IKA C 6000 isoperibol Package 2/12 - Manual (Page 7)

7
The IKA ® C 6000 global standards/isoperibol
calorimeter system is used for calorifi c value
determination of solid and liquid substances.
This is done by placing a known quantity of a
substance in a decomposition vessel which is
surrounded by a water jacket. The sample is then
combusted in an oxygen atmosphere . The calorifi c
value of the sample can then be calculated from
the resulting increase in temperature, the sample
mass and the known thermal capacity of the
overall system.
The IKA
® C 6000 global standards/isoperibol
calorimeter system is subject to the Pressure
Vessel Directive 97/23/EC. Comply with the safety
instructions accordingly.
For adaptation to individual laboratory tasks, use
original IKA ® consumables and accessories.
Correct use
and the section „The standard calorimetric
procedure“ describes the essentials of calorimetry.
The calorimeter system is ready to perform
measurements once you have completed the
procedures in the section „Setting up and
commissioning“: - „Preparing a measurement“
and „Starting a measurement“.
Numbers 1, 2, 3 etc. indicate operating instructions
in the following sections. These must always be
carried out in the specifi ed sequence.
In this chapter you can fi nd out how to work
through these Operating Instructions most
effectively to be able to work reliably with the
calorimeter system.
The instructions in the section „Safety
instructions“ must be complied with.
The chapters are designed for you to work through
them in order.
The section „Transport, storage“ is relevant for
system reliability and for ensuring high measuring
accuracy. The section „Description of system
components“ describes the system components,

System properties
The calorimeter system IKA ® C 6000 global
standards/isoperibol is routinely used for deter-
mination of gross calorifi c values of solid and
liquid substances. The accessories of the system
ensure customized adaptation to laboratory tasks.
The system is characterized by the following
features:
• Relieves you of routine tasks through automated
measurement procedure
• Integral oxygen fi lling/degassing
• Automatic detection of decomposition vessel
• Operation without the cooling unit: Connection
to a water faucet with the pressure valve IKA ®
C 25; temperature range 12 °C upto 27 °C;
water consumption per measurement about 4 l;
water pressure max. 1 bar upto 1,5 bar.
