Drying Oven
Product Code : LSK-CL-10596
Drying Oven (SKU LSK-CL-10596) is a 225-litre hot-air oven for drying large batches of aggregate and soil samples before grading, density and moisture tests. It suits concrete and materials-testing labs in polytechnics, engineering colleges and TVET institutes that train civil engineering technicians. As a TVET lab equipment supplier based in Ambala, India, Science Lab Supplies supplies this oven to training institutes, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The oven has a stainless steel interior joined by argon-arc welding, a steel-sheet exterior and blower-fan air circulation through ducted channels. A microcomputer PID controller with timer and digital display sets the temperature, and the door has a silicone gasket and a thermal glass window for watching samples.

Applications and Experiments for the Drying Oven
The oven dries aggregate and soil samples to constant mass, so that moisture content, water absorption, specific gravity and grading results are worked out on dry weight. In training labs it supports concrete, aggregate and soil practicals on civil engineering diploma, degree and TVET programmes.
- Diploma and B.E./B.Tech civil engineering: oven-drying aggregates before sieve analysis and density tests.
- Concrete technology practicals: moisture content and water absorption of fine and coarse aggregate.
- TVET civil engineering modules: drying soil for water content alongside compaction and Atterberg limit tests.
Trays and inner surfaces become hot at working temperatures, so students should use heat-resistant gloves under supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The oven is supplied as described above: the 225-litre chamber with three shelves, the PID controller with timer and digital display, and the blower air circulation system. A balance and sample containers, which moisture tests also need, are separate items and can be added to the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can be requested for a single oven or for several units for a lab, and each one states the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested. Sieves, a balance or other concrete lab items can be quoted alongside it.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia and Peru. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). To start an enquiry, write through the contact page, add the oven to the enquiry cart, or see the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Drying Oven used for?
It dries large quantities of aggregate and soil samples at a set temperature between 50 and 300 °C, so that moisture content and other results in concrete and soil labs are calculated on a dry-mass basis.
How many shelves does the oven have?
Three shelves are provided and the chamber has four shelf positions, so spacing can be changed for deeper trays.
Who supplies the Drying Oven?
Science Lab Supplies supplies this oven from Ambala, India. Its team prepares quotations for training institutes, colleges, contractors and distributors, with packing and delivery time stated for each order.
Can the oven be included in a lab tender?
Yes. Send the tender specification, quantity and delivery location through the contact page, and the quotation will list this oven item by item with any other concrete lab equipment you need.
Related Concrete and Aggregate Testing Equipment
Aggregate samples pass through several tests before and after oven drying. These four items from the Concrete Laboratory range cover sample reduction, density and abrasion testing, so a training lab can plan a complete aggregate bench on one quotation.
- Sample Splitters (Riffle Boxes) — reduce a field sample to a representative test portion.
- Coarse Aggregate Density Test Set — density and absorption tests based on oven-dry mass.
- Bulk Density Kit — measures the bulk density of dried aggregate.
- Los Angeles Abrasion Machine — abrasion resistance test on graded, dried aggregate.
