Goal

Learn how to run a

test on a Parr 6200

Calorimeter with a standard 1108P Oxygen Bomb.

Step 1

Turn on the calorimeterThe calorimeter will boot

up to the main menu. Turn on the Oxygen

Supply.

Step 2

Go to the CalorimeterGo to the Calorimeter

Operation menu.Operation menu.

Turn on the Heater andTurn on the Heater and

Pump.Pump.

Note:

The Start will be grayed out when

the calorimeter is not ready to

run a test. The jacket temperature must be at

30° C. Once the jacket temperature is at

30° C it will be an additional 10

minutes before the Start function is available. This is true only if the pump and heater have been off for an extended period of time.

Step 3

Prepare a SampleTare (zero the weight of) a

sample cup.Weigh a sample to the

nearest .0001 g

Page 7: 6200 w 1108 p Operation Colby

Step 4 Put the sample on the head

Attach a cotton thread to the fuse wire.

The thread should touch the top of a solid pellet.

The thread should not be buried in a powder or granulated sample.

The thread should be positioned just above the surface of a liquid sample.

Step 5

Load the head into the bomb cylinderPlace the head into the

cylinder.Screw on the cap as far as it

will go. Do not over-tighten.

Step 6 Place the Oxygen Fill

Connection on to the 1108P.

Press the O2 Fill button on the Calorimeter Operation screen. Oxygen will flow into the 1108P. A timer will count down the fill time. Pressing the O2 Fill key while the timer

is counting down will abort the fill process.

Step 7

Position the bomb in the pail. Note that the bomb feet straddle the

embossed circle on the bottom of the pail.

Position the pail in the calorimeter. Note: There are three plastic supports in

the bottom of the calorimeter that line up with the depressions in the bottom of the pail.

Step 8 Attach the ignition wires to the terminals

on the 1108P bomb head. Fill the bucket with 2 liters of water at 25-

27C.Using the same amount of water each time

is criticalUse a 2-L volumetric flask.

Step 9

Observe the bomb to make sure that there are no oxygen leaks. Do NOT continue if there are

bubbles coming from the bomb!

Step 10

Close the lid making sure that neither the stirrer or the bucket thermistor are touching the 1108P bomb or bucket.

Step 11

Choose Standardization (calibration) or Determination (unknown samples) for Operating Mode.

Press Start. Input the Sample ID. Input the Bomb ID. Input the Sample weight. Input the Spike weight (if spiking is turned on).

Step 12

The test will automatically proceed through the following steps:Preperiod CycleFire the samplePost Period Cycle

Page 16: 6200 w 1108 p Operation Colby

Step 13 Results

Once the calorimeter is finished with the post period cycle the results will print out on the display on the touch screen.

Once the test results have been displayed the calorimeter will be ready for the next test once the next sample is ready.

Step 14

Open the lid and remove the bucket with the bomb.

Remove the 1108P bomb from the bucket and release the pressure by loosening the valve knob. Release the pressure slowly (over not less than one

minute).

Step 15

Rinse the bomb head and cylinder. Use distilled water and rinse

thoroughly. Dry the bomb head, cylinder and

screw cap. The bomb is now ready to

prepare for the next test.
