CHAMBER FURNACES - FAQ

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CHAMBER FURNACE, BOX FURNACE AND MUFFLE FURNACE?

The terms, chamber furnace, box furnace and muffle furnace, are interchangeable and can all be used to describe the same furnace, typically with a cubic or box shaped chamber. Traditionally a muffle furnace is a rectangular ceramic tube with a wire heating element wound around the outside wrapped in thermal insulation. Muffle furnaces of this construction are typically deep compared to their height and width.

WHAT SHOULD I CONSIDER WHEN PURCHASING A CHAMBER FURNACE?

When buying a chamber furnace, you should consider the required volume, the maximum temperature, and the temperature uniformity required. It is important to consider the application; for example, if the main purpose is the ashing of samples, it would be beneficial to consider purchasing a chamber furnace with design features specific for that application. rectangular ceramic tube with a wire heating element wound around the outside wrapped in thermal insulation. Muffle furnaces of this construction are typically deep compared to their height and width.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LABORATORY AND INDUSTRIAL CHAMBER FURNACE?

In principle, the difference between a laboratory chamber furnace and an industrial chamber furnace is the size. Industrial furnaces tend to process larger batches of material, whereas laboratory furnaces are typically used to process smaller samples. Industrial chamber furnaces have a more robust construction in order to withstand the demands of production facilities.
