The HVTT high vacuum tube furnaces at 1500 °C are available with two work tube diameters.
These high vacuum furnaces are often the starting point for additional customisation such as automated control of gate valves, gas purge, back-fill systems and co-ordinated control of roughing pump with the turbo-molecular high vacuum pump.
