1800°C Tube Furnace | DFH-2, DFH-3 & DFH-4

The DFH-2, DFH-3 and DFH-4 1800°C tube furnaces support ultra-high-temperature sintering, atmosphere heating and heat treatment of ceramic, metal, electronic and powder materials. A 16-step programmable controller provides ramp-up and ramp-down profiles, with S.C.R. phase control, a Type B thermocouple and molybdenum disilicide heating elements. Select a model based on sample size, tube diameter, heated-zone length, target temperature, hold time, atmosphere and site power.

1800°C Tube Furnace

The DFH-2, DFH-3 and DFH-4 tube furnaces rated to 1800°C are designed for ultra-high-temperature applications involving ceramic, metal, electronic and powder materials, including sintering, atmosphere heating, heat treatment, R&D testing and quality inspection. The 16-step programmable controller supports ramp-up and ramp-down profiles, with S.C.R. phase control, a Type B thermocouple and molybdenum disilicide heating elements. Select a model based on sample size, tube inner diameter, heated-zone length, target temperature, hold time, atmosphere requirements and available site power.

Up to 1800°C tube furnace

The typical operating range is 1650°C–1800°C for sintering, heat treatment, atmosphere heating and ultra-high-temperature testing.

16-step program control

The 16-step programmable controller supports ramp profiles for experiments requiring staged heating, holding or cooling.

Molybdenum disilicide elements

Molybdenum disilicide heating elements work with a Type B thermocouple and S.C.R. phase control for 1800°C-class tube furnace applications.

How to select an 1800°C tube furnace

Consider sample size, tube inner diameter, heated-zone length, batch quantity, target temperature, hold time, gas introduction or atmosphere control, ramp profile, site power and available space. DFH-2 suits smaller tubes and samples; DFH-3 suits medium samples and longer heated zones; DFH-4 suits larger tubes or samples. Confirm the final model against the sample, test objective and quality-control process.

Applications and product features

Suitable for: Ceramic, metal, electronic and powder materials; research institutes, school laboratories and factory processes; quality inspection, atmosphere heating, sintering and general ultra-high-temperature heat treatment.

Features: A 16-step programmable controller supports ramp profiles. S.C.R. phase control, a Type B thermocouple and molybdenum disilicide elements support material testing and heat treatment requiring tube furnace temperatures up to 1800°C.

Customization: Heated-zone length can be evaluated for customization. For special tube dimensions, gas flowmeters, piping, vacuum or controlled-atmosphere requirements, provide sample and process details for review.

Frequently asked questions

Q1: How do I choose between DFH-2, DFH-3 and DFH-4?

Compare tube inner diameter, heated length, sample size and batch quantity. DFH-2 has a 55mm ID x 200mm tube for smaller samples; DFH-3 has an 80mm ID x 300mm tube for medium samples; DFH-4 has a 110mm ID x 400mm tube for larger diameters or longer samples. Confirm the model against your sample and workflow.

Q2: What applications suit an 1800°C tube furnace?

Applications include ceramic sintering, metal heat treatment, powder processing, high-temperature testing of electronic materials, atmosphere heating, R&D and quality inspection. Suitability depends on material, target temperature, atmosphere and process time.

Q3: Should I choose a 1600°C or 1800°C tube furnace?

For typical operating temperatures around 1400°C, consider the 1600°C model. For higher-temperature sintering, special ceramics or powders, or ultra-high-temperature heat-treatment tests, evaluate the 1800°C model. Confirm based on the sample and process.

Q4: Can the heated-zone length be customized?

A specified heated-zone length can be evaluated. Provide the required length, sample size, tube diameter, target temperature and atmosphere; final availability depends on model and supply version.

Q5: What information should I provide when requesting a quote?

Provide sample material, dimensions and weight; required tube diameter and heated-zone length; typical and maximum temperatures; hold time; gas introduction needs; ramp profile; site power and installation space.

Specifications are compiled from current product information. Confirm tube dimensions, heated-zone length, controls, power, gas piping and supply version for the selected model and application.
