CVO-10 PRO Package with MAXTRAP105

The Cascade Difference

Vacuum ovens have been around for decades. Basic vacuum ovens are mass-produced and sold by many large laboratory equipment distributors. But there are key differences between Cascade and other less costly, often imported vacuum ovens:

Exceptional Temperature Control & Stability

The Cascade CVO-10 uses a unique control logic not found in most lab grade vacuum ovens. The temperature probe is INSIDE the oven, which minimizes temperature overshoot and delivers best-in-class temperature stability and uniformity particularly in the low temperature ranges. Accurate, stable temps throughout the CVO-10 eliminate hot and cold spots, making accurate use of every inch of shelf space. Copper strips are integrated into the shelf brackets for optimized temperature transfer into the shelves under vacuum.

Independent Overtemp Failsafe Protection

The Cascade Sciences CVO-10 is equipped with a heating cutoff system that will automatically stop power to the heaters when the oven shelf temps exceed 392°F or 200°C. This protection system will provide peace of mind for overnight processing or unattended vacuum bake outs.

NRTL Certification #U8 170464972 077. No Extra cost.

The CVO-10 Vacuum Oven comes certified by the Nationally Recognized Test Lab, TUV. This certification is a requirement by many municipalities.

Rigorous Quality Assurance in an ISO Certified, USA Manufacturing Facility

Cascade Sciences manufactures our ovens in Oregon, USA. We are proud of our ISO 9001 Certification/Accreditation. Each oven completes a series of quality assurance procedures before shipment.

• Chambers are vacuum tested after welding for vacuum integrity
• Electrical & mechanical safety is thoroughly tested in compliance with TUV requirements
• Temperature verification includes calibration & temp chamber uniformity following ASTM standards
• Units are cleaned and packed in ISTA tested, certified packaging materials

Digital Vacuum Gauge

The digital vacuum gauge is selectable to read in inches of mercury (“Hg) or torr, mtorr.

Equipped for Inert Gas Backfill.  Built-In Safety Relief

Introduce inert gasses such as nitrogen, argon, helium, etc. as part of your process via the rear vent barb. The maximum backfill pressure is 15PSI. In an overpressure situation, a simple, built-in safety relief allows gasses to escape via a spring loaded tempered window.

Flexible Pumping / Feedthru Connection Ports

For faster evaporation, purging or drying the CVO-10 PRO Pacakge with MAXTRAP105 includes Cascade’s MAX EVAP connection kit. The MAX EVAP connection kit secures to the oven’s rear 1” dia KF-25 port located on the back center of the chamber. The MAX EVAP connection never reduces flow by continuing with 1” diameter vacuum rated clear lines, a 1” dia KF-25 side mounted vacuum valve and KF-25 fittings and hardware. This KF-25 port can also be used to run temperature feedthrus, or monitoring sensors inside the vacuum chamber during processing.

Ergonomically Designed, Easy Quarter-Turn Valves

For anyone that has struggled with consistently turning the small, round, low-quality vacuum/vent valves, relief is in sight. You will love our large, quarter-turn vent valve. Your wrists will thank you!

Faster Venting With Large ½” Diameter Vent Lines

For large capacity production environments, time is money.  The CVO-10 PRO Package with MAXTRAP 105 has larger than industry standard vent lines.  ½” diameter vent lines means operators spend less time venting the oven.

ANSI Rated Tempered Glass + USA Made Steel

Cascade ovens are made in Oregon, USA with high quality materials. Our glass is NGI-USA Tempered and certified to ANSI Z97.1.2007  16CFR / 201 11. Our vacuum vessels are constructed with American made steel. We’ve tried lower cost, imported steel. But over time, vacuum chambers made of lesser quality/lower tolerance material cannot withstand the flex and pressure changes of vacuum pumping/venting/purging. This can deteriorate vacuum integrity and the oven will lost its ability to hold vacuum.
