CALVET DC

Finland Norway Sweden

Like other calorimeters in the CALVET line, CALVET DC uses sensors based on thermocouples’ networks. The interchangeable sensors are designed to apply either the DSC or the drop calorimetry method. Drop calorimetry consists of letting a sample fall (at room temperature) into the sensor (at high temperature).

You can use DSC or drop calorimetry to measure heat capacity, heat content, or heat of dissolution and formation. CALVET DC applies mostly to such characterizations with metals, alloys, glass and ceramics.

Improved heat capacity and head measurements with Calvet 3D sensor based on thermocouples.

High temperature measurements by drop calorimetry for accurate heat capacity, and heat content measurements. 

High temperature measurements by heat flux DSC, for accurate heat capacity, heat of phase transitions, and glass transition measurements. 

Isothermal or temperature scanning conditions, up to 1500 °C or 1600 °C.

Convenient automated sample charger for multiple successive drops.
