The Series 340 Thermogravimetric Analyzer
The Series 340 prepASH® thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) automatically measures moisture, ash and loss on ignition at reduced workload and costs. The entire process is monitored and recorded from start to finish in a closed system. The prepASH is designed as an autonomous device and does not require any additional PC, it is available in 3 models.
Combining furnace, high precision balance and automation, the prepASH Series enables a huge reduction in workload through the simultaneous TGA analysis of moisture, ash, and volatiles content. In one working cycle, 12, 19 and even 29 samples are dried and ashed fully, automatically.
