High-temperature, vacuum, protective gas and cooling water control MSRA-VA20 for use with MAYTEC vacuum and protective gas furnaces.


It enables the central control and monitoring of all process-relevant parameters such as temperature, vacuum, protective gas supply and cooling water monitoring.

The control system performs, among other things, the following tasks:

  • Control and heating systems, e.g. for temperature conditioning of test chambers and sample holders.
  • Control of vacuum pumps such as turbomolecular pumps and rotary vane pumps for generating and controlling the desired vacuum level, purging and evacuating with protective gas.
  • Monitoring and display of chamber vacuumto ensure stable test conditions.
  • Regulated protective gas supply, e.g. for sensitive sensors or for atmospheric stabilization in vacuum measurement processes.
  • Control of an external gas valve for targeted rinsing of the pyrometer transmission window – important for precise non-contact temperature measurements.

  • Maximum number of control channels: 16
  • temperature control for 1, 2 or 3 zones, ideal for different heating areas or graduated temperature profiles.
  • Temperature control accuracy: +/-1 to +/-°C – for constant test conditions.
  • Communication interface: Ethernet-Modbus TCP, for constant test conditions.
  • Power supply:
    AC: 3 phases/400 V/50 Hz
