Name: Grieve Industrial Oven Model NB-350

Application: It provides 7 cubic feet of work space at temperatures to 350°F. Includes two (2) removable nickel plated wire shelves easily adjustable on 2" centers. Holds a maximum of seven (7) shelves. Widely used for drying small items, preheating plastics, drying powdered metals and curing potting compounds. Double doors for easy loading of large parts.

Name: Barnstead Thermolyne 21000 Tube Furnace

Application: Features accurate, automatic temperature control with self-tuning function that maintains preset temperature. LCD display shows both set point and chamber temperature (100 to 1,200 °C). Heating elements embedded in ceramic fiber insulation for rapid heatup and cool down. Adjustable alarm or OTP temperature setting can be used to protect the furnace or loads in the chamber from excess heat. Chamber supplied with two interchangeable end pieces to accept tube diameters 2.5 and 5.0 cm. Furnace operates in any position. Includes line cord and plug.
