The MPS11 has been designed with both safety and
ease of operation in mind, making it ideal for use in
education. Supplied with a safe, spirit filled mercury free
thermometer, the low toxic blue spirit will not pose a
health hazard in the event of a breakage. Easy to follow
instructions are printed directly on to the apparatus and
are available in most European languages.
With a manually adjustable heating rate, the MPS11
will rapidly heat samples up to 20°C (68°F) per minute
to the melt temperature and up to the maximum
temperature of 250°C (482°F). Accurate readings to
within 1°C (34°F) of the melt temperature can be
achieved by using a slower heating rate of between
1 and 10°C (50°F) per minute.
Up to 3 samples can be viewed and tested at any one
time. Samples are illuminated by a bright white LED
and viewed via a magnifying lens. The magnifying lens
can be detached for cleaning using the simple to
follow instructions printed on to the instrument.
