TG 309 Libra® Classic
The TG 309 Libra® Classic is the device with the best price-performance ratio in the Libra® series. It is the ideal instrument for Quality Control. The Classic offers a temperature range from 10 °C up to 1025 °C. In addition, it can be equipped with a 20-position ASC (Automatic Sample Changer).
Get Results Faster Without a Baseline Run
To ensure accurate mass change values, a baseline run is typically conducted under test conditions that are identical in terms of heating rate, gas type, and gas flow.
The baseline takes factors such as heating rate, crucible type and geometry into account while also accounting for instrument and buoyancy effects, thus allowing these to be subtracted from the sample measurement.
The TG 309 Libra® typically eliminates the need for a separate baseline run when using the integrated BeFlat® baseline run for typical temperature measurements. This significantly speeds up tests.
20 Times Faster Thanks to High Heating Rates
The TG 309 Libra® has a low-volume furnace. It supports rapid heating rates of up to 300K/min over the entire temperature range and fast ballistic cooling from 1025°C down to room temperature. This allows for faster analysis results, even at high temperatures, with a turnaround time of just a few minutes.

What is Thermogravimetry?
Thermogravimetry has the ability for differentiation between individual components based on their distinct thermal behavior. By analyzing weight-loss profiles,
