Description

The Thermo Scientific Lindberg/Blue M BF51732C Muffle Furnace is a high-performance solution for laboratories requiring precise thermal processing. With a 17-liter chamber and a maximum temperature of 1200°C, this muffle furnace is optimized for ashing, annealing, and gravimetric analysis. Its light gauge overbend (LGO) heating elements provide rapid heat-up, while Moldatherm insulation ensures energy efficiency and uniform temperature distribution. The programmable controller supports multi-segment profiles, enabling complex thermal cycles with pinpoint accuracy. Safety features include over-temperature protection, making this furnace ideal for demanding lab environments.

  • Patented LGO (light gauge overbend) heating elements with Moldatherm insulation for efficient and economical transfer of heat to chamber, with low exterior temperatures
  • Variable heat-up rate eliminates thermal shock to materials with quick heat-up and cool-down rates
  • Vertical Lift Door
  • Air vent (1" dia., top) and air inlet (0.375" dia., rear) for inert atmosphere exchange. May experience some leakage at door
  • Self-tuning, digital instrumentation for precise temperature setpoint and display
  • Platinel II® thermocouple for long-term stability
  • Main power on/off switch on control panel; control panel designed for easy maintenance access
  • Safety door switch to interrupt power to heating element when door is opened; protects heating elements and minimizes exposure to end-user
  • Removable shelves for versatility; includes 1 two-part shelf, center position
  • Moldatherm hearthplate supports load and prevents damage due to spillage
