This chamber furnace is designed explicitly for Volatile Matter (VM) analysis in full compliance with ISO 562 standards. Engineered for precise temperature control, rapid response times, and uniform heating, it ensures accurate, repeatable volatile matter determination in coal and coke testing laboratories.

The furnace delivers the fast heating rates required by ISO 562, making it ideal for routine laboratory testing, research applications, and industrial quality control environments where compliance and accuracy are critical.

Standard Features

• Maximum temperature: 1100°C

• Maximum operating temperature: 1050°C

• Chamber dimensions: 110 × 200 × 254 mm (H × W × D)

• Open spiral heating elements positioned in the chamber roof and beneath the hearth

• Low thermal mass insulation for rapid heating as required by ISO 562

• Chimney with airflow and convection restriction capability

• Three external thermocouple access points for temperature verification beneath crucibles

• Slab element design protects heating elements from carbon build-up and corrosive atmospheres

• Vertical lifting door keeps the hot face away from the operator during opening

• Door safety switch with positive break isolates power to heating elements when opened

• High-end microprocessor PID temperature controller for stable and precise control

Optional Features & Accessories
