This automatic adhesion tester measures the adhesion of coatings applied on metal, wood, concrete and similar substrates.
- Internal memory stores maximum pull-off pressure, rate of pull, test duration, dolly size, pass/fail, nature of fracture and user notes for 100000 pulls in up to 1000 batches
- Pull rate, pull limit and hold time are user-adjustable
- Impact and scratch resistant colour touch screen with keypad for operation with or without gloves
- Built-in rechargeable NiMH battery
The meter is equipped with an electronically controlled hydraulic pump which applies smooth and continuous pull-off pressure. This greatly reduces user effort and the risk of influencing the pulling process. Self-aligning aluminum dollies enable accurate measurements on smooth or uneven surfaces.
Every PosiTest adhesion tester pressure system is calibrated and certified to ±1% accuracy using a NIST traceable load cel. Evaluating measured values on PC is possible by using an adapter and PC-software.
Adhesion strenght: 1 psi (0,01 MPa); ±1% of F.S.
Max. pull force: 500 - 10000 psi (3,5 - 70 MPa), depending on the dolly size
Standards: ASTM D4541/D7234, ISO 4624/16276-1, AS/NZS 1580.408.5
