NEXTA DSC series, Hitachi’s latest series of differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), delivers superior sensitivity with exceptional baseline stability. Moreover, it allows an even wider temperature range for Real View®. NEXTA DSCs also have ability to use temperature modulated DSC method to determine specific heat capacity. Together with the enhanced safety features designed in make this instrument even more user-friendly.
The series of DSCs provide cutting-edge measurement technology for quality control in various fields as well as research and development of polymers, inorganic materials, pharmaceuticals, and others.
World-class baseline repeatability
Both NEXTA DSC600 and DSC200 use an advanced heat-flow design in the sensor. This allows the heat from the heat sink transferred evenly to the sample and the reference, resulting in the high baseline stability. Together with a furnace built with a low-heat-capacity three-layered insulation design, this allows the NEXTA DSC achieves world-class baseline repeatability and stability.
World-class sensitivity
The NEXTA DSC600 has a proprietary thermopile-type DSC sensor. By using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC signal) temperature sensor thermocouples connected in series and multiplexed, the NEXTA DSCs achieve a high sensitivity of 0.1 µW or lower, enabling measurement of even smaller samples.
Wider temperature range for Real View® DSC
The Real View Sample Observation Unit has a built-in two-megapixel high-resolution camera that supports visual observation of the sample.
