I think you'd find that solder melts below this temperature
so you are *very* unlikely to find any electronics kit that
will cope.

Hi all,
apologize for asking for some hardware but maybe somebody
knows a
scanner that can stand 700 C.
A customer of mine needs such a scanner for a lab (that
works with
viruses) that will be heated daily up to this
temperature.
I think you will be hard-pressed to find many electronic
devices that
can handle such operating temperatures. Most electronics
are
considered rated for "extreme environments" if they
operate in the
range of -30C to +85C. Your requirements are almost 10 x
that.
Even the daytime temperature on the surface of the moon is
only about
107C, so even NASA didn't have to worry about such heat
for
electronics. I think Venus is around 480C.
What you're looking for would be so highly specialized
that I imagine
it would have to be custom built and by that I mean one
would likely
put a normal scanner in a custom, cooled enclosure.
I would say put the scanner in the office next to the lab.
