About Bitumen Tester
We are as the manufacturer of
Bitumen Tester believe in quality and high end performance. Bitumen Tester is used for determination of bitumen percentage in hot mixed paving mixtures and pavement samples. The mix is added with a solvent and dissolved bitumen is removed by centrifugal action. The Extractors are available in two versions, Hand operated and motorized electrically driven.
Advanced Heating and Control MechanismEquipped with an integrated heating plate and a digital control panel, the Bitumen Tester ensures precise temperature regulation from ambient up to 200C. The digital timer enables consistent test cycles, and the device maintains accuracy within 0.1C. The air-cooled system and manual lubrication contribute to a low-noise, safe operating environment.
User-Friendly Operation and ConnectivitySoft touch keys simplify the operation while the clear digital display offers real-time data visibility. With USB connectivity, test results can be easily transferred for documentation and analysis. Tool-free panel access facilitates straightforward maintenance, making it suitable for both seasoned professionals and lab technicians.
Certified Quality and Reliable PerformanceMeeting stringent ISO 9001 and CE safety standards, this tester is factory calibrated and supplied with certification. The corrosion-resistant mild steel frame ensures long-term durability, while its compact size and light weight enable easy positioning and portability within the laboratory setting.
FAQs of Bitumen Tester:
Q: How does the integrated heating system enhance bitumen testing?
A: The integrated heating plate offers uniform temperature control up to 200C, crucial for accurate softening point and viscosity tests. Precise regulation and air cooling ensure that samples are tested under ideal, stabilized conditions, promoting reproducible results.
Q: What standards are supported by this bitumen tester?
A: The BT-2024 supports ASTM, IS, and EN methods, aligning with international testing standards. This versatility ensures the equipment can be used for regulatory compliance and industry-standard testing protocols globally.
Q: When should I calibrate the device, and is factory calibration sufficient?
A: The device comes factory calibrated with a calibration certificate, ensuring initial accuracy. Recalibration should follow your internal quality program or when performance verification indicates a drift, especially after extensive use.
Q: Where is the optimal location for storing the Bitumen Tester?
A: Store the tester in a dry location with a temperature range between 0C and 50C. Proper storage conditions help maintain calibration integrity and prevent corrosion, extending the lifespan of the instrument.
Q: What is the process for conducting a test with this equipment?
A: Place the sample in the supplied container, insert the penetration needle and required weights, then set the digital timer and desired temperature on the control panel. The machine operates semi-automatically, with clear instructions on the display guiding each step.
Q: How does the USB data output benefit users?
A: USB data output enables direct transfer of test results to a computer or storage device. This facilitates efficient record-keeping, data analysis, and easy sharing of results for quality documentation or reporting purposes.
