Please view " Tailoring the Edge Structure of Molybdenum Disulfide towards Electrocatalytic Reduction of Carbon Dioxide " published by ACS Nano, on Dec 07, 2016, in which an MTI OTF-1200X three-zone furnace was used for Ta and Nb-doped MoS2 synthesis.
OTF1200X-III-5-C3LVSF (updated from OTF-1200X-5-III-SF) is a splittable 5" (O.D) three-zone tube furnace, which can achieve faster heating up to 1200 o C and create a thermal gradient by adjusting the temperature of three zones . The furnace includes all accessories for immediate use. It is an excellent furnace for annealing, diffusing, and sintering samples in various atmospheres. This furnace system also includes an anti-corrosive Pirani Capacitance Diaphragm Gauge to enable vacuum measurements with aggressive gasses.

Heating Zone Length
|
- Three zones: (900mm, 36" in total)
- Zone 1: 229mm (9")
- Zone 2: 457mm (18.0")
- Zone 3: 229 mm (9")

Temperature Controllers
 
|
- Three precision temperature controllers to control three zones separately
- PID automatic control with 30 programmable segments for precise control of heating rate, cooling rate, and dwell time
- Built-in overheating & broken thermocouple protection
- Over-temperature protection and alarm allows for operation without attendant(s)
- +/- 1 ºC temperature accuracy
- RS485 Communications Port
- Optional:
- The furnace may be operated by PC by installing three control modules. Please order the MTS-02 control modules at an extra cost
-
If you order the PC control module together with the furnace, we will install and test it before shipping. We recommend you to order a computer laptop from us to avoid software installation problems. For more information please click here

|
European Temperature Controllers (optional upgrade)
|
- 1 heating channel
- 1 program of 8 or 24 segment
- Alarm Relay: Form 'A' and Form ‘C’ built-in
- Digital Communications: RS485
- Temperature Accuracy: ± 0.1ºC
- Recipes: Using a PC tool recipes can be created that can be used to change the operating parameters of the 3000 simply by selecting a new recipe via the HMI. This is very useful where multiple products are processed using the same controller but require different parameters to be set

Vacuum Sensor & Display
|
- Corrosion-proof Capacitance Diaphragm Gauge with ceramic coated sensor head specially designed for vacuum measurements with the presence of corrosive gasses
- Gauge is installed on the vacuum flange (right side) of the tube furnace and provides a wide measure range (10^-5 ~ 1000 torr)
|
|
Vacuum Pump
|
- 156 L/m Double Stage Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump is included with max. vacuum pressure of 10-2torr. Stainless steel hose tube is included for connecting to the tube furnace
- SS vacuum pipe & ball valve with KF25 adaptor guarantee a ^-2 torr vacuum
- Optional: You may achieve 1.0E-5 Torr vacuum by turbo pump ( click pic.1 to order)
- Optional: For precise control of the vacuum pressure, we recommend you choose our turn-key solution EQ-VPC-MV (Pic.2). This is a vacuum pressure regulating system with a motorized valve and gauge. It controls pressure range from 10^-6 torr ~ 760 torr
