Key Features
- Measures TG and DSC signals simultaneously in a single run — thermal stability, oxidation/reduction, decomposition kinetics, melting and crystallization, glass transition and more, without needing separate TGA and DSC instruments
- Temperature range from room temperature up to 1250°C or 1550°C depending on model, with PID-controlled heating from 0.1 to 100°C/min and 0.01°C temperature resolution
- High-precision microbalance: 1µg accuracy, 0.1µg resolution, 0.01mg to 3g weighing range (expandable to 50g)
- Dual-coil high-temperature alloy furnace winding and a precious-metal-alloy pan sensor for oxidation and corrosion resistance, with the microbalance isolated from furnace heat and vibration for measurement stability
- 7-inch full-color touchscreen with on-screen TG calibration, bidirectional USB software control, and automatic rapid cooling (≤30 minutes from 1000°C to 50°C)
- Built-in dual gas flowmeters with switching and flow-rate control; standards compliance includes ASTM D3386, ASTM D696, ASTM E831, DIN 51045-3 and multiple GB/T standards
About the STA 1250/1600 Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer
The STA 1250/1600 from ThermCon Scientific, Germany, is a simultaneous thermal analyzer that measures TG and DSC signals together in a single run. That covers thermal stability, oxidation/reduction, decomposition kinetics, melting and crystallization, glass transition and more, without needing separate TGA and DSC instruments.
The furnace reaches 1250 °C or 1550 °C depending on model, with PID-controlled heating from 0.1 to 100 °C/min and 0.01 °C temperature resolution. The microbalance has 1 µg accuracy and 0.1 µg resolution over a 0.01 mg to 3 g weighing range (expandable to 50 g), and it is isolated from furnace heat and vibration for measurement stability. A 7-inch full-color touchscreen provides on-screen TG calibration, with bidirectional USB software control and automatic rapid cooling.
