Ageing Chamber

Ageing Chamber
Standards: BS ISO 2930 ASTM D 3194
For use with the Rapid Plastimeter  to calculate PRI, Plasticity Retention Index, widely used to grade natural rubber
Temperature controlled to 140ºC ± 0,2oC.
Temperature Resolution: 0,1oC.
Temperature stabilization time: 190 min.
When a drawer is pushed in, a timing sequence starts only for that chamber. As the 30-minute ageing process ends, by changing
colour, the light next to the drawer reminds the operator when to remove the sample. If the ageing period is exceeded, the light
changes to red indicating that the samples should be discarded.
