Water-cooled crucibles are available in copper, stainless steel, and graphite. Copper offers high thermal conductivity, stainless steel provides corrosion resistance, and graphite is suitable for very high temperatures. The choice depends on the specific application and material compatibility.
The cooling water flow rate typically ranges from 10 to 30 L/min, depending on the crucible size and heat load. It is essential to maintain an adequate flow rate to ensure effective heat removal and temperature stability.
Yes, custom sizes are available. The inner diameter can range from 50 to 500 mm, outer diameter from 80 to 600 mm, height from 100 to 800 mm, and wall thickness from 5 to 20 mm. Confirm exact dimensions with the manufacturer for your application.
The maximum operating temperature depends on the crucible material and typically ranges from 1600 to 2000 °C. Higher temperatures may reduce cooling efficiency, so verify the specific limit for the chosen material and design.
