CALORIMETER OPERATION
The Calorimeter will normally be operated from

can always be started from any menu screen.
OPERATING MODE: Sets the operating mode by
toggling between Standardization (for instrument
calibration) and Determination (for test runs).
TEMPERATURE GRAPH: Press this key to display a
real-time plot of the bucket and/or jacket tempera-
ture on the Temperature vs. Time Plot screen.

installed in the Calorimeter and its EE value.
START PREWEIGH: This key is used to start the
sample pre-weigh process. The user is presented
with or prompted for a sample ID. Next, the user
is asked to key in the associated sample mass or
alternatively the mass is retrieved from a con-
nected balance or network.
HEATER AND PUMP: The heater and pump must
only be turned on after the calorimeter water tank
is filled with water.
Note: The heater and pump must be turned ON to
bring the jacket to the correct starting temperature

through the fill and cool/rinse process. This func-
tion is used to pre-condition the calorimeter.
