Top 3 Secrets for Using Muffle Furnace for Different Applications

The process of measuring chemicals that are inorganic has been around for a while. It is important to measure these components because they can be hazardous, and it's necessary to know the levels present within an object. If you are looking for a reliable testing instrument to measure the content of organic components in the material then you are in right place. Presto muffle furnace is oven-type equipment that can reach high temperatures and burn off specific types of compounds. For instance, for a standard determination of the amount of inorganic components within an object, a muffle furnace can be used to burn off all the organic material (which is roughly said always < 500°C).

We measure inorganic components within an object because it gives us a better understanding of the chemical composition of the object. It is important to understand what elements are present and how they are distributed throughout the material. In this blog, we are going to provide you with essential information about the muffle furnace from Presto and how to use it effectively.

Introduction about muffle furnace

If you want to improve the performance of materials like fiberglass, ceramics, rubbers, and polymers, etc. then we suggest you go with Presto muffle furnace. It is mainly used to auto-ignite the organic material, due to high temperatures. This amazing testing instrument is also suitable for checking the ash content of polymers. Presto muffle furnace is manufactured strictly as per the guidelines of the national & international standards and over the years has been acclaimed as a true chamber providing heated conditions for accelerated tests and exposures. It also hosts various user-friendly controls which make working with it easy and comfortable. To operate this testing machine, you need to set the desired temperature through HMI based display. This is provided at the bottom of the device and will heat the furnace automatically. You can easily use this amazing testing instrument in various applications like medical research, wool industries, metal treatment, agriculture, and other manufacturing industries.

These are the technical specifications of the muffle furnace. To conduct the test successfully, you can follow these useful tips to conduct the test in a muffle furnace effectively.

3 useful tips to successfully conduct the quality test with a muffle furnace

  • Whenever you use the muffle furnace for testing, then you must set the values and LOC parameters to zero. This will help to easily conduct the test and you will get accurate testing results.
  • Most of us face the problem of no heating in the machine. This would be possible due of MCB is down or the heating coil is broken. Therefore, to commence the test, you should check the MCB of the heating coil in the back of the machine.
  • If you are worried about the PID controller is displaying unexpected reading then it might happen due to the RTD senor is disturbed. Therefore, to overcome this issue, you can set the Input for the RTD sensor to 0/1 for J/K type thermocouple.


In this way, you can easily commence the test and use the Presto muffle furnace to successfully conduct the test. To know more information about its features, price, and technical specifications, give us a call at +91 9210903903 or email us at info@prestogroup.com.
