MK4 Latex Stability Tester

Placeholder Picture

The MK4 machine is the next generation of Latex Testing.

The new design features new digital controls and readouts for improved accuracy and reliability of results.

The new inverter driven controls reduce any variability in motor speeds, maintaining a continuous speed of 14,000 rpm as displayed on the new digital readout. The controls also feature an easy to use digital timer.

The sealed motor and controls require no maintenance and servicing

The glass (synthetic) or perspex (natural) beaker is secured on a stable aluminium table which is fully height adjustable using the easy hand operated controls. The machine retains the highly robust black stove enameled cast iron base mounted on rubber pads and is fully protected for use in tropical climates

Operating Instructions

The beaker platform is raised and lowered by means of the large hand wheel. The small hand wheel opposite is the platform lock. The platform should be at maximum height and locked in position during a test.

There is also a Timer display which is activated by pressing the "Start" button, to stop simply press the "Stop" button when the required test timeframe has been achieved. Please note that the timer counts upwards from zero and has a maximum operating limit of 30 minutes.

To stop the motor press the "Red Stop" button on the control panel.

The test procedure should be carried out in accordance with the relevant BSI/ISO or ASTM test specification.

The new MK4 machine can be configured as a variable speed
version for special custom non standards testing. (This feature must be specified at the time of order).
