ABF Afterburner Ashing Furnace

Description

The ABF Afterburner Ashing Furnace from Verder Scientific is designed for laboratory processes that involve the thermal decomposition of materials, particularly those that produce significant smoke during combustion. It operates at a maximum temperature of 800°C and is suitable for applications such as ashing, loss on ignition testing, combustion studies, sterilisation, thermal debinding, and sublimation. The unit features silicon carbide shielded wire wound heating elements for durability and consistent heat distribution. It includes a two-tier basket system with a dedicated loading tray and handle for the safe placement and retrieval of samples. Available options enhance functionality and safety, including a viewport (available glazed or unglazed), cascade control for precise temperature management, digital over-temperature protection, an audible alarm, and a thermocouple calibration port that can be specified as sheathed or unsheathed. With a noted capacity of 28, this furnace is configured for handling larger sample volumes or materials with high smoke output.
