Key Design Features
- The test chamber is an independently sealed area, isolated from the power area at the bottom and the exhaust lighting area at the top, which prevents flames, high-temperature gases, and leakage gases from spreading to other areas.
- The test chamber is equipped with an exhaust system with air exhaust outlet at the top and air supply port at the bottom left side. The exhaust fan features a long-axis motor and steel wind wheel with large air volume, fire prevention, and high temperature resistance.
- The test chamber is entirely composed of high-temperature resistant and flame-retardant components with no plastic pipelines, wires, rubber gaskets, sealing rings, etc. The chamber door is sealed with high-temperature resistant sealing strips.
- The front door of the test chamber adopts a reinforced double-layer design with reinforced hinges and door locks. The window is made of double-layer explosion-proof tempered glass.
- The back panel uses a hinge on one side and a magnetically adsorbed openable door on the other side for effective explosion venting. When closed, it prevents gas leakage; during explosions, high-pressure gas can push open the pressure relief door to protect equipment and personnel.
- The internal bottom plate of the test chamber adopts an integrated design with no holes or gaps, making it easy to clean.
- Internal lighting is protected by a tempered glass protective cover to prevent damage from flames and projectiles, using standard detachable fasteners for easy replacement.
- The extrusion testing machine meets electrical safety standards. During accidents, the equipment automatically cuts off external input power.
- Self-protection pressure setting function prevents excessive crush pressure from damaging equipment. When pressure reaches the set value, the machine automatically stops and can only raise the crush fixture.
- The fixture can be flexibly disassembled for easy replacement.
