Hot Air Oven

The hot air oven comprises of a double walled chamber instilled with heavy stainless steel. The product adheres to all standards and is certified The laboratory Hot Air Oven can help the manufacturers in accurate testing of the materials in harsh working environments. Standards like ASTM E 871 outlines the procedure for determining the moisture content of materials by drying a sample in an oven. ASTM D618 indirectly mentions an Hot air oven for drying purposes.

Appropriate elevated temperature and time duration play a crucial role in determining the true properties of materials in a certain condition. Testronix Instruments offers a wide range of hot air ovens based on customer requirements. Industries can make selections based on the chamber size, types of airflow (static or forced air), temperature ranges, and the material being tested.

Generally, based on the required hot air oven specifications, industries use mainly two types of air circulation methods – Static airflow and forced airflow. In a forced oven, a fan moves around the heating coil to keep the temperature static throughout the chamber. In a static oven, a heating coil at the bottom of the oven heats the air, which rises throughout the oven.

Working Principle of Laboratory Hot Air Oven

Hot air oven works on the principle of the sterilization process through convection, conduction, and radiation. It contains a heating element that increases the temperature inside the chamber and fans circulate the hot air evenly. The outer surface of the specimen or testing material absorbs and conducts the heat. Due to the conduction process, the heat gradually moves towards the center of the material and increases its temperature. The process is completed once the material gets cooled down and the requisite properties of the material are then measured.

The hot air oven comprises the following mechanical and electric parts

Mechanical Parts:

• Cabinet (external shield)
• Fiberglass
• Chamber
• Fans or Blower to Circulate Air
• Door

Electric Parts:

• Heating Element
• Power Supply
• Thermostat
• Temperature Indicator
• Control Panel

Applications of Hot Air Oven

A laboratory hot air oven is a testing equipment with a wide variety of applications based on industrial requirements. The following are the main applications-

• Sterilization of laboratory equipment like glassware, metal equipment, powders, and materials that contain oil.
• Test material properties at elevated temperatures; glassware and non-volatile materials.
• It is useful for researching the materials in various industries.
• A hot air oven assesses the heat resistance properties of materials and microorganisms.
• Test the durability of material at the elevated temperatures.
• Test materials physical properties at varying temperatures and specific mechanical conditions like conduction and convection.
