Description
Overview
Ash samples with unmatched speed and safety with the Phoenix BLACKTM. With an on-board touch-screen interface you’ll save time and simplify workflow. Two powerful magnetrons heat the cavity which allows for exceptional temperature control and lightning fast ramp times. Make rapid adjustments to reduce out-of-specification products and improve your process control.
Features
-
- Ash up to 15 samples at one time
- Use any type of crucible normally used in conventional ashing systems, even platinum
- Meets requirements of electrical and microwave muffle furnaces
Easy to Use
- Easy to program methods with automatic start time and temperature ramps.
- Pair with balance and printer for automatic results – no more manual calculations.
- IQ/OQ/PQ service available for turnkey validation and audit traceability.
- Automated sulfated ashing – simply place samples in the furnace and press start.
Meets Industry Requirements for Muffle Furnaces
The Phoenix BLACK satisfies requirements for methods that specify “electrically heated” furnaces, and also methods that specify “microwave heated” furnaces.
