1200°C Crucible Furnace
High-performance 1200°C Top-Loading Crucible Furnace – Engineered for convenient crucible handling and atmospheric thermal processing.
The VYS-1200C is a specialized, CE-certified crucible furnace designed for effortless top-loading crucible placement up to 1200°C with ±1°C accuracy. Built with high-purity alumina fibre insulation and durable thermal alloy elements, it features protective heavy-duty refractory bricks at the bottom to withstand intensive crucible wear during melting, calcining, and sintering.
Equipped with a dual-layer air-cooled shell, a smart 50-segment programmable digital controller, and atmosphere/vacuum compatibility, this top-loading system represents an incredibly robust and user-friendly heating solution for UK metallurgy and advanced materials research.

1200°C Crucible Furnace – VYS-1200C Series
Benli Lab is the Exclusive UK Distributor of Hefei Weiyuansu Laboratory Equipment. The VYS-1200C series crucible furnace utilizes an ergonomic top-loading configuration that is ideally suited for holding vertical crucible setups, heavy glass melts, and advanced metallurgical components. By combining top-entry convenience with superior atmospheric and vacuum capabilities, this robust muffle system allows scientists across the United Kingdom to execute complex calcination, melting, and protective-gas analysis under optimal thermal conditions.
Key Features & Benefits
- Top-Loading Ergonomic Design – Vertical top-entry door mechanism allows straightforward vertical placement of crucibles and material fixtures, minimizing the risks of sample tipping or spilling.
- Integrated Lining Protection – Pre-installed high-durability refractory bricks at the bottom of the muffle chamber shield the softer ceramic-fibre insulation against accidental abrasion, heavy loads, and mechanical wear.
- Vacuum & Controlled Atmosphere – Fully compatible with custom gas inlet manifolds and vacuum pump kits, allowing secure sample processing under vacuum or protective gas streams (such as Argon or Nitrogen).
- Advanced Thermal Refractories – High-purity polycrystalline alumina fibre chamber lined with US-imported high-temperature alumina coating to maximize heat reflection, decrease power dissipation, and extend muffle longevity.
- Double-Shell Ventilation – Double-walled carbon steel housing integrated with forced-air cooling loops maintains low outer casing temperatures, ensuring a safe and comfortable working space.
- Intelligent Programming – Controlled by an YD858 digital PID controller with 50 programmable segments, auto-tuning, and robust safety interlocks protecting against thermal runaway and thermocouple failure.
