The DIL 402 PC runs under a 32-bit
MS® Windows™ software package includ-ing everything
you need to carry out a measurement and evaluate the experimental
data. Through the combination of easy-to-understand menus and
automated routines, a tool has been created that is extremely
user-friendly and, at the same time, allows complicated analyses.
Standard Software Features
MS® Windows™ software: fully compatible
with other MS®Windows™ programs
multitasking: simultaneous measurement and evaluation
multi-moduling: operation of different instruments with
one computer
combined analysis: comparsion and/or evaluation of DTA/DSC,
TG and DIL measurements in one plot
labeling: input and free placement of text elements
free scaling of text elements and evaluation results
calculation of 1st and 2nd derivative
selectable scaling
selectable colors and line types
graphic and data export
storage and restoration of analysis
context-sensitive help system
temperature calibration
zoom function
DIL Features
various correction options:
- sample holder expansion can be corrected with either a calibration
measurement
or a sample holder correction
- offset correction
characteristic temperatures:semi-automatic routines for
determination of onset, peak and end temperatures
glass transitions and softening points:
- evaluations conform to DIN (German standards)
- automatic softening point detection
expansion coefficients: graphic or tabular presentation
of technical and physical expansion coefficients (coefficients
of thermal expansion and expansivity)
analysis of sintering steps
automatic determination of the shrinkage during a sintering
step
Add-ons
c-DTA® analysis (option): characterization of
energetic effects simultaneous to the dilatormeter results
(calculated DTA)
thermokinetics: advanced characterization and optimization
of sintering reactions
density software: software for determination of volumetric
expansion and density changes even in the molten regions.
NETZSCH offers
precision thermal analysis instruments including advanced dilatometers (with
a new basic R&D/QC dilatometer),
classical DSC & TGA (with
a new economical DSC), high temperature DSC
to 1650°C for specific heat, very high temperature STA
(TGA-DSC/DTA) to 2400°C (featuring the new STA
409-PC Luxx®), thermal
/ evolved gas analysis with fully-integrated FTIR & MS, plus
high resolution TMA and DMA.
We also feature leading technology for thermal conductivity and diffusivity measurement
as well as refractories testing including HMOR, CIC, and RUL.
