|
| Pulverizes almost anything from cotton and wool to rock samples in seconds. Microprocessor Based |
| Conforms to the following specifications: ASTM D5, D217, D937, Dl321, Dl403, D2884, D4950; IP 49, 50, 179, 310; ISo 2137; DIN 51804, 51580, 51579; FTM 791-311,791-312, 791-313; AOCS Cc 16-60; AACC 58-14 |
A new microprocessor based penetrometer loaded with advanced features to provide ease of operation and highly reproducible consistency measurements of solid to semisolid products.
Microprocessor control provides a full range of measurement and reporting options, and operation is simplified by four user programmable presets that facilitate lowering the penetrator tip to the sample surface. |

- Conforms to all ASTM, IP, ISO 9001 and related specifications for penetrometers
|
| Automatically Time Penetrations |
| The penetrometer defaults to the standard ASTM interval of 5.0 seconds, or the operator may conveniently program a different interval in the range between 0.1 and 9999.9 seconds (in 0.1 second increments). A curing or temperature stabilization period may also be programmed by the operator (to delay the release of the penetrator into the sample) and for added convenience all selected parameters are retained in memory and automatically repeated in subsequent tests until changed by the operator. Separate keypad controls for each parameter simplify operation. Penetration and delay intervals count down on a large, easy to read LCD on the head of the unit. |
| Convenient Measurement and Reporting Options |
| Penetration measurements in the full range of 0 - 620 in 1/10 mm scale are reported in either 1/10 mm or 1/100 mm increments at the operator's option. For quality control testing, a penetration range can be entered into memory prior to testing. If a test result falls outside of the programmed range, an audible signal and visual error message alert the operator of a failed sample. Test results are displayed in digital format on a large LCD readout on the head of the penetrometer and can be communicated to a printer or computer via a built-in RS232 interface. |
| Simplified Penetrator Tip Replacement |
| Correct placement of the penetrater tip on the sample surface is essential for accurate penetration test results. The Digital Penetrometer has four operator programmable presets that lower the penetrater to the sample surface height at the touch of a button, greatly simplifying the process to ensure reproducibility. A fine adjustment button permits slight adjustments as needed. Full manual operation is also available with the use of coarse and fine push button controls and built-in magnifier and illuminator arms. When testing electrically conductive samples, a built-in circuit senses the sample surface for automatic placement. After testing, the penetrometer head returns to a raised position at the touch of a button to facilitate cleaning of the penetrometer and changing of the sample. |
| More Convenience Features |
| The detachable machined base provides a large platform to accommodate a wide range of sample containers and constant temperature cylinders. It removes easily to permit the head assembly to be reversed (for use with a constant temperature bath) or mounted directly to a bath housing or other location. A built-in rechargeable battery pack permits field operation and provides back-up in the event of power interruption. Battery recharges automatically during operation of the penetrometer on standard AC electrical service. |
