DVS Adventure
DVS Adventure is a water
vapor sorption analyzer that measures sorption and desorption isotherms over a
broad range of humidities and temperatures. It offers unprecedented temperature
stability and humidity performance. It provides valuable information about the
interactions of a sample with water vapor that is critical for the development
of new materials and processes. For example, in many industries water sorption
properties of raw materials are considered as key parameters in determining
their storage, stability, processing and application performance.
Outstanding Performance
Humidity Stability over 24 hours
The DVS
Adventure contains the cumulative knowledge of 25 years worth of Surface
Measurement Systems’ excellence in vapor generation. It truly has the highest
level of humidity precision in any instrument we’ve ever produced. Generated
humidities are typically within ±0.1%RH of target humidity.
True0™ RH
Surface
Measurement System’s DVS gravimetric sorption analyzers are the only
instruments of their type offering True0™ RH. Our DVS instruments achieve
partial pressures of water as low as 0.0% RH. This is important for hydrates
and other compounds that only completely dry below 1% RH and investigation of
sorption/desorption at low RH levels.
State-of-the-Art Temperature Performance
The DVS
Adventure features an extremely stable single temperature enclosure around the
entire instrument allowing vapor generation and delivery to occur at the sample
temperature over the entire operational rang of 5-85 °C. Typical stability at
25 °C is ±0.02. This prevents issues with multiple temperature zone
condensation, and allows for more accurate and more stable humidity delivery.
Balance Baseline Stability over 24 hours
The DVS
Adventure is capable of measuring mass changes at a resolution of 0.1ug with
peak to peak noise of less than or equal to 0.2 ug. The Surface Measurement
Systems Ultrabalance™ is unrivaled in its precision and accuracy.
