The VWR Scientific 1410 is a compact vacuum oven for laboratory drying, curing, and outgassing under controlled vacuum conditions. Operating from 40°C to 225°C with temperature uniformity of ±2°C at 100°C and ±3°C to ±5°C at 200°C, it maintains vacuum performance to 10 microns or better. The 0.6 cubic feet (17 L) stainless steel chamber reaches 100°C in approximately 30–35 minutes and features a unique contact heating system with cross-flow ventilation for consistent thermal distribution. Dual doors—a solid outer door and inner glass-windowed door—provide visibility and access. The unit incorporates two interior shelves, separate vacuum and gas metering valves with 9.5 mm (3/8″) connections, wrap-around insulation for energy efficiency, and adjustable rubber feet for leveling. Microprocessor-controlled operation (with some units featuring analog setpoint control) enables precise process management. Stainless steel construction inside and out resists corrosion and contamination. At 55 lbs and drawing 550 W at 120V/60Hz/8A, it integrates into standard laboratory power infrastructure.
