This rapid microwave ashing system consists of a microwave heating system containing a 5 L chamber which can be heated to 1000 °C or a 1,8 L chamber which can be heated to 1200 °C using microwave energy.

• Internal temperature calibration software
• Integral dual thermocouple Temperature Control System for either single set-point temperature or eight segmented ramping temperature control programs
• Two RS232C 9-pin serial interfaces for option balance and external computer and one 25-pin parallel port for optional printer

The unit maintains 2,8 m³ of air flow per minute through the microwave cavity to rapidly ash materials and remove combustion by-products. Program storing, processing and reporting weight data and % Ash, % LOI, % ROI, % LOD, %Fixed, %Volatile and %Total Residue to the instrument display, printer or external computer.
