Allows heating of solid samples while under pressure, when electrical appliances cannot be used. Boiling water is passed through flow through tube and circulates heating the die body to between 80..100 ºC. Water jacket can also be used to cool sample under pressure.

KBr Disc Technique: This widely practiced method consists of grinding and mixing a sample with dry KBr or KCl powder, which is then compressed within an evacuated die to produce a transparent disc, since KBr and KCl are transparent from the ultra-violet well into the infrared. The method may be used for investigation in the ultra-violet and the visible as well as the infrared region.
