Autoclaves

“Crazing” is formed by small cracks appearing in the glazed surface of the test piece. The resistance to crazing is determined by subjecting the test piece to high pressure steam in the tank. Once the cycle is complete a coloured dye is washed over the glazed surface and wiped off. If crazing has occurred, the dye will enter the cracks and will remain after the excess is wiped off. The pressurized tanks are all made from stainless steel AISI-304 suitably insulated with rock-wool, while the supporting frame is made from epoxy painted steel.

Thanks to the programmable microprocessor the unit can carry out a serial of standardized cycles in conformity to UNI EN ISO 10545-11 norm but also any customised cycles as the user may wish.

Max working pressure: 10 bar (183.2º C)
