The IKA C 200 is available in multiple configurations to match different application needs. The standard C 200 version includes a basic decomposition vessel for general applications, while the C 200 h version features a halogen-resistant vessel for samples containing chlorine or sulfur. The C 200 auto and C 200 h auto versions include a fully automated water handling system with a recirculating chiller, improving efficiency, reducing preparation time, and ensuring more consistent and reliable results.
Semi-automated Calorimeters
IKA‘s semi-automated calorimeters are laboratory instruments for calorific value determination, combining reliable measurement with partial automation and flexible operation.
Description
Semi-Automated Calorimeters
Semi-automated calorimeters provide a balance between manual operation and automated functionality, offering reliable calorific value determination with greater user control. They are designed for laboratories that require flexible operation, allowing key steps of the process to be handled manually while core measurement functions remain consistent and efficient. This makes them particularly suitable for training environments, educational use, and laboratories with lower sample throughput.
C 200 Calorimeter
The IKA C 200 is a semi-automated combustion calorimeter designed for the determination of gross calorific value in solid and liquid samples. It offers a reliable and flexible solution for laboratories with low sample throughput, as well as for educational and training environments. The system combines manual handling of selected steps with consistent measurement performance, while supporting multiple operating modes for different laboratory requirements.
