Laboratory melting furnace SC 8 with SiC rod heating for use with a customer crucible |
The laboratory melting furnace SC 8 was specially developed for melting glass in the laboratory. A customer crucible is entered into the furnace from the top. Glass is molten in the crucible. Heating is realized from two sides with powerful SiC rods. With this heating method a maximum furnace temperature of 1500 °C can be achieved. The very effective, multi-layer insulation with long-life lightweight refractory bricks inside the chamber guarantees low outside temperatures even if the furnace is in continuously used.
