SGA-100 Sorption AnalyzerVTI’s traditional analyzer for effectively handling the broadest range of sorption studies

The Model SGA-100 Symmetrical Gravimetric Analyzer, with years of field-proven materials testing experience, serves as the principle instrument for sorption studies in commercial, academic and government research laboratories worldwide.

Using continuous vapor flow sorption technology, the SGA-100 is designed to handle research, development, quality control and packaging applications such as…

• Moisture and organic vapor sorption studies in pharmaceutical drugs, excipients and powders…and food products such as spices, coffee, tea and grains

• Deliquescing points of single compounds and mixtures• Moisture uptake in finished products• Permeability studies for packaging materials

Following the introduction of VTI’s Model SGA-CX in 2004 as the new industry standard for sorption testing, the SGA-100 remains the instrument of choice for those sorption applications requiring broader features, extended specifications and enhanced performance capabilities.

• Temperatures from 0 to 80°C with optional sample drying to 250°C

• Relative Humidity from 2% to 98%RH• Real-time humidity and temperature measurements allow for

precise control to within ±1.0%RH and ±0.1°C using a Dew Point Analyzer and temperature control system. Actual data are used, rather than estimated or target values

• Precision microbalances available with resolutions down to 0.1 µg and capacities up to 100 grams

• These SGA-100’s unique design features create excellent temperature and RH stability: (1) chilled-mirror dew point analyzer for actual humidity measurement, (2) isothermal aluminum block construction and (3) three isolated thermal zones
