The Wincom Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter is a precision laboratory instrument used to determine the calorific value (heat of combustion) of solid and liquid combustible materials. It operates by burning a sample in a high-pressure oxygen environment inside a sealed stainless steel vessel (the bomb) and measuring the resulting temperature rise in the surrounding water. This instrument is widely used in coal industries, power plants, oil refineries, cement manufacturing, food processing labs, and university research facilities.

Key Features

• Robust Oxygen Bomb Design: The combustion bomb is crafted from premium, corrosion-resistant stainless steel to safely withstand extreme high-pressure ignition and thermal shock.

• High-Precision Temperature Sensing: Equipped with an ultra-sensitive digital temperature probe that captures minute changes down to 0.001 Kelvin, ensuring highly accurate calculation results.

• Stable Water Jacket System: Designed with a double-layered water jacket structure that insulates the inner testing environment from external ambient temperature shifts, maintaining steady test baselines.

• Automatic Stirring Mechanism: Features a built-in electric paddle stirrer that creates rapid, uniform heat distribution inside the water cylinder without adding extra frictional heat.

• User-Friendly Software Integration: Connects smoothly to external PC workstations for automated temperature data logging, combustion curve plotting, and instant calorific value reporting.

Primary Applications

• Coal and Mining Industry: Determining the gross calorific value (GCV) of coal, coke, and biomass briquettes to evaluate fuel grade and trading values.

• Petroleum and Fuel Labs: Testing the heat output of heavy oils, diesel, gasoline, and alternative bio-fuels.

• Environmental and Waste Management: Measuring the energy content of municipal solid waste, hazardous waste material, and refuse-derived fuels (RDF) for recycling plants.

• Food and Animal Feed Science: Assessing the total caloric and metabolic energy contents in food products, grains, and livestock feed formulations.
