5" Rotary Tube Furnace up to 1200°C with Automatic Feeding & Receiving System - OTF1200XIIIR5

SKU: otf1200xiiir5-af

Price: RFQ

Specifications

The OTF1200XIIIR5-AF is a 5" rotary CVD tube furnace with three heating zones with Max. working temperature of 1200oC and Automatic Feeding & Receiving System. The furnace is especially good for preparing Li-Ion battery cathode and Anode materials with conductive coating, such as LiFePO3, LiMnNiO3, Si/C, etc. The receiving tank will accept fired powder without exposing the material to air. This rotary furnace has a larger tube diameter (5"OD) combined with a longer and more uniform heating area (three zones, 600mm overall length).

Working Voltage
  •  208 - 240 VAC single phase, 5 kW (30 A Breaker required)
Furnace Construction
  • Double shell casing with three cooling fans
  • High purity Alumina fibrous insulation for max. energy efficiency
  • DC Gear motor drives quartz tube with variable speed 0 - 10 RPM
  • The furnace can be electrically tilted up to 20° 
  • The split cover enables faster cooling and easy operation.
Automatic
Feeding
Furnace
  • The automatic powder feeder is mounted on the tiltable furnace via a vacuum-sealed swivel assembly. (Pic 1)
  • The proper connection ensures a uniform feeding rate and the tube rotation undisturbed under a controlled atmosphere. (Pic 2-3)
  • The feed rate is adjustable by the potentiometer knob, 97cm^3/min max.
  • One stainless steel tank ( 1 Liter Capacity ) is installed on the other end of the processing tube to gather the fired powder without exposure to air. 
  • A furnace without an automatic feeding & receiving system is available, please select from the option bar. (Pic 5)
                       
Automatic Receiving System
  • One stainless steel tank (1L Capacity) for powder collection.
  • A KF40 butterfly valve is designed to keep system hermetically during collection tank loading and unloading
  • One gas outlet with 1/4" compression gas fitting
  • One thermocouple port with a 1/4" quick-connect.
  • KF 25 port for vacuum generation

Application Notes
  • The concept of continuous powder feeding and processing can be realized by the use of Magnetic Fluid Sealed Swivel Coupling with a Volumetric Feeder and Rotary Furnace. Please view the assembling approach diagram and video below.  
  • For CVD coating, you may choose our multi-channel Gas delivery system as Pic below right     

         

         

 

Warnings
  • The tube furnaces with quartz tubes are designed for use under vacuum and low pressure < 0.2 bar / 3 psi
  • Attention: A two-stage pressure regulator must be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the pressure to below 3 PSI for safe operation. Click here to learn about the installation of a gas regulator.
  • Vacuum limit definition for all quartz tube furnaces: * Vacuum pressures may only be safely used up to 1000°C
