Additional Specifications
TGA design:
A vertical design with a high sensitivity balance and quick response furnace. The balance is located above the furnace and is thermally isolated from it. A precision hang-down wire is suspended from the balance down into the furnace. At the end of the hang-down wire is the sample pan. The sample pan’s position is reproducible.
Sample Atmosphere:
Static or dynamic, including nitrogen, argon, helium, carbon dioxide, air, oxygen, or other inert or reactive gases.
Analyses done at normal or reduced pressures.
Standard furnace
Temperature Range: Subambient to 1000 °C
Scanning Rates: 0.1 °C/minute to 200 °C/minute
Temperature Precision: ±2 °C
High temperature furnace
Temperature Range: 50 °C to 1500 °C
Scanning Rates: 0.1 °C/minute to 50 °C/minute
Temperature Precision: ±5 °C
Balance
Tare: Reproducible to ±2 Μg
Sensitivity: 0.1 Μg
Accuracy: Better than 0.02%
Precision: 0.001%
Capacity: 1300 mg
Hang-down wires:
High temperature quartz, nichrome, or platinum
Sample pans:
Standard Furnace: Platinum or Ceramic with capacity of 60 ΜL
High Temperature Furnace: Platinum or Ceramic with capacity of 250 ΜL
Sample mass range:
Up to 1300 mg
Cooling
Forced air cooled with an external fan and internal booster purge
Standard Furnace: 1000 °C to 40 °C in less than 15 minutes under normal operation
High Temp Furnace: 1500 °C to 100 °C in less than 30 minutes under normal operation
User control:
Operates on Pyris software, fully tested on Windows® operating system.
Hyphenated techniques Compatible with the Spectrum One as well as most other FT-IRs and mass spectrometers (MS).
Gas switching:
Fast, thorough and efficient due to reduced furnace volume. Less than 3 minutes to purge the sample area of ambient gases (remove 99% of oxygen) and replace the volume with an inert purge gas. 10 minutes to achieve a 99.99% oxygen-free environment.
Quality assurance:
Developed under ISO 9000
