Single Station Vicat Test Apparatus

If the temperature controller is on and the temperature of the exchanger’s heat sinks is greter than the
“Lower temperature of the heat sinks” the fans of the heat sinks are turnrd on automatically.
The lower temperature of the heat sinks determines the starting velocity and thus the minimum airflow.
At the upper temperature of the heat sinks, the fans reach the maximum speed and thus produce the max-
imal airflow.
In order to remove the excess heat the fans may continue to run until the heat sinks reach the Run-On
temperature even after switching off the temperature-controller.
If you want to stop the fans before reaching the "Run-On” temperature, press the button.
The fan button changes to and the fans continue to run with a low idle speed.
Various states and actions of the device are displayed during the runtime in the status line.
• Vicat is ready
• wait state
• Drop rod present
• Move to the target position
• Target position achieved
• Rod released
• Penetration
• Measurement
• Move to the cleaning device
• Cleaning the needle
• Cleaning finished
• Tests finished
• Tests not available (if no test is configured and started)
• All tests interrupted (when in the PC-App the button “Interrupt measurements” was pressed)
Turn on the temperature control only if the basin is filled with water!
Without water, the heat exchanger heat sinks get too hot or too cold and can be
dammaged.
There is risk of burns on contact or risk of fire!
Capacity if the basin is approx. 2.3 l.
