Compact Levitation Cold Crucible Vacuum Melting Furnace10KW, 5g Max.) - FMF-10

FMF-10 is a compact Vacuum Float-Melting System for exploring new generation magnetic alloy and metallic materials. The system uses a 10KW high-frequency induction heater to make metallic sample 5g max) melting by magnetic vortex within a special designed water-cold copper crucible placed inside a vacuum-sealed quartz tube. Therefore, it can produce extra high purity metallic alloy without any contamination.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Induction Heater	Working Voltage: 220VAC three phases) 50/ 60 Hz.  Working Current: 5-25 Amp (30A breaker required) Output Frequency: 50-300 kHz Adjustable Max. Output Power: 10KW Required Water Flowrate: >16 L/min Two Unit: the Power control unit is separated with the induction heating unit

Optional Recirculating Water Chiller and Gas required	If you don't have water cooling line, please consider our recirculating water chiller 58L/min at extra cost. High purity Argon gas ( > 5N) tank with pressure regulator is required, but not included. Click here to learn more about the installation of a gas regulator. ( please click the picture below right to order a correct gas regulator )
Quartz Tube & Vacuum Flange	One quartz tube included: 32 mm(OD) x 28 mm(ID) x 160 mm(L One pair of Vacuum Flanges with double high-temperature silicone O-rings Max. Vacuum Pressure: 10-2 torr by the mechanical pump (included) 10-5 torr by molecular pump Bottom flange is controlled by an electric motor for easy sample loading and unloading
Vacuum Pump	One two-stage mechanical pump with exhaust filter is included KF25 adapter, bellow, and valve are included for immediate use The vacuum pump is integrated into the movable steel case
Application Notes	The Melting System are designed for using under vacuum and low pressure < 0.02 MPa / 0.2 Bar/ 3 PSI  Attention: A pressure regulator must be installed on your input gas tank and have the output gas pressure set below 3 PSI with the gas maintained in a continuous flowing condition. Gas build-up with pressure levels exceeding over 3 PSI may cause irreversible damage to the furnace chamber. Never heat the furnace while the gas release valve is closed and a positive pressure condition exists within the furnace chamber.  The flow rate for gases should be limited to < 200 SCCM ( or 200ml/min )  WARNING Read the manual carefully. Monitor and control the inside pressure of the reaction vessel at all time during operation. Otherwise, failure of operation may result in irreparable damage.
Compliance	NRTL or CSA Certification is available upon request at extra cost
