INDuSTRY PRODuCTS Run time can be programmed from 1.0 seconds up to 1,000 hours. Many temperature programs can be entered including 9 steps of temperature profiles programmable and repeatable up to 200 cycles. A complete assortment of platforms and clamps allows the use of flasks, beakers, separatory funnels, test tubes and microplates. Jeio Tech, Inc. 781.376.0700 Woburn, MA www.jeiotech.com The new MAX® 5000XL features the same intuitive user interface and rugged design as its predecessor the MAX® 5000. Improvements to the design and high temperature performance of the balance system of the MAX® 5000XL now make it possible to accurately analyze materials with ash concentrations of as little as 0.5%. The calibrated, instrument specific, high temperature lift compensation algorithm replaces the static lift compensation factor of previous models, resulting in more precise readings during ash / L.O.I. analyses. The new temperature ramp control feature of the MAX® 5000XL allows the user to capture the weight loss of a sample during a precisely controlled temperature change. Information gained from this test is similar to a scan performed by a more expensive thermogravimetric analyzer. This new feature effectively transforms the MAX® 5000XL into a dual use instrument capable of quantitatively testing for moisture and ash and qualitatively testing for the presence of certain organic or inorganic ingredients, and the degradation temperature of the material under test. Arizona Instrument LLC 800.290.1414 Tempe, Az www.azic.com Jeio Tech, Inc. New Incubated and Refrigerated Floor Model Shakers from Jeio Tech, Inc. he new IS-971 Floor Model Shaker Series from Lab Companion features high capacity capabilities! Up to 4 × 6 liter flasks can be handled by the SI-971. The series consists of 3 models. The IS-971 has a temperature range of 5°C above room temperature to 60°C. The IS-971R and IS-971RF (lighting control capability) have temperature ranges from 4°C to 60°C. The temperature uniformity is ±1.0°C at 38°C (based on various conditions). The shaking motion includes a choice of orbital or reciprocating action with a speed range from 10 to 300 cycles per minute and a maximum orbit size of 70 mm diameter. T Computrac® MAX® 5000XL Moisture/Solids/ Ash Analyzer from Arizona Instrument rizona Instrument has announced the release of the next generation of bench top moisture and ash analyzers, the Computrac MAX® 5000XL. The MAX® 5000XL advances the state of the art in rapid moisture and ash analysis with a new temperature-controlled balance and high temperature lift compensation algorithm that provides users with more stable and accurate measurements. The new instrument also features a temperature ramp control feature that allows the MAX® 5000XL to be used for qualitative analyses that were previously only possible using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA).
