Description
Features
- Equipped with an automated measurement unit, a series of operations from the start of measurement after sample loading to the end of measurement are performed automatically.
- Automatic mechanism of loading test weight and residue emptying reduce operator burden and ensure operation safety, and shortening work time.
- Preheating conditions (preheating time, piston holding position, and holding time) can be set arbitrarily to maintain a constant actual preheating time until measurement starts, enabling stable measurement.
- The furnace cylinder cleaning unit enables one touch cleaning of the furnace body by setting gauze Features.
