Vacuum Heating and Drying Ovens
Hereaus Vacuum Ovens
Series 6000 vacutherm® ovens uncompromisingly meet all demands relating to heat
treatment in vacuum, whether simple routines or complicated processes up to 400 °C
are involved. Starting with high quality standard models, application specific configurations can be realised through selection from a wide range of equipment options.
Advantages of Hereaus Vacuum Ovens
User comfort
With the inert gas connection incorporating a precision valve, process gas is dispensed
accurately. Drying times are therefore reduced and condensation is prevented. Furthermore, the precision valve can safely prevent blowing of powders when the vacuum chamber is ventilated.
Corrosion resistance
The vacuum chamber is made of high quality stainless steel (1.4571) with outstanding corrosion resistance.
Economic viability
With their high quality standard features, extreme reliability and state of the art safety concepts, vacutherm® ovens offer the best price/performance ratio.
Safety tested
Kendro has set new safety standards with Heraeus® vacutherm® 6000 Vacuum Drying Ovens. With the double-pane door made of safety glass, for instance, implosion protection is guaranteed throughout the equipment's working life. The glass cannot become brittle or dull as with plastic.
Special versions are available for drying applications that involve flammable solvents.
Process safety
With heating systems that have been tried and tested for decades, uniform and reproducible drying and heat treatment is ensured.
Time saving
Jacket- or shelf-heating results in reduced heating-up times. Process times are up to six times
faster than in conventional Vacuum Drying Ovens.
Vacuum applications offer many benefits:
Gentle drying of heat sensitive materials
Significantly reduced drying times
Residue free drying of intricately designed parts
Elimination of oxidation associated with heat treatment
Safe drying of flammable solvents
Targeted recovery of degassed products

Vacuum chamber made of stainless steel (1.4571),electropolished, 100 % rounded corners, easy-to-clean and corrosion resistant
Stainless steel vacuum fittings, tubing and ball valve
Analogue pressure display
Rapid ventilation valve for quick ventilation of the chamber
Additional precision valve for gentle ventilation
Inert gas connection for controlled atmosphere. A safety valve prevents overpressure inside the vacuum chamber
DN 25 access port in the rear wall
Two types of heating
The vacutherm® 6000 series is available with two different types of heating:
model M, jacket heating:
Heat transfer from the vacuum chamber via the shelves to the load
model P, shelf heating:
The shelves incorporate heating coils. Heat is transferred directly to the load.
The benefits of shelf heating
The direct energy transportation ensures rapid heating-up and process times. Drying process times can be reduced as much as 6 fold compared to standard drying methods.
