Additional information:
Microprocessor based unit provides automatically timed operator programmable penetration measurements
- Motorized placement of penetration on sample surface.
- Conforms to all ASTM, IP, ISO 9001 and related specifications
Unit tests the consistency of lubricating greases, petroleum waxes, bitumens, pastes, creams and other solid to semi-solid products, including a variety of food products. Microprocessor control provides a full range of measurement and reporting options. Operation is simplified by four user programmable presets for the motorized lowering of the penetrator tip to the sample surface. The penetrometer defaults to the standard ASTM interval of 5 seconds, or the operator may program a different interval in the range between 0.1 and 9999.9 seconds. A curing or temperature stabilization period may also be programmed, and for added convenience, all selected parameters are retained in memory and automatically repeated in subsequent tests until changed by the operator.
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 operators option. If a test result falls outside of the programmed range, an audible signal and visual error message alert the user of a failed sample. Results can be communicated to a printer or computer via a built-in RS232 interface.
