Convection Oven Model：Hot Disk TCUs

The chamber has a chemically resistant stainless steel lining, and it is accessed from the front side via a left-hinged lever latch door. The sensor cable feedthrough is selectable either on the left side or the top side of the chamber via small circular wall openings having pushable stainless steel covers. The oven also comes in four versions with different maximum chamber temperature: 300°C; 400°C; 500°C; or 600°C. The temperature stability is ±0.2°C for the 300°C versions, and ±0.5°C for the other versions.

The convection oven is intended to be used with our bare sensors mounted in our sensor interface for high-temperature accessories, in combination with dedicated high-temperature sample holders. Kapton-insulated Hot Disk® or Hot Strip sensors can be used for chamber temperatures up to 300°C, while Mica-insulated Hot Disk® sensors must be used above 300°C. Measurements on powder samples are not suitable in this oven due to the running fan. For such scenarios, we recommend the use of our muffle furnace.

This fan furnace is automatically controlled via the Hot Disk Desktop App over RS232 communication. The Hot Disk Desktop App can be programmed to automatically perform a series of measurements with the Hot Disk instrument at multiple chamber temperatures.
