Standards
ASTM D 2354
ASTM D 1465
ISO 2115
DIN ISO 2115
DIN 53 366
ISO/DIS 4622
Applications
  • Minimum film forming temperature, white point/glass transition temperature of dispersion materials, synthetic resins, enamels ...
  • Blocking power and stacking capability of coated papers, foils, prints...
  • Test instrument with a ground hard-chrome plated metal plate as a measuring plate for depositing the specimens. By heating and cooling the measuring plate any variable temperature gradient within the range of -30°C to +250°C can be produced and kept constant for any given period.
  • The measuring plate is equipped with 20 temperature sensors. The temperature can be controlled by the integrated electronic temperature measuring instrument with a digital display and measuring-point selector over the entire range.
  • To determine the minimum film forming temperature "MFT" the specimens are applied to the measuring plate by a film coating appliance and protected from ambient air by a covering cap.
  • To determine the blocking power the specimens on the measuring plate are weighed by defined loads to simulate the stacking capability.

Description

50-113

MFFT 10 Temperature Gradient Oven Thermostair Mini

 

Conforming to standards: DIN ISO 2115 – DIN 53 366 – ASTM D 2354 – ASTM D 1465 – ISO 2115 – ISO/DIS 4622

 

chromium-plated measuring plate:

measuring length: 500 mm

measuring width: 180 mm

temperature display: -10…+80°C

temperature gradient: max. 20 K (depends on the external cryostat)

electronic temperature controller with digital temperature display and

temperature preselection as well as excess temperature protection

10 built-in temperature sensors

  • accuracy: 0,1°C
  • display of nominal value and actual value of the temperature of
  • the hot and cold side
  • scroll function to request the temperature measuring stations
  • manual selection of the single temperature measuring stations
  • integrated membrane drying unit with flowmeter
  • open able hood made of PMMA, max. working temperature 80°C

 

The necessary cooling unit for operating does not belong to the scope of delivery of the MFFT 10. It must be ordered separately.

The working temperature range and the maximum temperature gradient depend on the effective cooling power of the connected cryostat.

We recommend the standard Chiller -  60-005-004
