VWR® Melting Point Apparatus

The VWR^® Melting Point Apparatus is used for determining the melting point of a substance to verify its purity and is optimized to quickly and efficiently heat up to three samples at one time. Easy-to-use touch pad controls with numeric keypad and LCD display for temperature, date and time allow operator to view settings efficiently while monitoring samples through the viewing window. Provides repeatable and accurate results every time. LED lamp illuminates the oven while the oven window provides 8x magnification of samples. All models are available with a NIST-traceable certificate option for temperature and time.

Audible alarm will sound when the set temperature is reached. Safety features include an indefinite heating time out. If ramping phase is not initiated within 30 minutes of reaching the set temperature, the unit returns to standby mode and the heater turns off to prevent indefinite heating. To prevent overheating, there is a maximum temperature timeout. After 30 minutes at the maximum temperature, the unit reverts back to the set temperature to prevent overheating.
