Parr Models Overview

Parr 7400 Automatic Isoperibol Calorimeter

This calorimeter allows labs to achieve maximum productivity. Designed for laboratories that require high throughput, the 7400 is highly automated and requires only about one minute of operator time per test, freeing up the lab technician to run up to four 7400 calorimeters simultaneously. Its large, adjustable 10-inch touchscreen provides clear viewing and convenient access to instrument controls and test results. The 7400 delivers excellent precision and accuracy.

Parr 7200 Precision Isoperibol Calorimeter

With a removable bomb and bucket design, the 7200 can achieve the highest level of precision and accuracy of any oxygen bomb calorimeter and conforms to all standards. Its large, adjustable 10-inch touchscreen provides clear viewing and convenient access to instrument controls and test results. It is a good choice for high precision quality control work and for research and development.

Parr 6400 Automatic Isoperibol Calorimeter - DISCONTINUED, REPLACED BY MODEL 7400

The Parr Model 6400 Automatic Isoperibol Calorimeter was designed for laboratories requiring high throughput, precision, and reliable automation. With approximately one minute of operator time required per test, the 6400 enabled laboratory technicians to efficiently manage multiple calorimeters simultaneously while maintaining excellent accuracy and precision.

Parr 6200 Isoperibol Calorimeter - DISCONTINUED, REPLACED BY MODEL 7200

The Parr 6200 Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter, now discontinued, was one of Parr’s most popular calorimeters. Its removable bomb and bucket design combined ease of use with exceptional precision and accuracy. Designed to conform to applicable industry standards, the 6200 was well suited for high-precision quality control applications as well as research and development work.

Parr 6100 Compensated Jacket Calorimeter

The 6100 takes advantage of the real time, continuously corrected method originally developed by Parr Instrument Company. This method does not require a water jacket which reduces costs while achieving up to equal results with water jacketed models under good conditions. The 6100 is a favorite for testing coal waste, refuse, and alternative fuels.

Parr 6050 Compensated Jacket Calorimeter

This calorimeter is the first designed by Parr to be controlled by your own personal computer allowing access to the calorimeter’s functions and tests. This new moderately priced, compact calorimeter combines a static jacket system with the convenience of automated oxygen filling.

Parr 1341 Plain Jacket Calorimeter

A reliable calorimeter, the 1341 can be used for the same broad range of solid and liquid combustible samples. Its modest cost and simple design make the model suitable for modest throughput and minimal precision work such as sample screening and student instruction, especially physical chemistry.

Parr 6725 Semimicro Calorimeter

A compact, static jacket, calorimeter designed specifically for measuring the heat produced by the combustion of small samples. It is often used in Marine Biology and in other applications where limited sample material is available.

Parr 6755 Solution Calorimeter

For laboratories that wish to measure enthalpy changes produced by chemical reactions in solution. It is frequently used for instruction at universities.

Parr 6790 Detonation Calorimeter

This unique Calorimeter is designed to measure the heat of detonation to aid research in the area of high explosives performance. Sample sizes of up to 25 g can be accommodated in the specially designed spherical combustion chamber.
