The MMC 274 Nexus® consists of two parts: the base unit with electronics and the exchangeable calorimeter module. This guarantees maximum flexibility.

Exchangeable calorimeter modules are available for different applications. The Accelerating Rate Calorimeter (ARC®) module can be used for standard process safety work. External heater and VariPhi™ modules can be employed for more sophisticated measurements.

Key Features and Advantages of MMC 274 Nexus®

• Multiple testing modes in one instrument for wide application coverage
  - Scanning mode (constant power, constant heating rate)
  - Isothermal mode
  - Adiabatic mode with Heat-Wait-Search for process safety tests

• Exchangeable calorimeter modules in one table-top instrument
  - ARC module for safety testing
  - External sample heater module for scanning tests as with DSC
  - VariPhi™ module for fire exposure tests, specific heat, endothermal effects

• Wide temperature range up to 500°C

• Wide pressure range up to 100 bar (10 MPa)

• Various sample containers of different materials and volumes

• Proteus® software for the evaluation of onset, peak, area, etc., which may be combined with other thermoanalytical data in one plot
