Product Overview

Automatic Isoperibol Bomb Calorimeter model IP-3 is rugged and heavy duty model which combines the best in Isoperibol technology designed for daily regular analysis. It precisely measures Gross Calorific Value (GCV) in a wide range of solid and liquid samples — including coal, biomass, petroleum products, bio-oils, and high-CV fuels. 

 

Designed for maximum productivity and ease of use, the system combines Isoperibol technology with a closed loop, software controlled, hands free water circulation system, automatic temperature adjustment, ignition, end of experiment and result calculation without manual intervention. It has a temperature resolution of 0.0001°C. The instrument complies to the latest ASTM D5865, ….. IS:17654 etc standards. The corrosion-resistant, stabilized steel oxygen bomb is pressure-tested and certified to ASTM E144 and BIS standards to comply to the latest safety standards. The integrated refrigeration system ensures stable operating conditions throughout every test.

 

The instrument supports multiple operating modes — Precision, Predictive, and more — enabling up to 6–8 tests per hour. A Windows-based software interface allows seamless connectivity with weighing balances, printers, and PCs, with auto weight transfer and results reported in cal/g, Kcal/Kg, BTU/lb, and MJ/Kg. Internal memory stores over 1,000 test results, with export options via SD card, USB, and Ethernet for effortless data management.

 

  • Fully Automatic Microprocessor based designed to be configured as a Stand Alone unit or Computer Controlled.
  • The instrument automatically fills water from the Chiller, Adjusts Water Temperature, starts the Stirrer, initiates Fire after temperature stabilization, ends the experiment after maximum temperature has been achieved, drains water back into the chiller, performs calculations and displays results, etc. without any manual intervention 
  • The Combustion Bomb is fabricated from Stabilized Steel, thick walled and resistant to halogen, corrosion and acids. They are tested at high pressure and supplied with test and safety certificate as per ASTM E144, BIS guidelines. Various type of Combustion Bomb can be used in the instrument. 
  • Wide range of user specific Combustion Bomb designs available which are simply plug and play design.
  • Choice of display available as per customer requirement
  • A variety of crucible types and designs viz. Ni-Cr Alloy, Quartz, Nickel, Platinum etc. along with Gelatin Capsules and Fuel Cells can be used.
  • Features a Fully Automatic, Hands free, closed loop, software controlled water circulation system to fill and drain water in the instrument The cavity surrounding the bucket (jacket) is filled and drained automatically with water.
  • Integrated Water Chiller for closed loop water circulation.
  • The instrument is CE Certified.
  • Various types of Solid and Liquid samples viz. Coal, Wood, Soil, Bio-Mass, Petrol, Diesel, LSHS, Bio-oils,      Furnace Oil etc along with High CV samples (>10KCal/g) can be measured. 
  • Bomb washings can be collected for acid correction by titration method.
  • An automatic software controlled Bomb lift makes ensures easy loading and unloading of Combustion Bomb
  • Multiple user selective operating modes viz. Precision Mode, Predictive Mode, etc performs 6-8 experiments per hour. 
  • The Software should automatically keep track of number of times bomb have been fired. Built-in auto counter must aid in the tracking of routine maintenance and other expendable components.
  • Automatic Correction facility for Acid or % Nitrogen, fuse wire, sulphur, moisture, spike weight, ash and hydrogen for further calculation of CV. Provision of correction of GCV based on N, H, & S content of sample also available.
  • Data saved in a variety of devices viz. Internal   Memory, SD Card, Pen Drive and can be shared thru   Ethernet.
  • The Instruments features Windows based easy to use software which can be linked to PC, Printer, Weighing   Scale for auto weight transfer. GCV Results in customized format are saved in HDD which can be printed as required. It has large data storage facility.
  • The powerful and user friendly software  provides a wide range of reporting Units like cal/gram, Kcal/Kg, Btu/lb, MJ/Kg etc.. Another added feature is Report Customization as per requirement.
