AUTOMATIC ROLLING THIN FILM OVEN - PROGRAMMABLE
Model Number : EIE-107-RTP
The Automatic Rolling Thin Film Oven is a precision laboratory device designed to evaluate the properties of bitumen and asphalt materials. It conforms to key standards including ASTM D2872, ASTM D6521, AASHTO T240, EN 12697-22, and ISO 4624. This oven offers a temperature range of 50-180°C with a control accuracy of ±1°C. It features programmable speed settings (5-60 rpm) and accommodates sample sizes ranging from 2 to 200 grams. Key safety features include over-temperature protection, automatic shut-off, and integrated control systems for temperature, speed, and timing. With Digital Flow meter and air flow regulator
The Rolling Thin Film Oven complies with international standards including ASTM D2872, AASHTO T240, CNR N.54, EN 12607-1, and IS 15799-2008. It is designed to determine the resistance of bituminous binders to hardening from heat and air through the Rolling Thin Film Oven Test. This unit simulates the short-term aging that occurs during the mixing of binders with aggregates and the finishing of bituminous layers.
Salient Features:
- Double-walled, electrically heated oven with high-density glass wool insulation.
- Over-temperature and door open automatic safety switches.
- High resistance glass door with an uninterrupted view of the interior.
- Armored heating resistance and a digital electronic thermo-regulator operating in PID mode.
- Rotating shelf with minimal air resistance, capable of holding up to eight sample containers.
- Equipped with a digital flow meter, air flow regulator, and cooling fan.
- Includes pilot lamps, a 2-meter cord, and power plug.
