- Measures melting temperature, heat of fusion, latent heat of melting, glass transition temperature, crystalline phase transition temperature and energy, precipitation energy and temperature
- Determines the amount of energy absorbed or released by a sample when it is heated or cooled, providing quantitative and qualitative data on endothermic and exothermic processes.
- Works on power compensation temperature null principle.
- Comprises of independent dual furnaces constructed of Platinum-Iridium alloys with independent platinum resistance.
- Comprises of distributed, platinum resistance thermometers.
- Range: room temperature to 270 °C
- Accuracy / Precision ± 0.1 °C/ ±0 .01 °C.
- Scanning rates: Heating /cooling 0.01 °C to 500 °C / min.
