  • Surface detection at constant force
  • Real-time clock for timestamping measurements

Accessories:

  • Carrying case
  • AC/DC adapter for 24VDC charging
  • USB cable
  • Measurement base for zero-point calibration
  • RUBEN Explorer PC software (optional)
  • RUBEN laboratory measurement base (optional)
Theory/Method

P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester Measurement Device:

P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester provides reliable and accurate measurement results for material hardness in demanding factory conditions, akin to what is traditionally achieved only in laboratory settings. P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester is a compact unit that can be easily moved from one measurement location to another. The device incorporates patented technology by Tieto-Oskari Inc. The Ruben measurement device fully meets the requirements of the P&J standard.

Measurement and Recording of Surface Temperature and Measurement Angle Error for Hardness Information

The device stores the results in its memory, where they can be reviewed on the device's display or transferred to a PC. Measurement results can be printed and reported from a computer using the P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester Explorer program, and additionally, they can be easily imported into software such as MS EXCEL®. Additional information about the measured object can be added to measurement results, sorted, averaged, and used to create measurement reports. P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester also measures and records surface temperature data as well as the device's measurement angle error as supplementary information to the primary hardness data.

User-Friendly

Measurement is initiated by pressing the "measure" button. A standard measurement, as per the standard, takes 60 seconds during which the measuring tip analyzes the hardness of the measured surface. The result is readable on the device's display and is stored in the device's memory. The device can also display the average P&J value of test series.

Diagnostic Features

P&J Plastometer – Pusey & Jones Hardness Tester measurement device includes several diagnostic features to ensure accurate measurement results. Device calibration is simple and swift.
