FROM SPECIMEN TO RESULT

Test sequence

Sequence outlined in the brochure for EN ISO 1716:2018.

  1. Weigh & prepare

    Record sample mass; prepare the crucible and ignition assembly.

  2. Charge & load

    Fill the closed bomb with oxygen externally, then place it in the water bucket.

  3. Ignite & record

    Ignite electrically and record the stirred bucket water temperature rise.

  4. Calculate PCS

    Apply calibration and method corrections; verify complete combustion.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Technical data

PW-OBC-01 Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter
ModelPW-OBC-01
Method referenceEN ISO 1716:2018 — gross heat of combustion
Measurement principleCombustion in oxygen at constant volume
Thermal arrangementIsoperibol: constant jacket temperature; bucket temperature rises
Reported quantityGross heat of combustion, PCS, in MJ/kg
Temperature measurementSeparate precision measurement of bucket and jacket temperatures
Combustion vesselSealed oxygen bomb with crucible and electrical ignition
Operator interface7-inch touchscreen PLC/HMI; PC-based result analysis
Specimen handlingManual bomb loading; separate external oxygen filling station
Calibration basisCertified benzoic acid; configuration-specific energy equivalent

The bomb is immersed in the bucket during testing. Low-energy samples require method-specific preparation, combustion aids and corrections.
