SHEL LAB vacuum ovens provide exceptional capabilities for fast and gentle drying of heat sensitive materials. They prevent residue accumulation on products and also allow safe drying of materials at lower temperatures than typically required when using convection ovens. These units feature a radiant heating system that optimizes chamber space and provides excellent heat transfer and temperature uniformity. All SHEL LAB vacuum ovens are built with stainless steel chambers that are easy to clean and have exceptional durability.
The doors on these units have positive latch handles with spring-loaded glass to facilitate a good vacuum seal without hinge binds that shorten the gasket life. The tempered glass viewing window allows for safe, continuous monitoring of samples. A selection of gaskets (for specific applications) and a small bench top footprint increase the versatility of these ovens. The SHEL LAB Vacuum Ovens are equipped with silicone gaskets. While these gaskets resist a wide variety of temperatures and pressures, they can breakdown in the presence of solvents and acids. For solvent applications, we recommend using Buna gaskets. For acidic applications, we recommend using Fluorosilicone or Viton® gaskets.
The SHEL LAB economy series of vacuum ovens are outstanding in any application.
Please note that this vacuum oven does not include a pump or related accessories.
