Sample preparation: Fusion |
The R series is a smaller than the M series and is designed for lower sample out put. The Phoenix R series also uses a modular system of construction so that analysis can be optimised from a single sample model up to a 3-position machine.
Samples are dissolved and mixed into a lithium borate flux at temperatures ranging from 300 to 1600 degrees Celsius. (Typical fusion temperature is 1050 degrees Celsius) This is done over oxygen-enriched flames using specially designed burners. The sample is automatically poured into pre-heated moulds and cooled.
FEATURES:
- INDIVIDUAL BURNER SELECTION
- VARIABLE SPEED SWIRL ACTION
- FULLY REGULATED AIR COOLING (2 STAGE)
- RESET AT ANY TIME
- CAN BE USED AT HIGH ALTITUDE WITHOUT MODIFICATION
- SEPARATE MOULD HEATING
- CAN HEAT MOULDS UP TO 180GM
- AUTO-LOCK CRUCIBLE HOLDERS
- INDIVIDUAL BURNER MANIFOLDS
