The TMS UTFC range of universal tube furnaces can be used in a vertical or horizontal position and have three separate heating zones to ensure good uniformity across the work piece.

They are often used by laboratories for tensile testing of materials, as creep-test furnaces or stress rupture test furnaces.

In most cases they are suitable for replacing units of other makes, such as Mayes, Dennison, etc.

On the side of the casing is a terminal box for connecting to the elements and earthing the unit. Most models have a small tube for a thermocouple embedded in the heating elements for over-temperature protection (which when used with the proper equipment ensures the elements don’t over-heat). Therefore the units can last much longer and are less likely to fail during a test. The units have either three or four M10 threaded mounted rods on a PCD of 203mm ±3mm.

There is a choice of 4 standard models, these include 3 tube diameters and 3 lengths. Control systems are sold separately, please contact us for more details.

Max Continous Temperature: 1000°C
Max Short Term Temperature: 1100°C (element over-temperature protection system is recommended)
Power Rating: 1kW per zone (3kW total at 240Vac)
Supply Voltage: 240Vac 50Hz

Asynt Ltd offer a wide range in laboratory equipment from benchtop to pilot scale. Our versatile DrySyn heating blocks provide excellent thermal performance without the associated risks of using standard oil-based systems and, when teamed with the Asynt CondenSyn air-condenser, will not only help improve sustainability but will also save you money.

Other areas we cover include Electrochemistry, photochemistry, flow chemistry, parallel synthesis, pressure reactors, evaporation and more. We offer off-the-shelf solutions as well as fully customisable systems: such as our ReactoMate jacketed vessels which can scale up from 100 mL to 100 L.

Asynt are committed to investing in new technologies that respond to the real demands of industry and academia, improving efficiency, sustainability and safety.

Asynt acquired flow chemistry specialists, Uniqsis, in 2024 and have incorporated this highly-respected range of apparatus into the Asynt catalogue where it compliments the existing innovative flow and photochemistry solutions.
