Thermogravimetric Analyzer TGA 3000

Thermogravimetric analyzers (TGA) measure weight change (loss or gain) and the rate of weight change as a function of temperature, time, and atmosphere.

Overview

TGA 3000 is an automated instrument which determines Moisture content, Ash content, Volatile content, Loss on Ignition (LOI) and Fixed Carbon content in a wide range of Organic, Inorganic and Synthetic materials.

Thermogravimetric analysis replaces the traditional analytical techniques that are slow, labor intensive and involve several steps with multiple laboratory equipment such us muffle furnaces, ovens and balances.

The TGA 3000 with integrated balance combines drying, ashing and weighing processes. This improves the efficiency, precision and provides high sample throughput.

The TGA 3000 is applicable in various industries and applications, including coal, coke, ores, cement, lime, foodstuffs, feeds and many more.

Description
Maximum Productivity
  • 19+1 reference position allows for high sample throughput rates,
Furnace
  • Programmable heating ramp rates as per test methods
  • After completion of analysis, cooling process is automatically started with user programmable furnace lid opening, to improve the cool down time
Exceptional Performance
  • The pneumatic carousel control mechanism increases long-term reliability by eliminating oscillation and increasing position accuracy. Automatic control of the furnace atmosphere and programmable gas flow rates (air, nitrogen or oxygen).
Powerful Heating Elements
  • High-power heating elements provide rapid temperature rise and excellent stability. The integrated multi-element design ensures that temperatures are uniform throughout the furnace chamber.
Dual carousel mechanism
  • Dual carousel mechanism for holding crucibles and crucible covers, automatic end point recognition, user programmable method parameters as well as skipping of empty crucibles to optimize analysis time.
Integrated Precision Balance
  • Balance isolated from heat and ambient atmosphere for stable and precise measurements. Scale accurate to 0.1 mg for high precision weight measurements.
Thermocouples
  • The system is supplied with “4” Thermocouples:
  • 1st thermocouple for measuring Sample Temperature,
  • 2nd Thermocouple for upper furnace Temperature measurement,
  • 3rd thermocouple is for lower furnace Temperature measurement and
  • 4th thermocouple for Temperature Cross Verification.
Software
  • Ensures precise control and operation of the analyzer
  • Tracks the samples and measurement data throughout the analysis process
  • Graphic display of temperature vs. weight loss measurements
  • Retrieval of sample related information at any given time during analysis
  • During analytical cycle, display of current parameters such as the real time furnace temperature, sample status and time remaining
