The PerkinElmer TGA 8000 provides precise temperature and gas control for high‑throughput thermal analysis.
About this manual
The TGA 8000™ thermal gravimetric analyzer delivers full control over sample temperature (‑20 °C to 1200 °C) and gas atmosphere, with a fast heating rate up to 500 °C/min. Its modular design includes a high‑precision gas flow controller, optional three‑gas mixing module, and a 48‑bit automatic sampler for unattended testing.
Integrated with PerkinElmer’s Pyris software suite, the instrument supports seamless coupling with FTIR, MS, and GC/MS systems, enabling qualitative and quantitative analysis of evolved gases. The system is built for ease of use, remote iOS control, and reliable operation in demanding research environments.
