Thermo Scientific Pycnomatic ATC

  Thermo Scientific Pycnomatic ATC



Pycnomatic is the ultimate development for density measurement of solid materials available from Thermo Fisher Scientific. Based on the technique of gas displacement to measure real density of solid and powders, Pycnomatic delivers unrivalled fast and accurate results. Pycnomatic ATC (Automated Temperature Control) is the unique pycnometer with an integrated temperature control. Pycnomatic is also available without the built-in temperature control system.

   Product Detail


Unrivalled  accuracy of results: experience Pycnomatic precision

Pycnomatic offers extremely precise temperature control through the use of a powerful built-in Peltier element. This device controls the reference and sample chambers’ temperature with a precision of +/- 0.01 °C. It also permits the user to set the analysis temperature in the range from 18.00 °C to 35.00 °C, in steps of 0.01 °C. The accurate temperature control avoids any volume changes that can occur due to room temperature fluctuations during the test thus ensuring accurate and re-producible results without the need of continuous system re-calibrations. In addition, ATC enhances the speed of analysis thanks to a faster temperature equilibration of the measuring gas, thus reaching in a matter of seconds a stable pressure over the sample

Utmost flexibility by real multi-volume 

In density measurement, the best accuracy is produced when the sample volume is matched to the measuring chamber of a gas pycnometer. The shape and characteristics of solid samples can sometimes make it difficult finding the optimal analytical conditions.  A real multi-volume and multi-reference chambers instrument offers utmost flexibility and accuracy, regardless of the available quantity of sample. Pycnomatic features five different sample chambers, ranging from 4 to 100 cc. The user can easily change the chamber volume without any need of service intervention.

Analyze safely powder materials 

Pycnomatic is uniquely designed to eliminate any risk of contaminating valves and tubing which can be a consequence associated with the analysis of fine powders. In the Pycnomatic, venting to atmosphere can be performed through a dedicated outlet port that ensures the pressure drops slowly down to atmospheric value without any risk of either sample loss or system contamination.

 

Three different communication ports to PC, balance and printer

Saves time during sample preparation and report generation. Simple data processing and data storage in electronic format

Flow and pulses of gas or vacuum purging procedures

Flexibility in setting up parameters producing the best accuracy with the solid samples

Large backlit display and comprehensive alphanumeric keyboard

Fast and easy accessibility to all the pages relevant to the analysis, calibration and instrument parameters. Detailed and comprehensive sample identification. No training is required for instrument use

Sample cell and reference volumes separated from the electronics

Unit can be installed in a glove box for use with radioactive samples

Gas loaded first into reference chamber (high pressure) then expanded into sample chamber (low pressure)

Permits the analysis of foams or compressible samples avoiding possible material shrinkage
