  1 to max 30 atmosfere, but above 10 atmosfere we could

  Hmm, I have doubts will be a correct measurement because: it needs a
cuartz optical fibre from the probe to the temperature sensor. The system
can measure correct just the surface temperature of the mixture
acid-sample. When the fibre is imersed the mixture may be less or more
infrared opaque. Remember I need to digest tousens of sample types from
soil to human kidneys...
There is also a problem with temperature distribution which has a
variation of 100C in 5 seconds of treatment.
