Raise Lab's RMP-1 is a precision instrument for accurate measurements of melting and boiling points, capable of handling temperatures from ambient to 320°C.
Key Specifications
- Temperature Range: Ambient to 320°C
- Capillary Capacity: Three melting point capillary tubes and one boiling point capillary
- Built-in Stirrer: Ensures even temperature circulation throughout the medium
- Heating Element: Immersed W-shaped bulb for uniform heating
- Temperature Control: Adjustable transformer enabling stepless regulation of heating current
Applications
Melting Point Determination
Melting point is a fundamental physical property used to:
- Identify unknown compounds
- Assess purity of substances (sharp melting point indicates high purity)
- Quality control of raw materials and finished products
Boiling Point Determination
Boiling point testing is essential for:
- Characterizing volatile compounds
- Quality assessment of solvents
- Verification of chemical identity
Operating Principle
The apparatus uses an oil bath or suitable medium heated by an immersed heating element. The stirrer ensures uniform temperature distribution. Samples in capillary tubes are observed through a magnifying lens as temperature gradually increases.
Precision Features
- Stepless Temperature Control: Fine adjustments for accurate heating rates
- Clear Observation: Magnifying lens and proper illumination
- Even Heating: Stirrer prevents hot spots and ensures accurate readings
The RMP-1 is essential for any pharmaceutical, chemical, or research laboratory requiring accurate melting and boiling point data.
