (HTK KE):
Q: How do I operate the HTK KE chamber furnace for optimal performance?
A: Begin by setting your desired temperature on the microprocessor-based PID controller, ensuring it does not exceed 1300C. Load your materials into the 35-litre chamber, close the fibre-insulated, side-hinged door securely, and monitor the digital display for temperature updates. The efficient insulation promotes rapid heating and uniform results.
Q: What makes the ceramic fibre insulation beneficial for heat treatment?
A: Vacuum-formed ceramic fibre modules provide exceptional thermal retention, reduce heat loss, and contribute to quicker heating rates up to 25C/min. This insulation ensures uniform chamber temperature, which is critical for precise laboratory and industrial heat treatment applications.
Q: When should I utilize the over-temperature cut-off and door safety interlock features?
A: These safety mechanisms are automatically engaged. The over-temperature cut-off prevents the chamber from exceeding safe limits, while the door safety interlock ensures the furnace cannot operate when the door is open, enhancing safety during all heat treatment processes.
Q: Where is this chamber furnace most suitable for use?
A: The HTK KE chamber furnace is ideal for laboratory environments, industrial workshops, and any setting requiring accurate and uniform heat treatment. It is especially valued by exporters, manufacturers, suppliers, and traders across India.
Q: What core components contribute to the HTK KEs accuracy and durability?
A: Key components include Kanthal A1 wire heating elements for longevity, a PID controller for precision, vacuum-formed ceramic fibre insulation for minimal heat loss, and a robust steel exterior to withstand daily laboratory or industrial use.
Q: How does the furnace ensure uniform temperature distribution?
A: The combination of double-walled chamber construction, well-designed airflow, and high-quality ceramic fibre insulation provides even heat across the entire 35-litre workspace, contributing to consistent treatment results.
