The Discovery Laser Flash DLF 1200 is a compact benchtop instrument for the measurement of thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, and specific heat capacity of materials from room temperature to 1200˚C. It features a proprietary laser source with 17 Joules of energy for testing of the widest range of samples under the most demanding conditions. Productivity is no problem with the four-sample tray design. It is the only benchtop light flash instrument available with a laser pulse source for enhanced precision, accuracy and capabilities beyond competitive Xenon light source designs.
Powerful laser, with 65% higher energy compared to competitive Xenon systems, for the most accurate testing of the widest range of samples, regardless of thickness and thermal conductivity to 1200˚C
Laser is inherently coherent and precisely irradiates only the sample surface, eliminating the need to correct for lateral heat transfer from over-flash onto sample holder
Autosampler with patented four-position alumina sample tray for maximum productivity
Wide variety of sample trays accommodates multiple sample sizes (up to 25.4 mm), shapes, and special fixtures (liquids, powders, laminates, films, etc.) for maximum sample testing flexibility
Advanced resistance heated furnace provides best-in-class temperature stability and uniformity across sample from RT to 1200˚C and enables measurements in air, inert gas, or vacuum
High sensitivity IR detector for optimum signal-to-noise ratio, delivering highest accuracy over the entire temperature range
Real-time pulse mapping for superior thermal diffusivity of thin and highly conductive materials
