Construction and design
The oven has an electro-mechanically driven oven table construction that enables pressure-free and vibration-free movement. This reduces heat radiation to the user and ensures safe handling even at high temperatures. The double-walled housing design with rear ventilation ensures an exceptionally low outer wall temperature, which increases the safety and efficiency of the oven.
Heating and insulation
Heating on all sides of the cubic oven chambers ensures very good temperature uniformity. High-quality heating elements on all sides of the oven ensure free heat radiation into the oven chamber. The furnace insulation is made of high-quality aluminum oxide material with a very low thermal mass, which enables rapid heating and cooling. Similar to the Thermconcept elevator oven ELC 08/16, 1600°C, the ELC 08/14 offers precise and wear-free oven control via solid state relays or thyristors.
Certifications and standards
The Thermconcept ELC 08/14 elevator oven meets all relevant safety and quality standards, including CE marking. This ensures that the oven meets the highest safety and performance requirements.
