Description

DigiMelt is a modern, low cost, digital melting point apparatus designed specifically for the student lab. Students learn the visual detection capillary method of melting point determination without the frustration of trying to control the oven temperature. DigiMelt rapidly heats the oven to the programmed start temperature, then ramps at the specified rate. The student carefully observes the samples and records the melting points with a touch of a button. 

 

Key features

- Fast, safe, reliable measurements
- Mercury free
- Built-in digital thermometer 
- Microprocessor controlled ramps 
- Ramp rates from 0.5 to 20 °C/min
- Easy to clean and maintain 
- Tube tapper packs samples 
- NRTL safety certified

 

Safer for Students


The DigiMelt uses an internal RTD thermometer, which means students and TAs are never exposed to toxic mercury vapors. Some student instruments will reach 500 °C and stay at that temperature indefinitely — a severe burn hazard. The DigiMelt’s maximum temperature is 260 °C, which allows testing of virtually all organic compounds a student might examine. Intelligently designed cowling protects students from touching the hot oven. Furthermore, the oven will automatically turn off after being idle for 30 minutes.
