Navas Instruments TGA - 3000's come standard with these notable differences:
- All parts subjected to heat (carousel, balance pedestal, crucibles and/or covers) are made from a metal alloy to withstand high temperatures
- Temperature regulation is plus/minus one degree Centigrade
- Extremely robust
mechanical design
- Exceptional and
unsurpassed reliability
- Complete brand name
digital precision balance of 0.1 mg sensitivity with
display
- Complete brand name
temperature controller with display
- Service, although seldom required, does not
require highly-trained technicians
- Parts are standard and generally available
locally
This model is
similar to TGA-2000 or TGA-1000 series but with an
additional external balance used to obtain the initial weights of
crucibles, samples and/or covers outside furnace during the
analysis time for increased
throughput.
The TGA-3000
series uses only one PC to manage both the external balance and
the instrument at the same time. This configuration
allows from 20 to 60% more throughput.
OPERATION
During the analysis of the first batch of samples, the initial weights of crucibles, samples and/or covers are obtained in external balance and placed in plastic trays or removable carousels ready for next analysis, thus eliminating
dead loading time.
-
When furnace reaches 60-70 ºC (after cooling, instead of 34 ºC ) the pre-weighed
crucibles with samples are moved by hand from plastic tray
to carousel.
-
Operator presses the start button using the mouse
in the TGA software and the instrument starts immediately
analyzing (does not take need to take the initial weights of
crucibles &
samples, saving 20 or more minutes of loading time).
-
Any number of trays with pre-weighed crucibles
and samples can be prepared during furnace analysis
time.
The productivity center software can work
also with multiple TGA units in a networking
configuration.
Model TGA-3000 uses only one (1) PC to manage both the instrument
and the external balance at the same time.
There are also dual TGA-3000 models with one (1) PC that
controls the two (2) instruments and one (1) external balance at the same time.
Any number of TGA units can be connected in a network for customers with large numbers of samples to analyze.
Metal crucibles can be used and also ceramic crucibles as an option for analysis of some materials
Different sizes of crucibles can be used depending on the size of the sample to be analyzed.
All Navas Instruments thermogravimetric analyzers fully comply with standard methodologies related to
this type TGA analysis
