GSA PT 10

Fast and reliable measurements

Description

To the point

Our GSA PT 10 series is based on the proven standard design of the Linseis microbalance.
This ultra-sensitive microbalance is available in two versions with 0.1/1ug and 5/ 25 / 35g initial weights.

You can also choose from a wide range of furnaces for measurements from -150 to 1600 °C and UHV (ultra-high vacuum) up to 10 bar.

An optional TG-DSC (Thermogravimetry – Differential Scanning Calorimetry) sensor enables the simultaneous determination of weight change and caloric reaction in one measuring run.
Optional gas and vapor dosing systems as well as measuring devices for residual gas analysis are also available.

Usable vapors and gases are for example: Alcohols, hydrocarbons, aromatics, hydrogen, water, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc.

Unique features

Ultrasensitive microbalance:

Software

Making values visible and comparable

The powerful LINSEIS thermal analysis software, which is based on Microsoft® Windows®, performs the most important function in the preparation, execution and evaluation of thermoanalytical experiments, in addition to the hardware used.
With this software package, Linseis offers a comprehensive solution for programming all device-specific settings and control functions, as well as for data storage and evaluation.
The package was developed by our in-house software specialists and application experts and has been tried and tested over many years.

TG properties

  • Percentage (%) and absolute (mg/ug) change in mass
  • Evaluation of the mass loss
  • Residual mass determination
  • 1st and
    2nd derivative (peak temperature of the mass change)

DSC properties
