Termogravimetri organik, inorganik ve sentetik malzemeler analiz etmek için standart bir yöntemdir. Genel olarak Termogravimetrik analizi kullanıcı tanımlı bir sıcaklık ya da ısıtma işlemi sırasında ağırlık kaybı ölçümü anlamına gelmektedir.
ELTRA TGA analyzers are an ideal alternative to standard laboratory ovens and muffle furnaces for thermogravimetric analysis. Thanks to a programmable furnace that is connected to an integrated balance, heating and weighing are combined in one instrument. This saves time-consuming manual work and allows for high sample throughput. In addition, typical parameters such as moisture, ash and volatiles can be determined in one analysis run.
The TGA Thermostep processes up to 19 different samples, typically weighing between 500 mg and 5 g, in one analysis cycle. The surrounding atmosphere and temperature of up to 1,000 °C within the heating chamber can be freely defined by the user during analysis to create a standard operating procedure. The crucible lids, covering of the samples, can be raised or lowered at each stage of the analysis, thus allowing for safe and ASTM-compliant determination of volatiles in coal samples.
The TGA Thermostep is a powerful thermogravimetric analyzer characterized by robust design, high precision and flexibility. It is possible to apply different atmospheres and to use sample weights of up to 5 g. The Thermostep reliably and efficiently measures parameters such as moisture, ash and volatiles according to a user-defined SOP.
Operation of the TGA Thermostep is simple, convenient and safe. After selecting the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in the PC, the sample ID’s can be entered into the software. The samples are then weighed in the crucible at the position assigned to the sample ID in the carousel. After one sample has been weighed, the carousel automatically rotates to the next position and the next registered sample can then be weighed in the crucible. Alternatively, a carousel filled with samples which has been weighed externally, can be placed into the analyzer.
It is also possible to position a second carousel with crucible lids above the crucibles. Once the analysis is finished, a new cycle can be started after a short cool-down period.

The ELTRA TGA Thermostep software provides all necessary features for a fast, easy, safe and reliable thermogravimetric analysis.
The TGA software can provide different content of the TGA measurement
The results table displays the current available measurement data.

Due to the flexible application management the TGA Thermostep can measure TGA parameters in many samples like coal , Kok, Yapı malzemeleri, Gıda ...
The TGA Thermostep can determine the parameter moisture, volatile and ash in one analysis cycle due the automatic placing and removing of lids. The TGA is compliant to ASTM D 7582.
Building materials require the measurement of moisture and loss on ignition (LOI). The LOI can indicate the presence of organic matter or carbonates.
Some foods like pet foods, biscuits, or milk require the measurement of dry mass and ash content. Due to the encapsuled weighing cell even the ash content of fluor could be measured safe and precise.

TGA thermostep basit ve kullanışlıdır. Ölçüm işlemi için, kullanılan sıcaklık, atmosfer ve ısıtma aralıkları bir kez tanımlanmalıdır. Analizi başlatmak için, yazılımda bulunan önceden tanımlanmış proseslerden biri seçilmeli ve numune kroze içerisinde tartılmalıdır. Kalan tüm adımlar otomatik olarak gerçekleşir. Tüm veri işleme, ölçüm sürecinin kontrolü ve sonuç hesaplama işlemleri Windows ® tabanlı yazılımı olan harici bir bilgisayar tarafından yapılır. Nem, uçucu madde ve kül içeriği tayinleri yaklaşık 4 saat sürer.
