The Parr 2811 Pellet Press is a robust, manually operated press designed for forming powdered samples into uniform pellets or tablets for oxygen bomb calorimetry. This simple and cost-effective device ensures that materials which do not burn efficiently as loose powders—such as benzoic acid—can be safely and completely combusted during calorimetric testing.
By compressing powders into solid, uniform pellets, the Parr 2811 enhances sample safety, reproducibility, and handling convenience, making it an indispensable accessory for laboratories conducting combustion or calorific value testing.
Key Features
- Compact and Economical Design: Provides a reliable solution for sample pellet preparation without the need for complex hydraulic systems.
- Safe Combustion: Pelletized samples restrict burning rate, minimize blowout risk, and ensure controlled combustion in oxygen bomb calorimeters.
- Interchangeable Punch & Die Sets: Compatible with six die sizes ranging from 3.0 mm to ½ inch, allowing flexibility for various sample requirements.
- High-Precision Construction: Produces uniform cylindrical pellets with smooth, flat surfaces for consistent calorimetric results.
- Ease of Operation: Manual pressing mechanism allows quick, reproducible pellet formation with minimal maintenance.
- Durable Build: Designed with rugged materials for long-term use in research and industrial laboratories.
Applications
- Oxygen bomb calorimetry
- Fuel and energy content determination
- Combustion research laboratories
- Pharmaceutical and material science sample preparation
- Analytical and quality control laboratories
