Ashing furnace for complete combustion
In laboratories and industrial settings where precise combustion of samples is critical, traditional methods may fall short. Situations requiring ISO and ASTM compliance standards for sample analysis, such as in coal or food industries, pose challenges for achieving uniform and complete combustion.
Ensure precise and compliant ashing processes
The AAF 11/3 and AAF 11/7 furnaces by Carbolite Gero are designed specifically for optimum ashing conditions essential for complete sample combustion. These furnaces maintain consistent operation with a maximum operating temperature of 1100 °C. The single ramp controller along with a process timer offers controlled and accurate heating. The system features a preheated air flow, enhancing combustion uniformity and efficiency. Direct compliance with ISO 1171:2010, ASTM D3174-04:2010, and ASTM D4422 standards makes these furnaces suitable for diverse applications in ashing foods, plastics, and hydrocarbon materials. Additionally, the air inlet and tall chimney ensure a steady airflow rate, while the four-sided heating provides a uniform temperature gradient within the chamber. Wire elements are shielded by a durable alumina-based liner, extending equipment lifespan and ensuring robust performance.
