MPS40, $4810, shown
smaller than actual size.
The MPS40 automatic melting point
uses the latest technology in digital
image processing, to accurately
identify the melt of up to 3 samples
simultaneously. The unit comes with
a 145 mm (5.7") color VGA display,
on which the melt can be watched
real time, or the melt video will
automatically be saved as an AVI
file that can be reviewed later, either
on the unit or via PC, providing
traceability long after the sample
has gone. The result can also be
overridden if for any reason you
don’t agree with the result
calculated by the image processing
algorithm.
The MPS40 is fully programmable
via the touch screen display, once
the user has set the plateau
temperature they can select the
ramp rate, between 0.1 and 10°C
(0.2 to 18°F) in 0.1°C (0.2°F)
increments. During use a library of
Q-1
preset methods can be built up to
streamline the method input for
repeat measurements. For materials
where the user is unaware of an
approximate melting point, and
therefore unable to set the plateau
temperature, the MPS40 can be
used in rapid melt mode. During
rapid melt mode a fast scan of the
full temperature range is undertaken
to provide an approximate melt
temperature, then a method will be
automatically programmed with the
appropriate plateau temperature to
allow a more accurate
measurement to be carried out.
The MPS40 has an innovative split
design concept, the unit can be
used as normal or the control side
and the melt side can be separated,
allowing for the maximum in
footprint flexibility. After the samples
have been loaded the melt side of
the unit can be placed at the back
of the bench or even in a fume
cupboard to catch any potentially
dangerous fumes. Once the unit has
been split the control panel side can
be used in two orientations, either
landscape or portrait to allow the
perfect viewing angle whether you
are sat or stood at the bench, the
screen automatically changes
orientation with the unit.
The unit can store up to 200 result
files with videos, if required data can
be easily transferred from the unit to
a flash memory drive or PC via one
of the USB connectors.
The unit has been designed to
include a number of other useful
features such as slots to
accommodate pre-prepared
samples and a draw to house your
unused melting point tubes. Also
included in the draw is a handy
glass cutter, which can be used to
accurately cut tubes in half quickly
and cleanly for users who prefer to
use half tubes.
All units are supplied with a NIST
calibration certificate showing
individual serial numbers.
