## Description

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\.
