Automatic sample changer An automatic sample changer forup to 20 samples is optionally available. The sample changer guarantees optimal crucible place-ment and maximum throughput.Preprogramming allows measure- ments to be carried out during thenight or weekend. The software canautomatically carry out analysesusing predefined macros. Various sensors BeFlat The DSC 404 F3 Pegasus
® can beequipped with different sensortypes. DTA sensors can, for exam-ple, be used for routine tests onaggressive sample substances. TheDSC and DSC-c
p sensors are usedfor most tests and allow quantita-tive measurements of transforma-tion enthalpies. The c
p versionsadditionally allow determination ofthe specific heat with high accuracy.Various thermocouple types allowoptimum sensitivity and timeconstants in all temperature ranges. Sensors can be changed in less thana minute by the operator.
® and DSC correction Innovative software features such as BeFlat
® and DSC correction allowfor a fully automatic baseline correc-tion as well as correction for systemtime constants and thermal resist-ances. These features can be opti-mized for your specific measure- ment conditions (crucible types,atmosphere, etc.). Furthermore, thetrue raw data signal can beaccessed at any time. Unique sensor adjustmentsystem For optimizing the baseline, a micro-meter adjustment system is inte-grated into the measurement part. The adjustment system allows place-ment of the sensor at the optimalposition within the industrial furnace. This guarantees a stable and repro-ducible baseline without majoradjustment efforts. DSC-c
