Vertical Tube Furnace for Testing Small Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (D20 mm, 1000°C, SOFC) - OTF-1200X-S-VT-C4

OTF1200XSVTC4 is a vertical tube furnace with a separated 4-channel gas flow and precision temperature station, which is designed for testing a small fuel cell ( 20 mm diameter up to 800ºC to develop new generation fuel cell material quickly and cost-effectively.

Flanges & Tubes   ( Fuel Cell Fixture)	Φ20 mm small fuel cell ( customer provided) will be placed between tubes and flanges on the top and bottom  ( Pic. left ) Two tube sets consist of a dual-layer structure (Pic. 1)  Outside tube: Alumina  20 OD X 16 ID x 260 L (mm) x 2 sets Inside tube:     Quartz:  14 OD X 10 ID x 300 L  (mm) x 2 sets Two flanges are connected to the tube sets with ports of the gas inlet and outlet and PTFE wires sealed top (Pic. 2) The tube set will be fixed on the frame of the furnace and apply pressure to a fuel cell. (Pic. 3) The included high-temperature adhesive will apply the gap between two tubes to ensure gas flow with air-tight. (Pic. 4)    Pic. 1   Pic. 2 Pi. 3 Pic. 4
