The BCF12-VRP and BCF13-VRP Chamber Furnaces are general-purpose laboratory furnaces designed for a wide range of firing and heat treatment applications. These versatile furnaces provide reliable performance for both routine and specialised laboratory processes. Standard chamber capacities range from 5 to 45 litres, with custom-built volumes available to suit specific operational requirements.

Key Features

• Two-sided ceramic fibre panel heating elements with wire spirals radiating freely from sinusoidal grooves, providing uniform and efficient heating.

• Durable steel outer casing finished in tough, attractive blue epoxy powder coating.

• Compact bench-mounted design for easy integration into laboratory workspaces.

• High-quality, low-thermal-mass insulation ensures rapid heat-up and cooling, as well as energy efficiency.

• Vertically lifting the door keeps hot surfaces safely out of reach of the operator.

• Elite PID controller offering eight programs with eight segments each; Eurotherm and other multi-segment controllers are also available.

• Type ‘N’ thermocouple for precise temperature measurement.

• A positive-break door safety switch isolates the heating elements when the door is open.

• Small ceramic chimney and hard ceramic hearth tile included as standard for safe exhaust handling and durability.

Optional Features

• Additional multi-segment, multi-program storage controllers.

• Powered exhaust and fan-assisted chimney systems.

• Temperature indicator and overtemperature protection system.

• Gas inlet with flowmeter for controlled atmosphere applications.

• Time switch for automated operations.

• Ceramic liners for chamber protection.

• Access or viewing port for monitoring processes.

• I-Tools communications software for data logging and system connectivity.
