TG 209 F3 Tarsus^®

The easy-to-use and cost-effective thermo-microbalance

Together with the DSC 200 F3 Maia®, the new thermo-microbalance, TG 209 F3 Tarsus, represents a cost-effective overall concept, tailored not only to the quality assurance of polymers but also to routine applications in the fields of organic chemistry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food.

This new basic instrument for thermogravimetric measurements operates between room temperature and 1000°C with freely selectable heating rates from 0.001 K/min up to 50 K/min. The accurate sample temperature is detected by a thermocouple in direct contact with the sample crucible. Through the reliable vertical construction, the thermo-balance as a top-loader, is easy and safe to use, with no hang-down wires or exposed fragile parts.

The calculated DTA-signal c-DTA® (option) is ideal for temperature calibration. During sample measurements it yields important information regarding endothermal processes (e.g. vaporization with mass loss or melting without mass loss) as well as exothermal reactions.
