Krüss offers three models in its series of Melting Point Meters, for analysing the melting point of powdery substances. The M5000 is automatic, easy to use, and lightweight, with on-screen instruction prompts and temperature control accessed via a LCD display. Fast measurement across all ranges of temperature is achieved by the inclusion of an integrated cooling fan, and an alarm can be programmed to alert the user when melting point is reached (this device will handle up to 400C). The M5000 has IP20 protection rating.
