TGA-2000: Dual Carousel configuration

For applications with volatiles and covers, it places and removes covers on crucibles automatically inside the furnace, no operator attendance needed.

(Patended design)

Advantages:

The dual carousel configuration allows automatic installation and removal of crucible-covers inside the furnace.
- This prevents sample oxidizing and provides better volatile matter accuracy in addition to automation, (It works unattended).
- No danger to operator opening furnace at 600 ºC.No danger of falling covers inside furnace.
- Reduced analysis time in coal as the TGA does not go down from 900-950 ºC to 600ºC to remove covers.
Carousel, balance pedestal, and crucibles are made from a special alloy metal that all have a (2) year warranty.
Temperature regulation is plus/minus one degree Centigrade.
Extremely robust mechanical design.
Exceptional and un-surpassed reliability.
Dependable Sartorius balance.
Well known Eurotherm temperature controller.
The modular chassis architecture reduces weight and makes it easier the access for service.
The control by PC allows flexibility, ease of use and future modifications to the software to be always up to date.
