60 Series

DSC noise of less than 1µWSample: Polypropylene 30μgThe DSC-60 realizes noise level of less than 1µ W byusing the high-resolution A/D converter, reexaminingthe temperature control theory, and improving thermalconductivity from the heater. Accordingly, a trace ofsample can be measured and a slight change can bedetected as a large peak.New furnace unit of DSC-60The DSC-60 comes standardwith a furnace which is reducedheat capacity and a liquidnitrogen cooling chamber.These features improve thetemperature controlHeaterperformance and allow rapidcooling.FurnaceHeat FlowHeat Transfer PlateLiquid NitrogenHeat Radiating FinsCooling FansFast coolingPrecise temperature control24°C–50°C–100°C(–10°C/min)0.0 2.0 4.0 6.0Time [min]–140°CTemp°C50.00.0–50.0–100.0–150.0The DSC-60 hasattained fast coolingby dramaticallyreducing furnace heatcapacity andcombining the furnaceand the cooling devicein one unit.The sample is cooledby 35°C/min. at 0°Cand by 10°C/min.at -70°C.Other modelsAs result of the newdevelopment of a newfurnace and temperaturecontrol unit based onthe "heating whilecooling" concept,precise temperaturecontrol becameavailable. This enablesusers to create multiplestep temperatureprograms for variousapplications.Sample setting temperature optionTemperatureSamplesettingtemperatureRoomtemperatureIncrease/decreasetemperaturequickly–150°CHold the sample settingtemperature(Insert the sample.)Increase/decreasetemperature byfollowing the givenprogramStart measurementTimeDSC-60 SpecificationsMeasurement principleTemperature rangeMeasurement rangeCooling timeNoise levelAtmosphereDimensions and weightPower supplyHeat-flux type-140 to 600°C (With standard cooling chamber and using liquid nitrogen)± 40 mWApprox. 6 min.

To solve suchinconvenience, the DSC-60 provides a newsample setting temperature option.5
