Magnetic Susceptibility Balance (MSB) AUTO

Magnetic Susceptibility Balance (MSB) AUTO

Retaining all the advantages of our MK I instrument; the enhanced features of the Magnetic Susceptibility Balance AUTO are described:

TRUE PORTABILITY

This balance weighs just under 2.2 kg. and comes complete with rechargeable battery which allows up to 8 hours of operation away from a mains power supply. Supplied in its own robust carrying case the instrument can be fully operational in minutes after arrival at the analysis site. A travel clamp, external to the instrument and easy to apply, and an adjustable level control are the only setting-up procedures required.

EFFICIENCY AND SIMPLICITY THROUGH MICROPROCESSOR CONTROL

The 8751 microprocessor has the balance calibration constant entered during manufacture. The digital display of the measurement is directly converted to Volume susceptibility in c.g.s. units without need for calculation or manipulation. By entering the sample weight and length (internal sensors detect the diameter of sample tube) Mass susceptibility can be read directly from the display. The instrument automatically zeroes when the sample tube is not in position, so it is always ready for use. An auto tare facility can be implemented by simply pressing the Tare key with a blank tube in the sample position.

Description

The Magnetic Susceptibility Balance – AUTO is a microprocessor controlled, state of the art, balance for detecting the magnetic properties of gases, liquids and solids. The improved sensitivity, versatility and overall performance make it ideally suited for new analytical applications in the research laboratory and industrial quality control.

Based on their magnetic properties, all substances can be classified into one of three groups, those attracted by a strong magnetic field, known as paramagnetic, those repelled, designated, and, finally, the most recognised class, ferromagnetic, unique in their ability to retain their own magnetic field. Ferromagnets are able to retain a permanent magnetic field since their free eletrons are in close proximity and remain aligned even after the external magnetic field is removed.

Unlike the ferromagnets, the magnetic properties of the diamagnetic or paramagnetic materials could only be observed and measured when these samples are held within a magnetic field; applied externally.
