In a vacuum drying oven, the thermal processes occur in an airtight chamber where a desired vacuum level is set using an external vacuum pump. With vacuum ovens, entire applications can take place under vacuum or in a controlled atmosphere through the introduction of an inert gas. Vacuum ovens can help in the prevention of surface reactions (such as oxidation), decontaminating samples (removing lubricants for example) as well as for speeding up the out gassing process. When determining the vacuum oven process, bear in mind that you will need the correctly sized pump to adhere to application requirements. This requires defining the appropriate chamber size, the level of vacuum desired, and how quickly you will need to reach that desired vacuum level.
