trolled ramp and do not reach the temperature immediately upon analyzing the sample.
5.3.
Constant Weight - The method will complete the analysis only when the weight reaches a stable end-
point, which is determined in the category that was chosen in the method settings.
5.3.1.
Set the Mag Power and IR power . The power should be set at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%
5.3.2.
Set the maximum run time the method will run. This is to prevent samples running too long if con-
stant weight parameters cannot be met. Most samples will not reach this maximum run time. The
default is 10 minutes.
5.3.3.
Set the Maximum temperature for the sample. Some category parameters contain a controlled
ramp and do not reach the temperature immediately upon analyzing the sample.
6.
Select the “Details” tab.
6.1.
Set the minimum and maximum sample weights (20 g maximum) to be added to the glass fiber pads
during sample analysis. During sample testing, the weight graph will change from blue to green when
the weight is within the set range. Set the minimum and maximum results which typically correspond
to the internal specification of the sample being analyzed.
6.2.
If necessary, add a sample bias to adjust final results up or down to match reference results.
CAUTION
Not following proper sample preparation and spread techniques can lead to a reduction in precision,
inaccurate results, or even damage the system.
