Low temperature bath for charpy impact testing
In material testing laboratories, achieving precise and consistent temperatures during Charpy impact testing is crucial to ensure accurate and reproducible results. Traditional methods involving expendable refrigerants are not only costly but also pose significant safety hazards, complicating operations in small-scale lab environments.
Maintains precise temperature for charpy testing
The CharpyCool™ Low Temperature Bath by Scientific Products (SP FTS) is designed to meet the stringent requirements of Charpy impact testing. This self-contained system effectively eliminates the need for dangerous and costly expendable refrigerants such as liquid nitrogen or dry ice. With a temperature control range of -80°C to +30°C, it accommodates up to 91 test specimens in its 8-liter bath. The built-in variable speed magnetic stirrer and vortex beaker provide exceptional temperature uniformity and stability, ensuring that the working fluid maintains a consistent temperature. The system’s PID control sustains precise temperature regulation within ±0.1°C, supported by a digital temperature display. The CharpyCool meets the ASTM E23 temperature stability standards, making it ideal for laboratories focused on metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites testing.
