Product catalog summary
Overview
The document discusses the design and application of the Parr Instrument Company's Series 1341 Plain Jacket Oxygen Combustion Calorimeters, which have been used for over 120 years to measure the calorific value of various materials.

Specifications
The 1341 Calorimeter is a static jacket instrument operating at room temperature, designed for occasional calorific tests. It is suitable for solid and liquid samples and is particularly recommended for users with infrequent testing needs. The calorimeter is easy to set up and disassemble, making it ideal for intermittent use.

Applications
The calorimeter is used to determine the calorific value of coal, oil, foodstuffs, and other materials that can be safely burned in an oxygen bomb. It is compliant with ASTM Standard Test Method D5865 for coal and coke. The device is also suitable for educational purposes, providing a hands-on experience in calorimetry.

Features
The 1341 Calorimeter includes a high-strength fiberglass jacket with effective thermal insulation, a stirring mechanism, and a digital thermometer for temperature measurement. It comes with a Parr 6775 Digital Thermometer and a 2901 Ignition Unit. The calorimeter offers good repeatability, with standard deviations not exceeding 0.3% when using uniform samples.

Limitations
The calorimeter requires manual temperature recording and calculation, which can be automated with the optional Parr 6772 Calorimetric Thermometer. It performs slower than automatic models, completing 10-12 tests in an eight-hour day.

Ordering Information
Models are available for different voltages (115V and 230V) and include necessary components like the 1108 Oxygen Bomb and the 2901 Ignition Unit. A spare parts kit is also available.

Conclusion
The 1341 Calorimeter is a cost-effective solution for laboratories requiring occasional calorific testing, offering reliable performance and ease of use.

Bomb Calorimetry A fundamental test of great significance to anyone concerned with the production or utilization of solid or liquid fuels. One of the most important tests in the evaluation of materials which are burned as fuels is the determination of the heat of combustion, or calorific value. These measurements can be made quickly and accurately in Parr oxygen bomb calorimeters, utilizing either the latest in automatic calorimetric equipment or in simple calorimeters in which all elements have been reduced to their fundamental forms. Uses for these calorimeters extend into any chemical, physical,...
