This analytical furnace is used to determine the carbon content in materials like steel, soil, or organic compounds through combustion analysis. Operating at high temperatures (around 1000°C), it combusts the sample in an oxygen-rich environment. The working principle involves burning the sample completely, converting all carbon to carbon dioxide, which is then measured by an infrared detector or absorbed for gravimetric analysis. Its purpose is quality control in metallurgy, environmental testing, and chemical analysis to ensure material specifications are met. It is a standard instrument in quality assurance laboratories for metals and fuels.

Trutherm manufactures 1300 Degree Celsius (1300°C) Carbon Determination Furnace 340 × 340 × 640 MM Chamber for buyers who search by exact machine type, chamber size and 1300°C temperature rating. This page is specific to the MM dimension version, so the chamber size is presented in the unit normally used in the buyer's drawing, tender or purchase request.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 340 × 340 × 640 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 74 litre, approximate power load of 16.5 kW, square chamber profile. It is commonly selected for laboratory, QC, metallurgical, ceramic, pharmaceutical and industrial heat-treatment work requiring stable heating and repeatable process conditions. Typical use includes general laboratory and industrial heat-treatment applications requiring stable, repeatable temperature control.
Where sample volume and process type vary week to week, a general-purpose muffle furnace avoids the cost of maintaining several process-specific furnace types.
A muffle furnace is usually the first furnace a lab installs, since it covers the broadest share of everyday heating, drying and ashing tasks before more specialised equipment is added.
As a general-purpose muffle furnace, this model covers a broader range of routine heating tasks than a process-specific ashing, tube or sintering furnace, making it the practical default when the lab runs mixed sample types rather than one dedicated process.
