Furnace
   Barnstead FB1300 Furnace for general purpose and heat treatment of various samples

   Temperature ranges: 100°C (212°F) to 982°C (1800°F) for continuous use, or from 982°C
   (1800°F) to 1100°C (2012°F) for intermittent use.
   Continuous use is operating the furnace for more than three straight hours, and
   intermittent use is operating the furnace for less than three hours		Furnace
