Dimension order and approximate values are stated in each row. Packaging data are separate from instrument dimensions and net mass. Approx. rows are preliminary engineering estimates based on comparable equipment and function/capacity; they are not verified manufacturing measurements or standard requirements. Installation and shipment are finalised against the approved drawing and nameplate. Estimate scope: one scale or small consumable pack; varies with pack quantity.

Specifications, dimensions, and power requirements are approximate and subject to change without prior notice for continuous design improvements.

Product technical specifications and images may vary according to manufacturing conditions and applicable standards.

Test and configuration

Measured output / function
Rubbing cloth for colour transfer during rubbing tests
Parameters selected for the method
Method-specific cloth, cutting and wet pick-up
Verification points
Batch identification, fabric construction and storage conditions

Listed methods are application references. Suitability is established by assessing the selected hardware, current method and calibration together.

Test parameters for the reviewed method

Values belong to the stated source edition. Test recipe, fixture and delivered instrument configuration are selected together.

ISO 105-X12:2001 / EN ISO 105-X12:2002 · 4.1.1 / 4.1.2 / 4.2

  • Rubbing travel: 104 ± 3 mm; applied force: 9.0 ± 0.2 N.
  • Standard cylindrical finger: 16.0 ± 0.1 mm diameter; pile materials use a separate finger geometry.
  • Rubbing cloth for the cylindrical finger: 50 × 50 mm, ±2 mm on each dimension.

AATCC 8-2007 · 5.2, 8.1, 9.2

  • Crock cloth 50 × 50 mm; wet-test pickup 65 ±5%. Specimen and crock cloth conditioned for at least 4 h at 21 ± 1 °C and 65 ±2% RH; conditions included in the report.

Control and recording specification

The following are method-specific software/recording requirements; delivered software modules are defined by the order scope.

  • The need for integrated software depends on the method and selected hardware; manual instruments use an external test record.
  • Method code and edition, specimen ID, operator and selected test parameters are linked to the record.
  • The calculation and endpoint are defined by the selected method edition; instrument signals and operator assessments are kept distinct.
  • Raw measurements, units, valid/invalid test flags and the reported result remain traceable.
  • Calculations are checked against known inputs and an independent calculation; sensor channels are checked against calibration values.
