NACCAF 16/38 (manual) - Coal Ash Fusibility Test Furnaces

• For determination of ash fusibility for coal ash (and optionally biomass or co-fired ash)
• Suitable for testing to ASTM 1857-04 and BS ISO 540:2008 
• Up to 12 samples may be tested simultaneously
• Tests can be run up to 1600°C
• Automated digital image capture and archiving using Windows compatible software
• User defined temperature ramp and image capture rate
• Sealed work-tube for use with fail-safe gas control mechanism for use with toxic and inflammable gas mixtures
• The sliding and rotating door mechanism provides unrestricted access for sample loading
• Supplied complete with image review software able to generate test reports of the transition temperatures
• Supplied complete with sample holder, mounting tiles and loading tool
• Specify the prefered gas mixture at the time of order
• Programmed ramping to the test starting temperature

• Control mechanisms for the following gas mixures
• Reducing gas 60% (v/v) CO + 40% (v/v) CO2, Oxidising gas Air, Purge gas N2
• Alternatively, Reducing gas 50% (v/v) H2 + 50% (v/v) CO2, Oxidising gasCO2, Purge gas CO2
• Optional configuration for biomass ash or co-fired (biomass and coal mixture ashes)
• CAF 16/38 Manual testing using obervation telescope
• CAF 16/38 Reducing gas 60% (v/v) CO + 40% (v/v) CO2, Oxidising gas Air, Purge gas N2
