Fogging Tester

FT-01 Fogging Tester is professionally designed for the fogging characteristics evaluation of volatile constituents of decorating materials used in cars and aircrafts, e.g. plastic articles, polyurethane, textiles, leather, adhesives, nonwovens and thermal forming elastomers at high temperature conditions. It also could be used for the fogging phenomenon test of high intensity discharge (HID) headlamps of cars.

Product Features

Wide range and high precision of temperature control device to support the combinations of non-standard test conditions.

 

Using brand temperature sensor, high and low temperature control is more accurate.

 

Conforms to multiple testing methods including gloss method, haze method and weighing method.

 

6 test stations can perform specimen test or blank test simultaneously.

 

Ensures accurate and reliable test data through stable running condition.

 

Controlled by microcomputer, with LED digital display screen and PVC operation panel, which is convenient to view the test data and results quickly.

 

Equipped with liquid level display according to different automotive standards.

 

Test Principles

 

The preconditioned specimen is heated and evaporates in the beaker; the volatile constituents condense on the glass plate or aluminum foil treated in cooling chamber. Take off the glass plate or aluminum foil when the condensation process is finished. The fogging characteristics could be obtained by measuring condensed constituent weight and fogging value on the glass plate or aluminum foil and comparing with the data before condensation process.

 

Measurement method

 

Gloss Method: the specimen is heated in the beaker and its volatile constituents are condensed on the cooling glass plate. The fogging value could be obtained by calculating and comparing the gloss values occurred before and after condensation process. (Standard configuration).

 

Haze Method: the specimen is heated in the beaker and its volatile constituents are condensed on the cooling glass plate. The fogging value of the specimen could be obtained by calculating and comparing the fogging values occurred before and after condensation process.. (Optional).

 

Weighing Method: the specimen is heated in the beaker and its volatile constituents are condensed on the cooling aluminum foil. The fogging value - the weight of condensed constituents could be obtained by analyzing the weight changes of aluminum foil occurred before and after condensation process. (Standard configuration, balance purchased separately).

 

Product Structure:

 

The instrument mainly consists of constant high-temperature bath, constant low-temperature bath, cooling plate, beaker, glass plate, meter, sample cutter and other accessories, through which it can perform the processes of sampling, heating, condensation and test.

 

Operation Steps:

 

Prepare specimens→switch on high and low temperature baths→clean beakers and glass plates→place specimens→place glass plate or aluminum foil→place cooling chamber→perform test for a specified period of time→take off glass plate or aluminum foil and place certain time→measure the gloss value, fogging value of glass plate or weight value of aluminum foil-→compare the data and obtain test results.
