Parr Removable Bomb and Bucket Technology emovable bomb calorimeters are the more traditional design most users will recognize. In this design the oxygen bomb and bucket are removed from the calorimeter for loading the sample and filling the bucket with the carefully measured amount of water which absorbs the energy released in the combustion. The choice of bomb style may affect the calorimeter chosen. Bomb choice is dictated by sample size and alloy of construction. These bombs range in sample size from 500 to 12,000 calories per charge, and are offered in different alloys and designs for a...
