Features:

• variable traction speed up to 140 mm/min.
• force detection by high resolution (10 mN) 300 N-sensors
• automatic rupture detection above 20 mN is possible
• constancy of speed and temperature at minor bath motion
   is better than demanded by the standards
• without cooling coils, therefore easy to clean


Bath: for 3 simultaneous tests, made of stainless steel, double-walled and full insulated, closed cycle cooling system, circulation pump to be switched off, temperature probe, bath illumination and acrylic bath cover.

Control Unit: with microprocessor, membrane keypad, analog output for 3 force-channel line-recorder, RS 232-interfaces for printer & PC

4 Programs:
- Semi-Automatic Elongation for rupture forces below 20 mN
- Automatic Elongation for rupture forces of 20 mN to 300 N
- Semi-Automatic Elastic Recovery for polymer modified
  bitumen (in accordance with ASTM D 6084, EN 13398 and other methods)
- Automatic Elastic Recovery for polymer modified bitumen
  (similar to ASTM D 6084 and other methods)

Serial Impact Printer: for single sheet & continuous paper (incl. data transmission cable) for printouts of 3 test points with following parameters: program, traction speed, distance, tensile forces, temperatures, percentage of elastic recovery, energy (the result of integral) (not suitable for DDACon-Software printouts)
