The Apex AX range of 250°C laboratory ovens comprises three bench-top sized models equipped with the R38 digital PID temperature controller.

Laboratory ovens of the Peak series 300°C are available as both PF fan convection and PN natural convection models. Fan convection provides greater temperature uniformity and faster recovery rates than natural convection.

The high temperature laboratory oven range LHT comprise three sizes of bench mounted units, each available with maximum operating temperatures of 400°C, 500°C and 600°C.

These ovens are frequently used for annealing thermo-luminescent dosimeters (TLD) that have been used to measure exposure to ionising radiation. The TLD ovens are designed to heat to 400 °C, cooling rapidly to ambient temperature using forced air cooling. This rapid cycling capability is also suitable for other small scale tempering and annealing applications.

The CR Series of 250 °C clean room ovens comprises nine standard models in sizes from the 30 litre model to the 1790 litre model which, once processed through a customer`s standard material entry regime, are suitable for operation within an ISO 14644-1 Class 5 environment*. All sources of particulate contamination are fully sealed. Their easily cleaned stainless steel interiors and gloss white epoxy exteriors prevent the shedding of particulate contamination.

The HTCR Series of clean room ovens comprises sixteen standard models with five sizes between 28 and 1000 litres available with maximum temperatures of 400°C, 500°C and 600°C. Once processed through a customer`s standard material entry regime HTCR Ovens are suitable for operation within an ISO 14644-1 Class 6 environment*. Optionally HTCR ovens can be supplied for operation within an ISO 14644-1 Class 5 environment*. Federal Standard 209E Class 1000 was superseded in 2001 by ISO 14644-1 Class 6 Federal Standard 209E Class 100 was superseded in 2001 by ISO 14644-1 Class 5.

The HTMA series is a range of modified atmosphere high temperature ovens for use with inert atmospheres up to 700°C. Separate flow controls for purge and process gases mean that once the chamber has been purged of atmospheric air process gas can be used with lower flow rates. Switching between purge and process gases can either be done manually or by adding the option of an automatic programmable control system. Oxygen levels down to 50 ppm are achievable.

The ELF laboratory furnaces comprise 3 bench mounted models designed for light duty and general use up to 1100 °C. These laboratory furnaces have a simple drop down door and a top mounted ceramic chimney. The combination of low thermal mass insulation and free radiating wire elements embedded in the chamber sides provide efficient heating.

The CWF range of general purpose laboratory chamber furnaces is bench mounted. Models are available in five sizes with a maximum operating temperature up to 1300 °C. The airflow in the CWF-B furnaces is enhanced by the addition of air inlet holes in the door and a tall chimney which rapidly removes the fumes from the furnace.

The RWF rapid wire chamber furnaces are available in three chamber sizes with maximum operating temperatures of 1100 °C or 1200 °C. The free radiating wire elements in combination with low thermal mass insulation are designed to provide rapid thermal response within the chamber
