Getter Furnace

Thoughtventions Unlimited, LLC offers for purchase a Getter Furnace that pumps selectable impurities from high vacuum facilities. A variety of materials are activated at temperature to almost entirely eliminate impurity gas traces.

Specifications apply to model completed and in use, other sizes are available.

Features:

• Alumina crucible/titanium mesh cup suitable for a variety of active pumping pellets.
• Crucible temperature monitored by Type K thermocouple
