Thermolyne FB1315M Muffle Furnace, Max. Temp. 2012F, 1.3L

Thermolyne FB1315M Muffle Furnace, Max. Temp. 2012F, 1.3L

The Thermolyne Muffle Furnace is a versatile, compact benchtop furnace designed for ashing, ignition tests, gravimetric analyses, and volatile matter determinations. It is ideal for testing soils, aggregates, and cement in construction materials. Built with rugged components and high-quality materials, this furnace ensures durability and long service life.

With a maximum temperature range of 212–2,012°F (100–1,100°C) and a chamber capacity of 0.04 ft³ (1.3L), this furnace delivers reliable performance. Its advanced features include energy-efficient ceramic fiber insulation for rapid heating, embedded heating elements on the sides and top for uniform temperature distribution, and a drop-down door that doubles as a loading shelf.

The digital control system allows easy temperature monitoring, displaying actual chamber temperature by default and switching to set-point temperature when the set button is pressed. The furnace also includes critical safety features such as a door safety switch that cuts power to the heating elements when the door is opened, thermocouple break protection, and a 0.38in (9.5mm) rear chamber port for external temperature monitoring.

Key Features:

• Embedded heating elements for consistent temperature uniformity.
• Durable, high-quality construction for extended service life.
• Energy-saving ceramic fiber insulation for faster heat-up.
• Safety interlock door switch for user protection.
• Drop-down door that serves as a loading platform.

Each unit comes with a single set-point controller, thermocouple, power cord, and hearth plate to protect the furnace bottom. Note that the center two-thirds of the chamber is the most temperature-uniform zone due to the strategic placement of heating elements. Whether for laboratory analysis or construction material testing, this furnace is designed to deliver reliable, efficient performance.

Accessories:

• Crucible Tongs to safely remove beakers and other labware from the furnace
• Porcelain Crucibles used for loss-on-ignition testing of cement, fly ash, and soils and are available in 10, 30, or 45mL
• Heat Resistant Gloves provide additional operator protection from high temperatures when placing or removing items inside the furnace
