Flexible

With Melting Point, benefit from easy and fast determination of melting point, boiling point or slip melting point of nearly any type of sample. Double-check challenging samples by comparing manual and automated measurements for an extra level of accuracy. Observe and replay the phase transition using colour display and video recording for comprehensive data analysis. Manage methods and results even easier by using optional PC software.

Flexible

Accurate

The Melting Point system delivers highly accurate temperature setting and measurements. Easily keep your instrument accurate by using the intuitive menu-guided calibration. Confidently verify the calibration against certified standard compounds.

Accurate

Compliant

Melting Point is fully compliant with Pharmacopoeia methods (European, USP, Japanese). Certify your calibrations with comprehensive IQ/OQ procedures and conveniently use verification compounds for GLP/GMP laboratories.

Features

  • On a colour display, comfortably and continuously observe the phase transition in a 6-fold magnification video recording of the metling or boiling process.

  • View results after measurement easily with a video movie of every determination. Make good use of your time thanks to variable speed from single picture slow motion to fast motion up to 100x to analyze your samples efficiently and as needed.

  • Determine three different samples simulatenously for extra time-savings. Conveniently watch the samples on the display panel through a 2.5 magnifying glass for precise determination of melting and boiling poins. Thanks to full visibility, you can easily and accurately detect the start and completion of melting. Simply press a button to safely store the determined values. Save even more time thanks to a smartly designed heating block that allows faster cooling times and a higher throughput per hour. 

    Sample Determination
  • Optimized design of the heating block allows faster cooling times and therefore higher sample throughput per hour.

    Heating Block
  • A brilliant large color display with high resolution allows convenient control of the instrument and helps you to determine melting points in an extremely efficient way.

  • A fully menu-guided calibration in conjunction with the BUCHI calibration standards enables high-quality calibrations.

  • Load samples into BUCHI melting point capillaries faster and more efficiently.

    Sample Loader M-569
  • Use the optional printer for GLP/GMP-compliant documentation of calibration results and melting and boiling point determination. Speed up the input of sample parameters with the optional keyboard. 

    Printer and Keyboard
  • Manage users, methods and results easily and safely with the optional MeltingPoint Monitor Software.

    MeltingPoint Monitor Software
  • If you work in a regulated environment, you can obtain optional IQ/OQ documentation for your Melting Point instrument. There is no need for you to waste time and effort in creating validation documents.
