SURFACE ROUGHNESS:
The operator places the sample below the measuring head. By pushing the start button, the measuring head lowers onto the sample and gently clamps it. The test starts. As soon as the preset flow rate (e.g.1,47 ml/min) is stable, the measuring value is displayed. The test time is adjustable from 1-40 seconds. After test performance, the sample is released. The measuring head returns to its initial position and the device is ready for further measurements.

 

AIR PERMEABILITY :
The operator places the sample below the measuring head. By pushing the start button, the measuring head lowers onto the sample and gently clamps it. Air flows through the sample at a selected pressure (e.g.1,47 KPa). As soon as the preset flow rate is stable, the measuring value is displayed. The test time is adjustable from 1-40 seconds. Gurley values are calculated according to the standard and are displayed in Gurley seconds by default.

 

USER INTERFACE :
• Machine controlled by means of a touch screen and an auxiliary button.
• Through the visualization and control screen, the total control and configuration of the machine can be managed.
• Easy and intuitive operation of the control menu, configurable in different languages.
• Two result tables with a maximum of 10 result types and 20 test results per table.
• Possibility of display a diagram showing different test results.
• Statistical control. Mean value, standard deviation and maximum and minimum values.
• Value in µm/Pa*sec shown in statistics.
• Periodical program updating (without additional costs).
• Maintenance Menu, Set-Up and Calibration.
