The BSF/A Ashing Furnace is explicitly engineered for precision ashing applications, offering exceptional durability and performance for heavy sample loads and materials that risk contaminating traditional floor-mounted heating elements. Its robust chamber design and advanced fume-removal capabilities make it the ideal solution for laboratories and industrial environments processing foods, plastics, coal, and hydrocarbon-based materials.

Key Features

• Enhanced chamber heating with BSF models using slab-embedded heating elements mounted on two sides for uniform temperature distribution.

• Low-thermal-mass insulation ensures rapid heat-up and cool-down cycles, improving efficiency and workflow.

• Durable steel exterior, finished with a high-quality blue epoxy powder coating for long-lasting protection.

• Optimised ashing conditions with an integrated combustion feature and improved fume extraction for cleaner processing.

• User-safe vertical lift door keeps hot surfaces out of reach during operation.

• Safety-focused design featuring a positive-break door switch that cuts power when the door is open.

• Precision temperature control is delivered through a high-end microprocessor PID controller.

• Replaceable ceramic hearth tile for easy maintenance and extended furnace lifespan.

• Large integrated metal chimney supplied as standard for efficient exhaust management.

Available Options

• Powered exhaust system with enhanced chimney airflow.

• Four-sided heating elements for heavy loads or metal retorts.

• Temperature indicator and overtemperature protection.

• Multi-segment, multi-program storage controllers for advanced thermal processing.

• Gas inlet with flowmeter.

• Time switch for automated operation.

• I-Tools communication software for data logging and connectivity.
