The Carbolite Gero CWF 11/23 is a high-performance, bench-mounted laboratory chamber furnace engineered for general-purpose thermal processing, ashing, calcination, and advanced materials testing. Providing an optimal chamber volume of 23 litres and a maximum operating temperature of 1100 °C, this model is widely selected for its heavy-duty reliability and stable thermal performance in both industrial and academic research laboratories. The heating system utilizes free-radiating wire-wound elements paired with low thermal mass energy-efficient insulation to guarantee superior temperature uniformity and rapid thermal response.
User safety and structural ergonomics are central to the CWF 11/23 design. It features a vertical lift door mechanism that ensures the radiant, hot insulation surface is always faced away from the operator during loading and unloading. For enhanced longevity, the furnace entrance, hearth, and element carriers are constructed from heavy-wearing alumina ceramics, protecting the chamber against mechanical wear and chemical attack. Thermal profiles are piously managed by the digital Carbolite Gero 301 PID controller, offering smooth single-ramp control and integrated automated timing.
Product Highlights:
-
Vertical Lift Door (Soft-Close): Upward-opening door architecture shields the user from direct radiant heat, featuring an integrated soft-close mechanism on this 23-litre model.
-
Optimized Radiant Uniformity: Free-radiating wire-wound elements deliver highly effective and balanced heat distribution throughout the chamber structure.
-
Heavy-Wear Alumina Ceramics: Hard-wearing alumina element carriers, furnace entrance, and base hearth resist mechanical abrasion and sample contamination.
-
Energy-Efficient Thermal Shielding: Low thermal mass insulation ensures quick heat-up rates (reaching max temperature in 36 minutes) and low outer casing temperatures.
-
Intuitive Digital Automation: Equipped with the 301 PID controller as standard, facilitating single-ramp heating profiles, digital process timing, and a delayed start function.
-
Service-Friendly Layout: Direct access to electronic control elements and heating sub-assemblies simplifies routine maintenance and calibration workflows.
