Vacuum Furnace FVA-17

Product catalog summary
Description: The Labotemp Vacuum Furnace FVA-17 is a high-capacity laboratory furnace designed for precision vacuum heat treatment, sintering, and high-temperature material processing up to 1400°C. It features a 45L chamber, SiC rod heating elements, and a Shimaden S-type controller for accurate temperature regulation. The furnace supports vacuum and inert gas operations with an efficient pump setup and water-cooling protection.
Specifications: The FVA-17 model has a volume of 45L, a maximum temperature of 1400°C, and a working temperature of 1350°C. It requires a 380V, 3-phase power supply and has a power rating of 14kW. The chamber size is 300×500×300 mm, and it includes a Shimaden multi-segment programmable temperature controller. Cooling is required, with an industrial chiller of ≥3.3 kW and a flow of ≥1.5 m³/h. The vacuum level reaches 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ Torr with a KT400 diffusion pump, rotary, and roots pump.
Features: The furnace offers deep vacuum capability with a 3-stage pump system, programmable temperature control, inert-gas compatibility, and an efficient water-cooling system. It includes a digital vacuum gauge for real-time monitoring and optional PC data logging via RS485/USB.
Applications: The FVA-17 is suitable for vacuum brazing, ceramic sintering, metal heat treatment, powder metallurgy, crystal growth, degassing, and research and material development.
Optional Accessories: High vacuum pump packages, cooling equipment, control and software options, and safety and maintenance kits are available.
