 As the temperature starts rising the LCD updates the temperature in

0.01 degree C resolution.
 The digital unit calculates the maximum rise of temperature
automatically and the LCD displays “ MAX.TEMP = “ on the upper
line and “RISE. TEMP = “ on the lower line.

Max.Temp: 1.34 ⁰C
Rise. Temp: 1.32⁰C

 The parameters set in the menu helps the micro processor based
digital unit to automatically do the mathematical calculations and
display the calculated CALORIFIC VALUE of the substance and give
the thermal print out report simultaneously to the user.

Cal.Val= 473.23
Max.Temp:2.05⁰C

Water Eq.= 2345

Max.Temp:4.65⁰C

 Thermal Print out Report format for Sample Test:

1. "SAMPLE TEST"
2. "MAX.TEMPERATURE= XX.XX ⁰C"
3. "WATEREQUIVALENT= XXXX"
4. "MASS OF TABLET=X.XXX GMS"
5. "CV= XXX.XX"
 EIE INSTRUMENTS PVT. LTD
 Thermal Print out Report format for WATER EQUIVALENT:

To adjust Fuse Wire & Cotton Error.

Keep EXIT key pressed & then switch on the power of the firing unit after the
name of the machine has been displayed, release the EXIT Key & now the unit
will ask for Error. Feed the new error & exit.

IMPORTANT: while the process is running, the unit will automatically detect the
fall of rising temperature which may take some time. If the user feels to exit the
test process at the peak temperature, the user can press the EXIT key. The unit
will calculate the results with the max. temperature on the display & will show
& print the result.
