Parr Bomb Calorimeters
Bomb Calorimetry – a procedure which determines the heat of combustion or calorific value of materials which are burned as fuels – is a fundamental test of great significance to anyone concerned with:-
- Production and/or utilization of solid and liquid fuels
- Disposal of combustible wastes
- Study of foods and feeds
Parr offers a complete line of Bomb Calorimeters and accessories for these measurements; Bomb Calorimeters which carry a proven reputation for reliability and good service as earned by the Parr Instrument Company during one-hundred years of continuous manufacturing experience in this specialised field. These Bomb Calorimeters provide a wide selection of equipment for all types of calorimetric service, whether for routine fuel tests, for precise research measurements, for occasional calorific tests, or for student instruction.
Uses for Parr Bomb Calorimeter extend into many chemical, physical or physiological processes in which heat generation or burning is an important factor. Principal bomb calorimeters applications include calorific measurements for:
- Coal and coke, all varieties and types
- Fuel oil, both heavy and light varieties
- Gasoline, all motor fuels and aviation type jet fuels
- Combustible wastes and refuse disposal
- Foodstuffs and supplements for human nutrition
- Forage crops and supplements for animal nutrition
- Building materials
- Explosives and heat powders
- Rocket fuels and related propellants
- Thermodynamic studies of combustible materials
- Energy balance studies in ecology
Four New Instruments
Parr is pleased to introduce its new Series 6000 line of Oxygen Bomb Calorimeters. This new line includes five different Oxygen Bomb Calorimeters which continue Parr’s tradition of offering the widest choice of instruments to the world’s fuel testing and research laboratories.
| The Model 6300 Automatic Isoperibol Calorimeter offers the world’s most automated calorimeter featuring the fixed bomb and bucket design. This calorimeter builds on the ten years of experience gained with the earlier Model 1281 |
 |
|
| The Model 6200 Isoperibol Calorimeter represents the current development of the traditional removable bomb and bucket calorimeter. This calorimeter is the updated version of the earlier Models 1266, 1261, and 1241 which have been the world’s most popular. |
 |
|
| The Model 6100 Compensated Jacket Calorimeter utilizes Parr’s real time thermal correction capabilities to provide an instrument for rapid testing with good repeatability at a very attractive price. This calorimeter replaces earlier Models 1356 and 1351 Calorimeters. |
 |
|
| The new Model 6725 Semimicro Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter offers a high degree
of electronic automation and control for users who prefer or must work with small samples. This calorimeter replaces the earlier Model 1425 Calorimeter. |
