Melting Point, Digital, Advanced, SMP30
Maximum temperature 400¡C
Patented head up display
Integrated cooling 350¡C to 50¡C in 10 minutes
Large easy to read user friendly interface
Designed for fast accurate determination of melting points, the SMP30 can takethree samples simultaneously within the optimised heating block, the unit hasa maximum temperature of 400¡C. To allow maximumflexibility a plateau facility is included with variable ramp rate between 0.5and 10¡C in 0.1¡C increments. The tubes are illuminated with bright white LED’s to give the clearest viewof the samples during the melt. The block has been designed for easy accessfor cleaning, the front of the head is fully removable to allow full access to the micro furnace.
The SMP30 has a large clear back lit alphanumeric LCD display, running themenu system which clearly guides you through the melting process withcomprehensive directions.Language is switchable between English, German,French and Italian. It is possible to record up to 8 events in memory for eachof the three sample tubes, as well as being temperature stamped these events are also date and timerecorded, thanks to the integrated real time clock.
The SMP30 features the patent pending head up display, this unique featuredisplays a floating image of the block temperature, visible through theeyepiece, in front of the tubes. The head up display eliminates the need for theuser to keep switching their gaze between the tubes and the temperaturedisplay, through the eyepiece they can now see both at once.
To allow the most comfortable viewing angle the SMP30 features a two stagehead adjustment, in the first movement the head is pulled towards the user,then in a separate motion the angle of the head can be adjusted by up to 126¡,and will automatically hold in place due to the torsion resistant design tocreate the perfect viewing angle. The head can then be stored safely back within the body of the unit forstorage.
The design of the unit has lots of other useful features such as slots forstoring pre-prepared samples and a storage draw to hold a container ofcapillary tubes.
An accessory printer is available separately to produce a written record ofthe melt, and all units are supplied with a calibration certificate showingindividual serial numbers for traceability.
