AZA 1066 MUFFLE FURNACE

Description

Muffle Furnace

The Azalab Muffle Furnace is a compact, high-efficiency heating solution designed for labs, industrial testing, and thermal treatment applications requiring consistent temperatures up to 950°C. Engineered for precision, safety, and energy efficiency, this furnace features a lightweight rectangular muffle chamber lined with high-temperature ceramic wool insulation—an advanced alternative to conventional brick insulation.

The outer body is crafted from double-walled thick P.C.R.C. sheets, reinforced at the bottom with perforated shielding for ventilation and strength. It is finished in durable stove enamel or powder coating, ensuring corrosion resistance and a long service life.AZA

Heating is provided by Kanthal A-1 wire elements, wound securely within the chamber. These are supported by ceramic backing insulation, minimizing energy loss and achieving stable temperature performance. The unit includes a manual energy regulator dial (0–100 scale), which controls the current flow into the furnace. The dial does not indicate temperature but allows precise regulation of power, with pilot lamps indicating operational status.

The system includes all essential accessories:

• Pyrometer

• Thermocouples

• Thermal fuse

• Lever & main power lead with plug

It operates on 230V A.C., making it suitable for most laboratory and industrial setups.

Optional Upgrades

1. Digital Temperature Controller – Replaces analog regulator & pyrometer

2. PID Temperature Controller – For highly precise thermal control (extra cost)

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between the energy regulator and digital controller?
The energy regulator controls current flow without displaying temperature. A digital controller offers precise temperature monitoring and control.

Q2: Can I upgrade later to PID control?
Yes. The unit is compatible with PID controller upgrades, available at additional cost.

Q3: Is ceramic wool safer than brick insulation?
Yes, it provides better thermal retention, faster heat-up, and a lighter build, improving energy efficiency and safety.

Q4: What is the accuracy of temperature control?
With a digital or PID controller, temperature accuracy is typically within ±1°C.

Q5: Can this furnace be used for ash content testing?
Absolutely. It’s well-suited for ashing, ignition loss, and similar high-temperature applications.
