General product description

Test rig and accessories to the determination of joint permeability, water tightness and wind load behavior at windows, doors and facades. Sealings, panels and other outside wall components can be checked for the above characteristics as well.

As standard, measuring units and care units with a volume flow of 100 m³/h, 450 m³/h or 800 m³/h are available.The volume flow is already converted in norm conditions. The testing pressure can be regulated up to 5000 Pa or 15000 Pa.

The hydraulic pressure and flow rate can be set by hand or electrically and recorded by a measuring turbine.

All measuring values are collected and visualized via an integrated computer. The clamping substructures are equipped in different dimensions with an electrically adjustable crossbar, variable side frames from stainless steel and one of the ift developed quick acting systems.
