ift MessTec GmbH

Joint permeability, driving rain, wind load test rig for determining air permeability, water tightness and wind load resistance on exterior building components

Tight torsion-resistant clamping wall with very fast and convenient fixing of the specimens. Versions for national and international standards (DIN, EN, ASTM etc.) All sizes and designs depending on the product and application (window, door, gate, facade, wall, etc.)

 

Product description

The LWW test rigs consist of a test wall for tight clamping of the test specimens. Test chambers can be constructed in any size from a small window to a large gate or facade. The standard chamber depth of 400 mm can be increased and designed with access at the customer's request. Depending on the national or international test standard, spray rows or spray grids with different spray nozzles are installed in the test chamber. A suitable measuring and supply unit is connected to the test wall. These are available in various sizes and designs. With the comprehensive ift MessTec testing software, the tests can be carried out very easily and conveniently. Documentation by means of a standard-compliant test protocol is also possible.

Depending on the application, we offer factory calibrations for development tests or factory production control or so-called DAkkS calibrations for official tests with accredited and/or notified testing bodies. We can offer the measurands pressure, air and water flow, displacement and temperature measurement in the accredited area with DAkkS calibration protocol.
