Description

The Thermcraft XST 3‑Zone Split Tube Furnace provides precise thermal control across longer tube lengths—ideal for gradient heating, ramp-soak transitions, or processes needing flat thermal zones. Its hinged split‑body design allows easy access for tube changes, accepting tubes up to 6″ (152 mm) OD.

Using vacuum-formed ceramic fiber heating with embedded wire, it fills heated zones of 18″, 24″, or 36″, achieving tight uniformity: ±1 °C over 3″, ±5 °C over 8″, and extended 90% consistency across full length in 3‑zone models.

Equipped with Thermcraft’s SmartControl touchscreen PID control, the furnace delivers user-friendly profile programming, data-logging, Ethernet/RS‑232/485 connectivity, and optional Eurotherm control enhancement. Safety features include independent over‑temperature protection and interlock when opening the split body.

Fully assembled and plug-and-play ready, this furnace ships freight and supports both horizontal and vertical operation.
