Melting point meters

for the determination of the melting point of pulverized substances in glass capillary tubes for identification of the substance.

Principle:

After setting the start temperature (approx. 3 °C less than the expected melting point) the capillary is to be inserted and observed while the instrument is heating up with a heating rate of 1 °C per minute. Report printing can be produced by MPM-software supplied for both models.

Modell MPM-H3

for visual measuring method by observing the specimen in the capillary through a magnifying glass. After reaching the melting point temperature is shown on the digital display. The instrument allows up to 3 successive readings.

Modell MPM-HV3

for optional measurings visual (as m,odel MPM-H3) or fully automatic with graphic presentation of the substance's change during the measuring process.

tracing the report to the device is guaranteed by indicating the device's version with serial number on the report

supervision of the calibration due date by indication on the report

matching of the examined substance and the verifying person by mandatory fields in the software

antiglare lighting of the substance during visual measuring

digital control of temperature

foil keyboard for easy cleaning

short manual (German/English) on the instrument

base adjustable in height

with CE mark
