Device-for-Measuring-Long-Thermal-Expansion-Coefficient

Manufacturer: Linseis GmbH/ Germany

Model: L76 

The main application field for the LINSEIS DIL L76 Dilatometer series is the CTE measurement of ceramics, brick, tile, porcelain and building materials. Furthermore it is widely used for quality control purposes in ceramics and in metal industries. 

Thanks to the fact we started to develop and build Dilatometers in the year 1955, this instrument is very reliable and covers a wide temperature range from RT up to 1000°C, 1400°C and 1600°C with user exchangeable furnaces. 

It consists of measurement systems made out of quartz glass (up to 1100°C) and Al2O3 (up to 1600°C). The sensor is a highest precision LVDT (linear variable differential transformer), which has an indefinite resolution. Together with the 32 Bit software package LINSEIS WIN-TA / WIN-DIL, the Dilatometer provides an excellent solution for standard quality control type CTE measurements. 

The following physical properties can be measured: 

CTE Linear Thermal Expansion 

Alpha Physical

Sintering Temperature

Phase Transformations

Softening Points

Decomposition Temperatures

Glass Transition Temperatures
