Diffusion furnaces

Listing ID #4324010

Diffusion furnaces are designed for optimum temperature accuracy and stability. Enclosed in a unitized, rugged and thermally insulated cabinet structure, up to 4 heating elements are packaged for easy maintenance and extended service life.

Furnace Cabinet:

• Unitized structural steel assembly
• Hinged, locking and removable element access doors
• Thermally insulated enclosure paneling
• High temperature Urethane coating
• Easy-to-adjust element alignment supports
• Cabinet overtemperature interlock sensor
• Leveling pads and optional seismic brackets

Toxic Gas Scavenger:

• Stainless steel construction
• Vents gases and heat from process tube or chamber
• Indepently adjustable exhaust draw per tube-level
• Cantilever closure or manual door sealing per tube-level
• LPCVD flange and gas line fitting mounting scheme
• Differential pressure gauge to monitor exhaust draw

Air-to-water Heat Exchanger:

• Used to vent heated air from furnace cabinet top
• HVAC control of furnace room
• Water-cooled, high efficiency radiator
• Air baffle paneling to direct air flow through cabinet
• Exhaust fan module for air exhaust draw

Power Distribution:

• Located within base of furnace cabinet
• Encloses transformers, terminals and wire bussing
• Encloses temperature controls and contactors/breakers

• Easy accessibility to components
• Pull down panels for easy access to control modules
• EMO safety controls
• Reduncant overtemperature interlock per element zone
