Product Details

 

Accurate

  • The humidity guard and hotplate are both made of sintered porous bronze - the most accurate simulation of human skin

 

  • Hotplate height is adjusted by a motor drive ensuring that the plate remains level at all times

 

  • The grooved guard plate allows for simple and precise sample loading

Conditioned Chamber

The sophisticated purpose-designed climate chamber ensures the most rigid control and monitoring of:

  • Air Temperature

  • Air Speed

  • Relative Humidity

  • Heater Power Consumption

 
 

 

Three Section Hotplate

  • Test Plate

  • Guard Section

  • Bottom Plate

 

Each section electronically and independently maintains a constant temperature in the range of human skin (33 to 36°C)


 

Air speed sensor located directly above the sample

 

Other climate control sensors include:

  • Relative Humidity

  • Ambient Air Temperature

 
 

Versatile 

Test samples with an area of ​​250 mm x 250 mm and a thickness of 70 mm can be tested

 

The instrument simulates both wet and dry skin conditions giving a complete sample profile

Precision

Test parameters are displayed on the instrument's full color display at set increments, controllable by the operator. 

 

  • Thermal Resistance (Ret)

  • Vapor  Resistance (Rct)

  • Hotplate  Temperature

  • Thermal Guard Temperature

  • Time Remaining in Test

 

 

Intuitive software can control the display and storage of real-time results for all test methods

 

 

 
 

 

Intuitive

Comes with a laptop loaded with specialized Control & Analysis Software

  • Easy to control and understand reports depict all critical settings
  • Red/Green indicators give confirmation of test conditions at a glance
