MUFU Series — Laboratory Muffle Furnaces · 1200°C
High‑temperature muffle furnace
OVERVIEW
The MUFU series laboratory muffle furnaces are designed for high‑temperature applications such as ashing, heat treatment, and material analysis. They feature a maximum operating temperature of 1200°C and are available in 2, 7, 12, and 16 litre chamber volumes. The vacuum‑formed low thermal mass insulation ensures excellent energy efficiency and rapid heating/cooling cycles.
Equipped with PID temperature control, top‑mounted ceramic chimney (Series D models), and door locking mechanism for safe operation. The furnaces are built with embedded Fe‑Cr‑Al heating elements and a powder‑coated steel exterior, making them reliable tools for demanding laboratory environments.
High‑temperature muffle furnaces with 1200°C capability featuring vacuum‑formed ceramic fiber insulation, precise PID control, and multiple chamber sizes. MUFU series combines energy efficiency, fast heat‑up, and safe operation for ashing, calcination, and material testing.COLO.Science · Practical and robust equipment for everyday laboratory workflows.
