About This 1300°C LOI Furnace 140 x 100 x 160 MM Chamber
LOI stands for "Loss on Ignition." This furnace is specifically used to heat a sample to a high temperature (typically 1000°C) to drive off volatile components like water, carbonates, and organic matter. The working principle involves weighing a sample before and after ignition in a controlled atmosphere (usually air); the weight loss percentage is the LOI. Its purpose is an essential analytical technique in ceramics, geology, soil science, and cement manufacturing to determine the composition and quality of raw materials and products.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 140 x 100 x 160 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 2.2 litre, approximate power load of 3.9 kW, rectangular - wide 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.
Equivalent chamber references: 140 x 100 x 160 MM, 14 x 10 x 16 CM and 5 x 4 x 6 INCH.

Trutherm manufactures 1300 Degree Celsius (°C) LOI Furnace 140 x 100 x 160 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.
Because muffle furnaces are used across ashing, drying, calcination and light heat-treatment, the chamber and controller are specified for flexibility rather than one narrow process window.
Routine QC and teaching labs value a muffle furnace precisely because one unit can cover several standard test methods without dedicated process-specific tooling.
FAQs for 1300 Degree Celsius (°C) LOI Furnace 140 x 100 x 160 MM Chamber

Why Choose This LOI Furnace
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.
