- Gas Flow Control
In general, the gas flow can be controlled with mass flow controllers. These are installed in the 3 gas flow channels (flow channels for 2 purge gases and 1 inert gas). Optionally, an additional channel is available, which provides optimum control of the atmosphere around the sample and also serves for complex analyses. Well defined gas flow conditions are crucial for accurate interpretation of the measured effects, e.g., to differentiate between oxidation and pyrolysis reactions.
- Data Outputs:
TGA, DSC, DTA, DTG
Simultaneous DSC/TGA measurements in both furnaces (configurable)
