Exposure to large quantities of dust and small particulates can impair the performance of the instrument. The solution involves the addition of a special filtered blower to the base of the instrument. This creates a positive pressure inside the base unit preventing the dust-laden atmosphere from entering. All cover joints around the base are also sealed.
A material testing machine modified in this way has been in use for more than a year and has successfully eliminated any ingress of dust. The filter element needs to be replaced or cleaned every 6 months.
The LR50KPlus is ideal for testing applications up to 50 kN (11241 lbf) and is designed equally for routine quality control testing and for performing complex multi-stage tests. The high stiffness frame incorporates a crosshead guidance system to prevent side loading of the test sample.
