1.1 GPC models
This manual covers both the “laboratory” and “industrial” GPC furnaces.
The laboratory models are GPC 12/36, GPC 13/36, GPC 12/65 and GPC 13/65. These are
designed for bench mounting, but can be supplied with a stand.
The industrial models are GPC 12/131, 13/131 and GPC 12/200. These are floor standing units.
The furnaces are fundamentally similar in operation, but the industrial sizes are altogether larger
and therefore require somewhat different handling and siting.
