1. Temperature range and requirements
Determine the maximum temperature requirement: First, clarify the maximum temperature required for the experiment. For example, some experiments may only require temperatures of a few hundred degrees Celsius, while research on high-temperature materials may require reaching 1200 ° C or even higher.
Material temperature resistance: Select a suitable tube furnace based on the temperature resistance of the experimental material. Quartz tubes are typically suitable for lower temperatures (≤ 1100 ° C), while alumina ceramics or ceramic fibers are suitable for higher temperatures (≥ 1200 ° C).

2. Material selection
Furnace materials: such as ceramic fibers, alumina ceramics, etc., which have good high temperature resistance and stability.
Furnace shell material: Cold rolled steel plates are commonly used in low-temperature applications, while stainless steel is more suitable for high-temperature applications that require high corrosion resistance.

3. Control system
Intelligent temperature control system: Priority should be given to tube furnaces with intelligent temperature control systems, which can monitor the temperature inside the furnace in real time and automatically adjust it to ensure the accuracy and stability of the temperature.
Temperature control accuracy: Consider whether the temperature control accuracy meets the experimental requirements. Some high-precision experiments may require a temperature control accuracy of ± 1 ° C or lower.

4. Atmosphere control
Atmosphere introduction function: Select whether to support atmosphere introduction according to experimental requirements, such as nitrogen, argon, oxygen, etc. Some experiments need to be conducted in a specific atmosphere to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results.
Atmosphere control accuracy: If it is necessary to introduce atmosphere, the amount of atmosphere introduced and control accuracy also need to be considered.

5. Safety and durability
Safety performance: Choose a tube furnace with safety functions such as over temperature protection and leakage protection to ensure safety during the experimental process.
Durability: Consider the durability of furnace materials and heating elements, as well as the stability of the overall structure, to ensure that the equipment can operate stably for a long time.

6. After sales service and technical support
After sales service: Understand the supplier’s after-sales service policy, including warranty period, repair service, etc.
Technical support: Consider whether the supplier provides technical support and training services to ensure timely resolution of any issues encountered during use.

7. Cost and Budget
Equipment cost: Choose the appropriate tube furnace model and configuration based on the budget. The prices of tube furnaces of different brands and models vary greatly, and it is necessary to weigh them according to actual needs.
Operating costs: Considering the energy consumption and operating costs of the equipment, choose equipment with higher energy efficiency to reduce long-term operating costs.
