Key Features
- The Automatic Proximate Analyzer is programmed to perform complete and automatic analysis of Air Dry Basis Moisture, Ash & Volatile Constituent in Coal
- Latest design allows measurement up to 19 samples in every batch
- Additional furnaces can be connected for increased workload to measures 38 or more samples . All the additional furnaces are programmed to be controlled by a single computer
- Both oxidizing and inert atmospheres can be maintained as per ASTM guidelines. Provision shall be made to introduce a sweep gas or a reactant gas, and to remove product of drying, de-volatilization or combustion.
- The sample balance pedestal, crucible and the crucible covers are made of ceramic material as per ASTM guidelines. The crucible and the turn table is capable of withstanding high-temperatures and different furnace atmospheres and is not susceptible to wrapping at high temperature.
- The furnace is programmed to have maximum temperature control up to 1000°C The furnace cover of the analyser is supported by two shafts for better stability and support.
- Instrument has two thermocouples which includes one thermocouple for over-temperature protection for safety and the other one to measure and record temperature near the test crucible.
- The versatile and powerful software allows the instrument to store minimum 7 programmes for Moisture, Volatile Matter and Ash determination at temperature programmed by the user depending on the nature of sample.
- Powerful software ensures easy and accurate determination of all the set parameters
- Advanced dust suction and exhaust system fitted to remove the exhaust gases generated during the experiment
- High Precision Temperature Controller ensure Controlled, Precise and Quick Temperature rise
- The system can also calculate the the Calorific Value, Fixed Carbon and Hydrogen in the samples based on the values of the parameters obtained
- The instrument is configured with a built-in high Precision Electronic Scale to ensure precise and accurate weighing of the samples
- Latest software features Automatic Data Collection, Tabulation and Printing of all test results
- The instruments allows Complete Window Support
