The newly designed furnace unit reduces energy consumption by over 20 % when heating from room temperature to 300 ºC at a
20 ºC/minute heating rate (compared to previous Shimadzu instruments). When making measurements below room temperature,
the liquid nitrogen consumption savings exceed 30 % (compared to previous Shimadzu instruments). The instrument footprint has
also been minimized.

DSC-60A Plus Automatic Differential Scanning Calorimeter
Capable of Continuous Unattended Measurement

The built-in compact autosampler permits automated
measurement, analysis, and report printout for up to 24 loaded
samples. It improves the efficiency of screening during product
development and the efficiency of quality control activities. The
footprint is the same as the standard model.
