FP82HT/84HT Hot Stage (Thermo Optical Analysis)

The FP82HT Hot Stage is an easy-to-use and precise thermal measuring cell for visual sample inspection. The FP84HT Hot Stage simultaneously allows visual observation and DSC heat flow measurements. With a mircoscope and a video camera connected to the measuring cell, video imgages can be captured and overlaid with real time temperature, scale bar and text using a third party software (see Related Products).

Features and Benefits
FP82HT
  • Homogenous temperature field between two heating plates for objective and precise temperature measurement
  • Connection to microscopes and image video recording provides exciting and precise insights into microscopic sample changes
  • Frequently used to study crystal states, melting, polymorphism and liquid crystal behavior
  • Applications can be combined with polarized an non-polarized light microscopy, light transmission photometry and FTIR spectroscopy
  • Simultaneous thermal microscopy and DSC heat flow measurements with the FP84HT
  • 3rd party software and the FP99 software provide various procedures for the evaluation of optical data, light transmission and heat flow
  • Recommended in international standard ASTM D2117

(Please note: needs the FP90 central processor as control unit)
