Digital Melting Point
PRECISION DIGITAL MELTING POINT APPARATUS - MSI This is a compact instrument designed for accurate determinations of melting points of solid samples. The unit consistsof a built-in magnetic stirrer, and electronic controller for adjusting the rate of heating of silicon oil bath, an ON/OFF switch, a pilot lamp, magnifier, a glare free illuminated background, a high/low range selector switch and a digital temp indicator with PT -100 sensor. The outer body is made of 304 grade s. s. The silicon bath consists of a plain cylindrical container of corning glass having capacity about 200ml. It is fitted with a special type of oil immersion heater. The rate of heating of the bath can be precisely adjusted by the controller on the panel. The tips of the capillaries filled with sample powders can be kept suspended in the oil bath through the cover. The tips can be clearly observed through the magnifier on the illuminated background of the bath. The range of the apparatus is from about 2 deg. C above room temperature upto 300 deg. C with readability 1 deg. C. the apparatus supplied with 175ml silicon oil for use upto 300 deg.C and a box of capillaries. It can also be sued for determination of boiling points, flow points and molecula
