Automatic Bomb Calorimeter
Fully Automated High-Precision Calorimetry System
Athena Instruments introduces the Automatic Bomb Calorimeter AT-1160, a robust and precision-engineered microprocessor-controlled system specifically designed for the accurate determination of the gross calorific value (GCV) and heat of combustion of solid and liquid fuels. Built in accordance with BS 1016 and IP 12/63 T standards, this calorimeter ensures exceptional measurement accuracy, repeatability, and ease of use across industries including petroleum, coal, chemical processing, academic research, and quality control laboratories.
Featuring an integrated thermal printer and high-resolution temperature detection, the AT-1160 delivers fully automated analysis with minimal operator intervention. Certified to meet global compliance standards including CE, ISO 9001:2015, and FDA, it offers reliable, lab-ready performance with robust safety features.
Key Features :
- Fully Automatic Operation: Automated measurement, ignition, temperature rise detection, and calculation of calorific value with inbuilt microprocessor control.
- High-Resolution Measurement: Temperature resolution of 0.001 °C for precise and repeatable results.
- Integrated Data Handling: Built-in thermal printer for test reports, USB interface for PC connectivity, and internal memory for up to 1000 test logs with date/time stamps.
- User-Friendly Interface: 128 x 64 graphical LCD with 20-key tactile keypad for easy operation and programming.
- Real-Time Clock: Battery-backed clock ensures reliable, time-stamped data logging.
- Compact, Modular Design: Smallest footprint in its class with a robust, easy-to-install design for long-term reliability.
- Certified Quality: CE certified, ISO 9001:2015 compliant, FDA approved, BIS certified, ISO 80079-36:2016 compliant, and more.
