1. TECHNICAL INFORMATION

1.1 Major features of Sintering furnace CMF-210, CMF-220, - 10 Steps program patterns- PID optimized control- Microwave 1000 watts output

Our typical microwave sintering furnaces operate at a proper GHz frequency with power output in the range of 1-2 KW. This features,

- Great energy efficiency- Faster sample heating- Improved material properties- Emission reduction- Wide range of potential applications

The sintering chamber consists of ceramic insulation housing (batch system).The primary function of the insulation is to preserve the heat generated in the work piece.The temperatures are monitored by optical sheathed thermocouples placed close to the surface of the sample.The system is equipped with stainless steel housing including max. temp. 1,600 deg C, air circulation, plastic door available and programmable controller with max. 10 program steps, control output indicator and exhaust device as well.There are three models for applications of ceramic materials, other industrial needs.

1.2 Technical dataWidth : 395mmHeight : 440mmlength : 520mmCasting : Steel/stainless steelFiring chamber capacity :Firing chamber temperature : 1600 deg. CChamber operating temp : 1500-1550.C

1.3 Electrical dataPower supply : 220V AC, 60Hz (50HZ option)Power output : MW 1000 wattsPower input : 1450 watts

2. SAFETY ADVICE FOR INSTALLATION

2.1 The earth plug with AC power plug should be connected to the grounding system in power

receptacle for prevention of system from any electric shock as well.2.2 The furnace must not be exposed the direct sunlight.2.3 Do not place any combustible objects near the furnace.2.4 Sensor Input/Temperature Measurement Thermocouple wire should be protected with its shielding tape or meshes for

any noise such as microwave.

3. PRECAUTION FOR SAMPLE CORE INSERTION

3.1 place sample core running with parrallel with thermocouples and keep distance(1-2 mm)

not to be close.
