Thermomechanical Analyzer - Vertical Dilatometer
The heart of the TMA 402 Hyperion® is a highly precise inductive displacement transducer (LVDT).
This technology has stood the test of time; it is also used for dilatometers and allows measurement of even the smallest of length changes, into the nanometer range (digital resolution of 0.125 nm).
Simultaneous measurement of force and displacement signal
The force operating on the sample is generated electromagnetically in the TMA 402 Hyperion®. This guarantees a quick response time for experiments with a changing load, e.g. tests on creep behavior. A highly sensitive force sensor (digital resolution < 0.01 mN) continuously measures the force exerted via the push rod and readjusts it automatically. This sets the TMA 402 Hyperion® apart from other instruments, which use only preset values.
Modular Concept with interchangeable furnaces (compatible with other NETZSCH instruments) for easy and cost-effective expansion and retrofitting
Gas flows with up to 4 MFCs, controllable via software with programmable atmosphere change for the analysis of e.g. oxidation behavior without manual valve operation
Digitally programmable force or displacement control up to 4 N (only for F1 , 3 N for F3 ) with linear or stepwise force alteration and continuous force modulation for determining visco-elastic properties like relaxation, creep and stress/strain
Various accessories for an expanded application range, e.g., for measuring powders, liquids, pastes or metals
