BPVK Vicat Softening Point Temperature Tester (Standard Vicat)

BPVK Vicat Softening Point Temperature Tester (Standard Vicat)

Product Description

This instrument is designed to determine the heat deflection temperature (HDT) and Vicat softening point (VST) of non-metallic materials such as plastics, hard rubber, nylon, electrical insulating materials, long fiber reinforced composites, and high-strength thermosetting laminates. With user-friendly operation and precise control, it is a highly intelligent and advanced testing device.

Applicable Standards

Compliant with the following standards:
GB/T 1633, GB/T 8802, GB/T 1634, ISO 2507, ISO 75, ISO 306, ASTM D1525, ASTM D648, and others.

Key Features

Multiple Safety Protections: Equipped with mechanical and software-based over-temperature protection switches to ensure safe testing.

High-Precision Measurement & Control:
Uses a grating digital dial gauge for accurate deformation measurement.
Temperature is controlled via PID algorithm combined with a fully opto-isolated phase-control module.
Heating rate deviation is kept under 0.5°C.
