„Ignition aids“ tab
You can use an ignition aid to ensure that samp-
les are correctly and reliably ignited. The external
energy contributed by the aid must be included
when calculating the calorifi c value.
Ignition aids:
Select an ignition aid from the list:
Note: These predefi ned ignition aids cannot be
changed.
An energy value is defi ned for each ignition aid;
this value is included automatically in the calcu-
lation of the calorifi c values. If you select „user-
defi ned“ this energy value can also be changed at
the preparation of each individual measurement.
The default setting is „IKA ignition thread“
You can modify the list or add new ignition aids
to it.. Select an ignition aid and click on the „Edit“
button to activate the input fi elds for this.
You must change the name and the energy valu-
es. Click on „Load“ to modify the selected igniti-
on aid. Click on „Add“ to add a new ignition aid
to the list with the data that were input. Click on
„Cancel“ to make no changes.

Other Settings
No venting: The venting of the decomposition
vessel after measurement is skipped in order to
facilitate determination of the products of com-
bustion.
Water supply line port: The calorimeter is ope-
rated using a water supply; the internal tempe-
rature regulation parameters must be adjusted
accordingly.
Load parameters: Some parameters from the
previous measurement (Name, User, Properties,
ignition and combustion aid) can be retained
when preparing for a new measurement.
Restart: If a measurement is cancelled prior to
ignition, after rectifying the cause of the cancel-
lation you can restart the measurement without
having to prepare a new measurement.

purging: Two fi lling and emptying cycles are
performed before fi lling with oxygen, in order
that purging with oxygen will reduce the propor-
tion of nitrogen remaining in the decomposition
vessel to an insignifi cant residue.
