Scanning Module

A calorimeter module being part of the Multiple Module Calorimeter (MMC)A multiple mode calorimeter device consisting of a base unit and exchangeable modules. One module is prepared for accelerating rate calorimetry (ARC), the ARC-Module. A second one is used for scanning tests (Scanning Module) and a third one is related to battery testing for coin cells (Coin Cell Module).Multiple Module Calorimeter (MMC) allowing for scanning test of a sample. This procedure can serve as a screening test in order to detect a Thermal hazard potentialThe likeliness or the risk of an individual chemical or a chemical mixture to undergo an exothermic self-decomposition reaction under uncontrolled circumstances (thermal runaway).thermal hazard potential within a reasonably short measurement time.
