Bomb Calorimeter – QualiBC-Series

A bomb calorimeter, also known as an oxygen bomb calorimeter, is a vital instrument used to determine the calorific value or heat of combustion of various materials. By precisely measuring the energy released during combustion in a high-pressure, oxygen-rich environment, bomb calorimeters play a crucial role in energy analysis, quality control, and research and development.

Applications of bomb calorimeters span a wide range of industries, including:

• Fuel and Energy – Testing coal, oil, gasoline, diesel, biofuels, and other combustibles for heat content and efficiency.
• Food Industry – Analyzing the caloric content of food samples for nutritional and regulatory purposes.
• Chemical and Petrochemical – Evaluating the energy properties of chemicals and by-products.
• Waste Management – Assessing the energy potential of waste-derived fuels.
• Educational and Research Institutions – Conducting thermodynamic experiments and material studies.

Qualitest offers a wide range of advanced yet cost-effective bomb calorimeters designed to meet the diverse needs of laboratories, manufacturing plants, universities, and industrial testing facilities. Our oxygen bomb calorimeters are engineered for precision, reliability, and ease of use, making them ideal for both routine and high-end analytical tasks.

All Qualitest bomb calorimeter models comply with international testing standards such as:

• ASTM D5865 – Standard Test Method for Gross Calorific Value of Coal and Coke
• ISO 1928 – Solid mineral fuels – Determination of gross calorific value by the bomb calorimetric method
• DIN 51900 – Testing of solid and liquid fuels – Determination of gross and net calorific value

Whether you’re analyzing fossil fuels, biomass, food, or chemicals, a Qualitest bomb calorimeter provides the accuracy and performance you need to make informed decisions and maintain quality standards.
