Thermal and Water-Vapour Resistance Tester – Sweating Guarded Hotplate (RET-01A)

Termal ve Su Buharı Direnci Test Cihazı – Terleyen Sıcak Plaka (RET-01A)

Measures thermal resistance (Rct) and water-vapour resistance (Ret) of textiles and textile-like flat materials by the ISO 11092 sweating guarded-hotplate method. 200 × 200 mm porous heated measuring plate, independent active guard and bottom thermal guard; integrated climate chamber (15–55 °C, 30–70% RH), horizontal airflow. Rct 0.002–2.000 m²·K/W, Ret 0–1000 m²·Pa/W; Windows-based software with automatic steady-state detection.
