Salt-bath furnaces offer remarkably high temperature uniformity and excellent heat transfer to the work piece. Our salt-bath furnaces TS 20/15 - TSB 90/80 are especially useful for heat-treating of metals in neutral or active salt baths. Processes such as carbonitriding (e.g. Tenifer) up to 600 °C, carburizing up to 950 °C, or bright annealing up to 1000 °C can be realized. In their standard version these salt-bath furnaces are equipped with safety technology for heat treatment of steel. As addional feature they can be equipped with extended safety technology for heat treatment of light metals.

- Useful for heat treatment of steel
- Salt bath temperature control
- Electric (TS) all-round heating or gas heating (TSB)
- Removable collar plate made of solid steel
- Insulated swing-a-way lid
- Temperature uniformity up to +/- 2 °C according to DIN 17052-1 in the salt bath
- Over-temperature limiter with manual reset in the furnace chamber to prevent dangerous conditions for the furnace or personnel
- Salt bath control of salt bath and furnace chamber
- Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
Crucibles
- Type P: low carbon steel and CrNi plated for carburizing, neutral salt and annealing baths up to 850 °C
- Type C: high alloy CrNi steel for neutral salt and annealing baths up to 1000 °C and for dip brazing of Aluminium
Additional equipment
- Exhaust gas collection at rim for connection to an exhaust system
- Enhanced safety systems for heat treatment of aluminium and magnesium in the salt bath with second over-temperature limiter with manual reset and PLC-bath control with thermocouples in the salt bath and in the furnace chamber
- Process control and documentation via VCD software package or Nabertherm Control Center (NCC) for monitoring, documentation and control
