Product Specification
The Automatic Digital Melting Point Apparatus (MT-176 Series) is a sophisticated laboratory instrument developed for fully automatic determination of melting points of pharmaceutical compounds, chemicals, and research samples. Manufactured by Micro Technologies, the instrument combines advanced optical sensing technology with microprocessor-controlled temperature regulation to deliver highly accurate, repeatable, and reliable analytical results.
The apparatus incorporates a miniature furnace with an advanced air circulation heating system, providing rapid, uniform, and stable temperature distribution throughout the heating cycle. A microprocessor-controlled closed-loop PID controller continuously monitors and regulates temperature to ensure exceptional accuracy during melting point analysis.
The MT-176 Series uses a Grade A PT-100 platinum temperature sensor to provide precise temperature measurement from ambient temperature up to 350°C. Programmable heating ramp rates from 2°C to 10°C per minute allow users to optimize testing conditions for different sample types.
Unlike conventional melting point apparatus, the MT-176 features an automatic optical detection system based on opto-coupled light transmission technology. Once the START key is pressed, the instrument automatically detects the melting point without operator intervention. When melting occurs, the sample temperature is automatically recorded, displayed, and retained on the digital panel until the RESET key is pressed.
The instrument supports one capillary tube with a 1.4 mm capillary diameter and features a 3-digit, 4-digit LCD display for clear and accurate temperature indication. The firmware is fully protected against power interruptions, ensuring reliable operation even during unexpected power failures.
The instrument also includes simultaneous audio and visual indications when the sample reaches its melting point, improving user convenience and laboratory efficiency. Due to its optical transmission principle, the apparatus is recommended for clear and transparent samples and is not suitable for dark-colored samples.
Manufactured by Micro Technologies, every Automatic Digital Melting Point Apparatus undergoes stringent quality inspection to ensure dependable performance, accurate temperature control, and long operational life. The MT-176 Series is widely used in pharmaceutical industries, chemical laboratories, research institutes, universities, hospitals, food testing laboratories, and industrial quality control departments.
