The BT 500/13 Shaft Furnace from the BT series has a volume of 500 litres and is suitable for temperatures up to 1300°C.
This series combines 5-side heating in a robust chamber furnace construction with all the advantages of a toploader. The high-quality insulation structure and the even temperature distribution make the shaft furnace suitable for applications where as many goods as possible must be placed and processed in one firing process. The shaft furnace offers an excellent overview during charging.
The in-frame ventilated lid and the use of galvanized steel sheet in the furnace casing provide effective protection against corrosion. Another feature of this design is the carefully manufactured furnace lid. It is provided with a gas pressure spring that allows easy opening of the lid. KANTHAL heating elements have been calculated with minimal surface load to minimise wear and to ensure a long service life.
The housing consists of a torsion-resistant welded construction. Each furnace is manufactured by hand and leaves the factory after undergoing extensive quality controls.
The high-quality light-grey RAL 7035 textured coating protects the furnace body and steel construction.
The lid comprises a robust lid hinge and a gas pressure spring allows for easy lid opening.
