W413 2.0 Water Vapour Transmission Rate Tester

W413 2.0 Water Vapour Transmission Rate Tester

Manufactured by GBPI Testing Instruments

The W413 2.0 water vapour permeability analyser enables three of the same or different samples to be tested at the same time and output three test reports, improving test efficiency.

This reliable and easy-to-maintain instrument is fitted with an imported, high-precision infrared sensor to deliver long-term performance. It can be used to test the water transmission rate (WTR) of a wide range of materials from ceramics and composite film to medical patches.

Benefits

  • Equipped with three chambers with independent data to meet the demands of high-throughput testing with high testing efficiency.
  • New pneumatic control system provides an automatic fixture, one-button lock of the sample, which is labour-efficient and convenient, as well as giving superior sealing performance.
  • Three different test modes of high, medium, and low barriers, can test films with different barrier properties.
  • Fully automatic operation — one-key test, judge, and shutdown.
  • Professional software with simple interface, which is easy to use and convenient for setting up the test process.
  • Mainframe configure with colour touch screen can observe temperature, humidity, and transmission without external computer.
  • Real-time display of five sets of curves: permeability volume, flow rate, voltage, temperature, and humidity.
  • The curves with conceal function, support query function for background data.
  • Measurement precise up to 0.001 g/m2·24h can test high barrier materials, such as aluminium foil.
  • International advanced electromagnetic program step temperature control technology provides auto heating and cooling, without the need for external accessories. Precision: 0.1℃.
  • Dual gas flow method (dry gas and humid gas) humidity control, high precision (1%Rh) and constant humidity.
  • Audit and trace functions (test tracking, log tracking) ensure the security and integrity of test data.
  • System admin is able to manage permissions levels of each user.
  • Imported infrared sensor, with high precise and good performance offers longevity.
  • Sensor over-range automatic protection prevents damage to important sensors.
  • Functional modular design, easy to maintain.
  • Can be connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) platform to achieve digital network management, such as managing experimental data.
  • Adopting state reference materials to calibrate and verify the instrument, ensure the accuracy, universality and authority of the test data.
