Usage Guidelines for Transparent U-shaped Quartz Tube
Proper handling, installation, and maintenance of clear U-shaped quartz tubes ensures maximum performance and extended service life in your applications.
Manuseio e armazenamento
- Handle with clean gloves to prevent surface contamination and fingerprints
- Store in original packaging or clean, dust-free containers
- Avoid mechanical stress on bend regions during handling and transport
- Support both legs when carrying to prevent stress at the bend
Práticas recomendadas de instalação
- Use silicon or graphite ferrules for connections rather than metal fittings
- Avoid over-tightening fittings that can create stress points
- Allow for thermal expansion when designing mounting systems
- For electrical applications, ensure proper grounding of metal end fittings
Gerenciamento de temperatura
- Heat and cool gradually (maximum rate: 150°C/minute) to prevent thermal shock
- For short-term operation above 1100°C, ensure the tube is free from mechanical constraints
- Avoid direct contact between quartz and metal components at high temperatures
- For water-cooled applications, ensure water flow before heating to prevent thermal stress
Limpeza e manutenção
- Clean with ultrapure water, acetone, or isopropyl alcohol
- For stubborn deposits, use dilute HF acid (extreme caution required)
- Inspect regularly for micro-cracks, especially at bend points
- Replace tubes if any surface damage is detected, as this can lead to failure

PERGUNTAS FREQUENTES
Q: What is a clear U-shaped quartz tube used for?
A: U-shaped quartz tubes are primarily used in UV disinfection systems, laboratory analytical equipment, infrared heating applications, and specialized scientific instruments. Their bent configuration allows for compact design in equipment where space is limited, creates continuous flow paths for gases or liquids, and enables specific optical or thermal paths required in specialized equipment.
Q: What are the standard sizes for transparent bent quartz glass tubes?
A: TOQUARTZ® standard U-shaped quartz tubes are available in inner diameters ranging from 6mm to 25mm with wall thicknesses from 1mm to 3mm. Standard bend radii include 20mm, 30mm, and 50mm. However, we specialize in custom dimensions and can produce U-tubes with inner diameters from 3mm up to 150mm, wall thicknesses from 0.5mm to 5mm, and bend radii from 5mm to 500mm to meet specific application requirements.
Q: Can clear U-shaped quartz tubes withstand vacuum conditions?
A: Yes, TOQUARTZ® U-shaped clear quartz tubes perform exceptionally well in vacuum applications. With proper wall thickness selection, they can withstand vacuum pressures down to 10⁻⁶ Torr without risk of implosion. The excellent mechanical strength of quartz (compressive strength of 1100 MPa) and our stress-relieved bending process ensure structural integrity under vacuum conditions. For high-vacuum applications, we recommend minimum wall thicknesses based on diameter ratios and can provide specialized surface treatments to minimize outgassing.
Q: Can transparent U-shaped quartz tubes be used for high-temperature applications?
A: Yes, TOQUARTZ® transparent U-shaped quartz tubes excel in high-temperature applications. They maintain dimensional stability at continuous operating temperatures up to 1100°C and can withstand short-term exposure to temperatures up to 1300°C. The low thermal expansion coefficient (0.55 × 10⁻⁶/°C) makes them resistant to thermal shock, allowing for rapid temperature changes without cracking. This makes them ideal for industrial heating elements, semiconductor processing equipment, and high-temperature laboratory apparatus.
Q: How do I specify custom U-shaped quartz tube dimensions?
A: To specify custom U-shaped quartz tubes, provide the following dimensions: inner diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD) or wall thickness, bend radius (measured to tube centerline), leg lengths (from bend center to each end), and any special end treatments (fire-polished, ground flat, flared, etc.). For complex geometries, we can work directly from your technical drawings or CAD files. Our engineering team is available to assist with design optimization and recommend specifications based on your application requirements.
