The CAL3K-A is the companion to the CAL3K-AP, but with external oxygen filling. This instrument was designed for harsh production environments where the automatic filling is not desired. It is faster than the CAL3K-AP, but less automated
Like the CAL3K-AP, it uses a combination of the Isothermal and Adiabatic calorimetry methods, while still using the dry method, i.e. it is waterless. The minimum determination time is down to 4 minutes.
APPLICATION: It excels in a production environment where 10-12 samples/hour is a standard performance. It applies to all industries and laboratories where a sample can be ignited to determine the calorific energy. Like the CAL3K-AP it applies to food processing, feed stock composition, material and waste analysis, quality control, recycling and alternative energy harvesting.
