The brief

Thermogravimetric (TGA) balance system with connection for mass spectrometer and associated consumables.

The mission-critical BGS thermogravimetric (TGA) balance is out-of-spares-warranty and therefore any future breakdown will result in a complete and permanent loss of function and will mean BGS will fail to deliver a range of EI and grant/PhD research.

BGS therefore wishes to purchase a replacement TGA balance to ensure it fulfils its ongoing commitments and enable it to market the facility more widely.
