AUTO W812 Water Vapour Transmission Rate Tester
Manufactured by GBPI Testing Instruments
The AUTO W812 moisture vapour transmission rate tester uses the cup method to test the rate of water vapour transmission of films, sheets, papers, fabrics, non-woven fabrics, etc. The cup method is considered the simplest and most widely used method for determining water vapour transmission properties.
Engineered for high efficiency, this instrument has a newly designed test cavity and breathable cup design, with the ability to connect it to the Internet of Things (IOT) platform to realise network digital management.
