DISCOVERY DSC 2500

Discovery DSC 2500: From the world’s leader in Thermal Analysis, the new Discovery DSC 2500 represents the most advanced, fully featured, and highest performing DSC available. At the core of the DSC 2500 is the new Fusion Cell with patented Tzero technology which provides unrivaled performance in baseline flatness, sensitivity, resolution, reproducibility, and reliability. The exclusive T4P heat flow technology makes the DSC 2500 the only DSC capable of conducting and storing heat capacity in a single run. This best-in-class performance is realized without the need for pre- and post-test data manipulation. The DSC 2500 features a maximum operation temperature of 725 °C. Lower temperature limit can be extended to -180 °C with liquid Nitrogen cooling, or to -120 °C with the refrigerated cooling system. Included standard are the new innovative “app-style” touch screen with One-Touch-Away functionality, a reliable linear autosampler with programmable tray positions for the most flexible and worry-free 24/7 operation, Modulated DSC® (MDSC®) for the most efficient separation of complex thermal events, and new TRIOS software, the most versatile control and analysis software package available. TRIOS features a unique interface for programming experiments, managing and analyzing data files, intuitive spreadsheet views for autosampler control and sequencing, and automated calibration and verification programming. The Discovery DSCs are the only instruments in the industry to include a five year warranty on DSC cells. Note: TRIOS is compatible with Windows 7 and greater operating systems and is included with the instrument. Installation of the DSC requires a DSL Router with four port switch (P/N: 251471.002). In addition, the Universal AC Adapter Kit is required for orders outside of the US (p/n 203599.901).

THERMAL INSTALL & BASIC OP TRAINING FEE

Thermal and Rubotherm Installation & Training: Installation will be provided according to ISO 9000 procedure by one of our highly trained Service Engineers (average experience level of our field Service Engineers is over 15 years). The ISO 9000 procedure ensures consistency and high quality throughout the installation process. IQ/OQ procedures are available for an additional fee. The installation (except DMA) will include calibration with a traceable standard and a certificate of calibration. Basic Operational Training is also provided on the equipment after it is installed in your laboratory.

LOYALTY SUPPORT PLAN DSC2500 / DSC-X3

Loyalty Support Plan (LSP) for DSC2500 or DSC-X3: The LSP is a comprehensive support plan, designed to provide improved instrument performance, increased uptime, and reduced cost of ownership. For the modest annual subscription fee, LSP subscribers receive an annual Performance Maintenance Visit (PMV), priority phone & email support, complete repair coverage (including service parts, labor, & travel), accessory coverage, a 10% discount on consumable purchases, and exclusive access to TA Instruments virtual Theory and Applications courses.

This comprehensive support plan is available only for new instruments at the time of purchase, or prior to the end of the warranty period. LSP coverage is initiated at the end of the warranty period, and with annual renewal of the subscription, continues for the life of the instrument.
