Thermogravimetric Analyzer – TG 209 F1/ F3 Nevio

Information obtained by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA):

  • Mass changes
  • Decomposition behavior
  • Pyrolysis
  • Solvent content (e.g., water amount)
  • Oxidation
  • Shelf life
  • Thermal kinetics (combined with Kinetics Neo)

Features of the TG 209 F3 Nevio:

SmartMode – You don´t need to be an expert to carry out successful TGA runs

The simplified SmartMode user interface is specifically useful for routine tasks. To start a measurement, all one needs to do is call up the corresponding measurement method and type in the sample-specific information such as sample name and sample mass. If AutoEvaluation (optional) is part of the measurement method, an automatic evaluation of the TGA curve will follow.

c-DTA® signal for monitoring endothermic and exothermic effects

The sample thermocouple of the TG 209 F3Nevio is in direct contact with the sample crucible and therefore able to detect temperature changes inside the sample. This is the prerequisite for calculating the c-DTA® signal, which can also be used for temperature calibration.

Tool-free mounting and dismounting of sample carriers

Depending on the application, various sample carrier types are available. Any of these sample carriers can be changed out by the user in less than one minute.

Robust and reliable thermobalance

The top-loading balance design ensures measurement conditions with very low drift behavior across the entire temperature range from room temperature to 1000°C.

Robust top-loading balance arrangement

Easy accessibility to the sample and crucible as well as the ability to disconnect the sample carrier from the balance during loading or unloading of the sample are only two examples of how safe handling and maximum usability are ensured.

Filter system for trapping decomposition products

For maximum safety, the thermobalance is (optionally) equipped with a large filter system, which traps the decomposition products that are released by the samples.

The automatic sample changer (ASC) makes routine work easy

With the optional automatic sample changer, up to 19 samples can be measured at one go, even if each sample has its own temperature program. In addition, the sample measurements can be evaluated automatically – if this is included in the methods.


 

Features of the TG 209 F1 Nevio:

Innovative software solutions – AutoEvaluation and Identify

The unique AutoEvaluation software feature offers operator-free evaluation of thermogravimetric effects. Identify is a database-driven recognition system for the identification and classification of materials – all it takes is one click.

Direct detection of the sample temperature ‒ determination of endo- and exothermal effects

The sample thermocouple is in direct contact with the sample crucible and records all temperature changes inside the sample. Based on this, a c-DTA® signal can be calculated; this displays caloric effects and can be used for temperature calibration.

1100°C at the sample – the temperature displayed corresponds to the sample temperature

The sample-temperature-control mode allows for achieving the specified maximum temperature for the TG 209 F1 Nevio system of 1100°C at the sample.

Fast, corrosion-resistant ceramic micro furnace

The furnace is able to withstand even halogenated evaporation products. In addition, the low volume of the furnace in combination with the water-cooling provides a much faster cooling speed than air-cooled systems.

Robust top-loading balance arrangement

Easy accessibility to the sample and crucible as well as the ability to disconnect the sample carrier from the balance during loading or unloading of the sample are only two examples of how safe handling and maximum usability are ensured.

Ideally suited for being coupled to evolved gas analyzers

The vacuum-tight design of the instrument, which allows for the software-controlled evacuation and backfilling of inert gas (via the optional AutoVac), is the feature that provides uniform test conditions and ensures reproducible results. In addition, low gas flow rates result in high detection sensitivity as the evolved gases are only slightly diluted.

High sample throughput with the automatic sample changer

The automatic sample changer (ASC) is designed for measuring up to 192 samples (2 x 96) plus 12 extra positions for calibration materials or empty crucibles. The optional piercing device allows for the piercing of aluminum lids shortly before the sample pan is inserted into the furnace.
