Memmert UF30 – High-precision drying and temperature control
The Memmert UF30 is a compact universal oven designed to meet the demanding requirements of laboratories, research centres and industrial units requiring precise temperature control. Its versatility allows it to be used for a wide range of applications such as sample drying, controlled heating, ageing tests, electronic burn-in and material hardening. Thanks to its high-performance control technology and robust design, this device ensures consistent and reproducible results.
At the heart of the UF30 is a digital PID control system with a high-definition TFT colour display, allowing intuitive and precise programming of parameters. The user can adjust the temperature to within a tenth of a degree below 100 °C, and with a resolution of 0.5 °C above that. The SetpointWAIT system ensures that the processing time only starts once the target temperature has been reached, thus ensuring consistent and reliable cycles.
Air circulation is provided by a silent turbine, adjustable in 10% increments, which homogenises the temperature throughout the chamber. The introduction of preheated fresh air is electronically controlled via an adjustable valve, optimising air renewal without disturbing thermal stability. A duct extraction system with a restriction valve also allows for efficient air evacuation.
The UF30 is designed to guarantee safe and reliable operation. It features dual overheating protection: a configurable electronic regulator and a mechanical limiter that cuts off the heating at approximately 20°C above the set temperature. A self-diagnostic system quickly detects and analyses any faults, helping to reduce downtime.
The internal chamber, with a useful volume of 32 litres, is made entirely of easy-to-clean electropolished stainless steel, reinforced with deep drawing for rigidity and incorporating a heater protected on four sides. The thermally insulated door is equipped with a two-point compression lock to ensure excellent thermal sealing. The unit can accommodate up to three stainless steel shelves, each supporting up to 20 kg, for a total of 60 kg.
Compact and easy to integrate into a laboratory, the UF30 measures 585 × 704 × 434 mm and weighs approximately 45 kg. It is designed to operate in ambient conditions ranging from +5 °C to +40 °C, with a maximum relative humidity of 80% without condensation. For programming and data management, it is compatible with AtmoCONTROL software, accessible via an Ethernet interface, allowing temperature records to be read, organised and exported.
The Memmert UF30 is therefore an efficient and durable tool for professionals who need perfect temperature and ventilation control in their experimental and production processes. Its robust design, control accuracy and flexibility of use make it an essential piece of equipment in many scientific and industrial fields.
