Muffle Furnaces up to 1100 °C or 1200 °C
The Nabertherm L, LE, and LT series are the ultimate all-around muffle furnaces for daily lab use. “Made in Germany” quality, they deliver exceptional reliability and precise temperature control up to 1100 °C or 1200 °C.
Ideal for ashing, sintering, and material testing. Available with flap or lift doors.
The Nabertherm L, LE, and LT series muffle furnaces are the global benchmark for daily, rugged laboratory use. These models represent the pinnacle of “Made in Germany” engineering, combining advanced design, long service life, and exceptional reliability. Whether for ashing polymers and rubber, determining filler content, or performing heat treatments, these furnaces deliver precise and repeatable results.
Engineered for performance, the furnaces feature heating from two sides via robust ceramic heating plates. For larger models (L 24/11 and up), heating is provided from three sides to ensure optimal temperature uniformity. These integral heating elements are safeguarded from fumes and splashing and are easy to replace, guaranteeing a long service life.
Standard Equipment:
- “Made in Germany” Quality: Engineered and manufactured by Nabertherm in Lilienthal, Germany.
- High Tmax: Maximum temperature of 1100 °C or 1200 °C.
- Door Options: Available with a robust flap door (L models) that can be used as a work platform, or a space-saving lift door (LT models) with the hot surface facing away from the operator.
- Safety Insulation: Uses only high-quality, non-categorized fiber insulation (RCF-free), which is not classified as carcinogenic.
- High Performance: Achieves excellent temperature uniformity of +/– 5 K at temperatures above 800 °C.
- Advanced Controller: Standard B510 controller with a clear, color touch-screen, 5 programs, 4 segments, and USB interface. (Note: The L 1/12 model comes with the R7 controller).
- Durable Construction: Dual-shell housing made of textured stainless steel sheets, which provides high stability and low external surface temperatures.
- Precision Thermocouple: Uses a reliable Type N thermocouple (for 1100 °C models) or Type S thermocouple (for 1200 °C models).
- Venting System: Includes an adjustable air inlet in the door and an exhaust air outlet in the rear wall of the furnace.
- Quiet Operation: Uses solid-state relays for low-noise heating operations.
- Data Recording: Includes NTLog Basic for recording process data via a standard USB flash drive, enabling easy quality control and documentation.
Customize your Nabertherm muffle furnace to perfectly match your laboratory’s specific processes with a wide range of optional “Made in Germany” equipment.
Available Options & Accessories:
- Exhaust & Venting: Upgrade your ventilation with an exhaust chimney, a chimney with an integrated fan, or a catalytic converter for processing materials that produce strong odors or fumes. (Note: not available for L 1 models).
- Over-Temperature Limiter: A crucial safety feature for unattended operation. Provides a second, adjustable cutout temperature (thermal protection class 2) to protect the furnace and your valuable load.
- Protective Gas Connection: A connection in the rear wall for purging the furnace with non-flammable protective or reactive gases. (Note: This option is not gas-tight and cannot be combined with the chimney options).
- Gas Supply Systems: We offer complete manual or fully automatic gas supply and dosing systems.
- Observation Hole: An optional viewing port in the furnace door for observing the charge.
- Charging Racks: For models L(T) 9/11 and larger, multi-level charging racks with perforated trays are available to efficiently load multiple samples at once.
- Process Control Software: Integrate your furnace with the powerful VCD software package or Controltherm MV software for comprehensive, PC-based process control, monitoring, and documentation.
