Melting Point Apparatus OptiMelt . Automated melting point system · Completely automated operation · PID-controlled temperature ramping · Digital movie of each melt · Stand-alone operation and computer control (USB) · Conforms to Pharmacopeia and GLP · Printer output · OptiMelt (MPA100) ... $2795 (U.S. list) OptiMelt provides a fast and accurate means of automatically determining the melting points and melting ranges of chemical substances. Up to three samples can be analyzed simultaneously. A wide observation window, with an illuminated magnification lens, allows users to observe the samples at all times. A small aluminum heating block is kept under tight computer temperature control, providing extremely linear temperature ramping. A precision Pt RTD sensor provides fast and accurate temperature readings from room temperature to 400 °C, with 0.1 °C resolution. Automated Measurements OptiMelt is specifically designed for unattended operation. It has a built-in digital camera that continuously captures realtime images of the samples, and it uses digital image processing to determine results. The melting points and melting ranges are prominently displayed on the front panel and automatically recorded into memory for later review. OptiMelt provides a dramatic improvement over instruments that rely on optical absorption or reflection techniques. OptiMelt’s high-resolution camera can easily detect minute changes in the optical characteristics of the samples, eliminating the need for an operator to be present. Simple Operation OptiMelt has an intuitive front panel and is very easy to use.
