Soil Drying Oven
Australian-made Steridium Soil Drying Ovens for precision laboratory applications. Compliant with AS 1289 and AS 1141 standards.
Description
High-Performance Thermal Processing for CMT
Engineered and manufactured in Queensland, Australia, Steridium Soil Drying Ovens are purpose-built to meet the rigorous demands of the Construction Materials Testing (CMT) and environmental sectors. These units provide the consistent, high-accuracy thermal environment required for drying soil and aggregate samples in strict accordance with AS 1289, AS 1141, and Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) specifications.
Advanced Technical Capabilities
Steridium ovens combine robust industrial construction with precision digital control to ensure long-term reliability in harsh laboratory environments:
- Precision Thermal Control: Digital PID controller providing 0.1°C resolution and exceptional temperature stability from ambient up to 150°C.
- Fan-Forced Circulation: High-velocity airflow systems guarantee uniform heat distribution throughout the entire chamber volume.
- Industrial Build Quality: Corrosion-resistant stainless steel interiors paired with durable powder-coated steel exteriors and high-grade insulation.
- Safety Integrated: Featuring independent over-temperature protection and fully sealed chambers to protect both samples and personnel.
