Lindberg/Blue M™ Moldatherm™ Box Furnaces

Description

Microprocessor-Based Control

• Selectable self-tuning feature sets best control parameters for the thermal process
• PID control (proportional, integral, derivative) prevents overshoot
• Main power ON/OFF switch on control panel
• Controlled heat-up rate eliminates thermal shock to materials
• Quick heat-up and cool-down rates
• Adjustable high-limit overtemperature protection
• Simultaneous LED display of actual temperature vs. setpoint
• Can be configured to display temperature in either °C or °F

Construction

• Unique double wall minimizes exterior surface temperatures for operator safety and energy efficiency
• Side-hinge door for convenient operation and full chamber access
• Long-life Type K thermocouple
• Air vent (1 in. dia., top) and air inlet (0.375 in. dia., rear) for inert atmosphere exchange; will experience some leakage at door
• Removable and replaceable Moldatherm hearth plate supports load and prevents damage due to spillage
• Energy-efficient Moldatherm insulation with embedded heating elements
• Safety door switch to interrupt power to heating element when door is opened; protects heating element and minimizes exposure to end-user

Digital, Single-Setpoint Controller

• Single segment, single setpoint, one ramp to setpoint

Digital Single-Program, Multiple-Segment Programmable Controller

• Single program with multiple segments for ramp (up and down) and dwell (timed hold) temperature control
