THE LARGEST VERTICAL VACUUM FURNACES DEDICATED FOR AIRCRAFT INDUSTRY SECO/WARWICK S.A.
Thermal insulation of the furnace is made of matte graphite. The heart of the furnace, is made of solid graphite. Graphite heating elements are located on the shaft furnace sidewall and ceiling. In order to increase the pumping efficiency of the furnace is equipped with a dual pump system with diffusion pumps. The furnace is equipped with an external heat exchanger with a blower. The cooling gas flows through the nozzles to the charge placed on the hearth and sidewall of the furnace chamber. Maximum cooling gas pressure is 5 bar abs. This heater is designed to work with the two gases: nitrogen and argon. There is also a closed loop water system delivered with the furnace.
Specification of the furnace:
- Working area: 2200x2500 mm dia,
- Maximum load weight: 2000 kg,
- Maximum operating temperature: 1300oC,
- Maximum operating pressure: 5.0 bar absolute,
- Cooling medium: nitrogen, argon
- Working vacuum: 10-5 mbar.
