1100C Three Zone Super-Alloy High Pressure Tube Furnace w/ Gas Flow Control - OTF-1200X-HP-III-80-GF

Please view " Isotropic round-wire multifilament cuprate superconductor for generation of magnetic fields above 30 TMat-2014-13-4-Larbalestier-Isotropic round-wire " published by NATURE MATERIAL 3887, 9 MARCH 2014, in which an MTI High-Pressure furnace was used. OTF-1200X-HP-III-80-GF is a high-pressure tube furnace with three heating zones and gas flow control system as well as a protective frame. The processing tube is made of Ni-based superalloy with 50 mm ID, which can be heated to max.1100°C under high-pressure of both oxygen and inert gases with controlled flow rate. The furnace originally is designed for processing Fe-based superconductive material, also can be used for exploring new generation oxide ceramic as a compact HIP.

Thermocouple	Omega 3mm OD K Type with high-temperature (220°C) connector
Process Vessel & Safety Frame	The pressure vessel is made of Nickel-based superalloy GH747 (Click to download GH747 nickel-based alloy datasheet) Vessel size: OD 85 x ID 50 x Length 1000 (mm)  The pressure vessel is located inside a steel frame to avoid flange flying out by accident ( see picture below ) and ensure safe operation. Optional: torque wrench is available here to avoid over-tighten the flange bolts. Warning: Never put a sample inside tube directly without crucible or isolated foil to avoid sample react with tube alloy.
Working Pressure vs. Working Temperature	140 Bar max. at 800°C 80 Bar max. at 900°C 40 Bar max. at 1000°C 2.5 Bar max. at 1100°C 1.2 Bar Max. at 1150 °C Never heat up above 1200°C
Working Gases	Inert gas and oxygen No hydrogen or any flammable gas
Flange and Fitting	Two CF type flanges are weld with female 1/4"NPT fitting to connect the high-pressure tube 2 pcs Copper o-rings are included ( spare copper O-ring is available as consumable ) One pair of water cooling ring, made of copper tube, is installed on two ends of the tube ( > 16 liters/min water flow is required) One 16L/min flow rate recirculating water chiller is included as a cooling system to save water.
Gas Flow System	The gas control system is built in a heavy-duty mobile table under furnace and safety frame   Three pressure sensors and digital displays are installed to monitor furnace pressure for gas inlet, inside tube and gas flow end separately  One high-pressure mass flow controller is a built-in gas outlet to control gas flow rate with max. 10Mpa working pressure and 500 MCC flow rate laptop via included software for remote monitoring and controlling Three adjustable pressure release valves are installed to ensure safety. The valve will release gas when the pressure reaches the setting point.
Compliance and Warranty	CE certified NRTL, CSA, and ASME certification are available upon request at an extra cost. One-year limited warranty for lifetime support
Application Notes	Hytort Application, named Hydroretorting of Shale Oil is a process developed by IGT to double the yield of shale oil and hydrocarbon gases. MTI High-Pressure furnaces with Ni-based superalloy tube is an ideal tool for conducting related experiments. Please click underlined to view the research paper.
Safety Notes	Ni-based Superalloy ( Waspaloy or equivalent) is a reliable processing tube that can be used under high temperature and high pressure. It has excellent ductility and tensile property so only creep deformation happens under an overpressure destruction test and is followed by a crack formed (usually at the hot zone at the center of the tube) to release the pressure. Brittle fracture won’t happen in the overpressure destruction test which means no tube explosion will happen under overpressure of inert gas or safe gas or under other accidents causing overpressure of inert gas or safe gas. The pics show a Ni-based Super-alloy processing tube under an overpressure test Warning Never put a sample inside the tube directly without a crucible or isolated foil   For the use of flammable, toxic, or corrosive gases, you must contact the MTI engineering group for a consultation to know all the prerequisites and precautionary measures. A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Please click here to learn how to install the gas regulator.
Optional Accessories	To measure the electric properties of thermoelectric ceramics under high pressure & temperature conditions, please order an alumina testing fixture and high-pressure electrical feedthrough (10Mpa Max.) with the furnace (additional fee will apply).
