    For more detailed information on calibration please see the rele- vant standards. If the IKA C 3000 isoperibol is operated with sev- ® eral different decomposition vessels, you will need to determine the heat capacity of the system for each decomposition vessel.
  • Page 18: Preparing Measurements

    Preparing measurements The term “measurements“ below refers to both the measurements to calibrate the calorimeter system (calibration measurements) and the actual measurements for determining the calorific value. The difference lies mainly in the evaluation (see the section ˝Wor- king with the device“ and ˝Settings“), whilst preparation and per- formance make virtually no difference.
