How Does a Laboratory Oven or Oven Work?

Among the different types of Thermostatic laboratory ovens, we can identify some of the characteristics that characterize the operation of a stove or an oven. Below we describe how a Thermostatic laboratory oven works to help choose the most suitable model for the application intended by the user.

Guide to Buying a Laboratory Oven

Natural Ovens , where the air circulation occurs with the natural convective motion where the hot air tends to rise and draw colder air into circulation. In this type of Natural Air Ovens the natural convection of the air favors the heating of the entire volume, creating however more or less hot spots. To overcome this inconvenience, Fratelli Galli has studied and perfected over the years various measures to better homogenize the temperature, designing special resistances, creating special deflectors, in order to favor a convection that becomes guided in this way.

Forced Ventilation Ovens , where the air is moved by a fan in a forced manner.
These stoves are also called mechanical convection stoves because we have a device, a fan that pushes the air in a certain direction in order to have the most uniform heating possible. Not only that, the forced circulation of the air also allows for obtaining gradients, more important heating speeds. But it is not enough to put “a fan” in an oven to have a good result. Here too, years of experience have led Fratelli Galli to study and create forced ventilation Ovens with unique characteristics; specific models have very particular types of ventilation that, by differentiating themselves, allow for obtaining the best possible result in terms of heating, uniformity and thermal precision.

Vacuum Ovens, where it is possible to work in vacuum or with inert gas.
These devices are built to withstand depression and therefore the absence of atmosphere inside their chamber. The 21GV Vacuum Ovens by Fratelli Galli are perfect for all applications where thermolabile substances must be treated or when drying must be done at low temperatures and in an optimal manner.
Combined with the Vacuum Pumps, these tools have a practical vacuum indicator tool and a valve that allows you to adjust the level reached, versions with Digital Vacuum Gauges and TouchScreen controls are available for the most demanding customers.

Inert Atmosphere Ovens , in these models the air normally present in the test chamber is modified or replaced by the controlled introduction of an inert or modified atmosphere. This is to perform particular and specific heat treatments or to reduce the oxidation of the materials being tested. The inert atmosphere ovens designed and produced by Fratelli Galli are used in various sectors including the Electronic, Medical and Chemical laboratories, often made according to the specific needs of the customer.

Unbeatable Quality and Price in Prompt Delivery

Laboratory and Industrial Ovens with unbeatable Quality/Price ratio, truly competitive prices. Prompt delivery for many models: thanks to our warehouse we can guarantee a fast immediate shipment for your new laboratory oven. In stock you can find ovens for drying and heating samples from low temperature to high temperature up to 300 degrees centigrade, +350°C, +500°C and +700°C. With natural circulation or forced ventilation, thermostatic ovens are used in all laboratories also to sterilize contaminated instruments. As standard we offer a high level of safety , our laboratory ovens comply with the DIN 12880, Class 3.1 standard. Many sizes are available with volumes from a few internal liters in the benchtop versions, up to large capacities of thousands of liters in the more industrial versions. In addition to sales, Galli guarantees an after-sales service both for original Galli devices and to repair other Italian and foreign devices.

Standard, Special and Custom Stoves

Fratelli Galli designs and builds a wide range of “series” Oven models where different volumes, sizes, temperatures and controls are proposed which satisfy a large part of the needs of the scientific and industrial laboratory.
Furthermore , “special” Ovens are designed and manufactured according to the specific requests of the customers. Sometimes starting from a standard model, some modifications are made, some accessories are added, other thermal control, thermal recording, safety and supervision systems are implemented which make the appliance truly special and optimized for the use that the customer will have to make of it.
The strong point of Fratelli Galli is the design and production of “ad hoc”, “tailor-made” equipment.
Commissioning a stove or an oven tailor-made the customer begins to work closely with our company and the result is a unique product, ideal for a specific application, designed to optimize the process making it as efficient as possible.

We have made special Ovens for hoods and glove boxes, ovens and furnaces for chemistry, ovens with double interlocked opposing opening, ovens with 3 doors, triple opening, deep pit ovens, very long pit ovens, cabinet ovens, tubular ovens, Ovens with upper, lower and lateral windows for internal observation, ovens with inert gas and forming gas control, gradient ovens and furnaces, ovens with automatic loading and unloading systems, top loading ovens with automatic opening and much more.

Service and Assistance

In addition to advising you before purchasing your laboratory oven, we are able to offer you installation, IQ, OQ, PQ protocols, testing, calibration and periodic calibration, preventive maintenance and everything necessary to always keep your instrument efficient and ready for use.

Repairs and Spare Parts

In case of breakdown or malfunction, we offer a repair service on site or at our laboratory. Both for original Galli products and for those of other national and foreign brands. A large warehouse of spare parts allows the replacement of deteriorated parts in a short time.

Used Guaranteed

If you are looking for a Guaranteed Used, a used thermostatic laboratory oven or a used oven, contact us, we may have the instrument for you.
If you want to sell an old appliance that you no longer use and maybe now it even bothers you and takes up space, contact us, we will evaluate your used one.
