A2000

The HITEC Luxembourg A 2000 is the commercial/industrial scale available solution to test according ASTM D1514, ISO 1437 as well as JIS K 6218-3

This test method covers the determination of sieve residue after mechanical water flushing of for example regular untreated carbon blacks. It may not be applicable to oil-treated carbon blacks because the oil would prevent proper wetting of the black by water. The test set A 2000 is used worldwide mainly for carbons. Applications for inorganic pigments and fillers / extenders are also possible. Being a standard product, repeatability and reproducibility are better compared to self-built solutions.

Sieves according to ISO 565 DIN 3310-1

Sieves with a diameter of 50 mm with or without an impact tongue are used according to different test methods. These screens make the handling for the user very simple and allow the weighing by using standard analytical balances. The sieves are supplied either with plastic rings (Type A – Weight 5 g) or stainless steel rings (Type B– Weight 20 g). The sieve fabric is testing sieve fabric according to DIN 9044 ISO 4783. It is possible to obtain testing certificates (3.1 B according to DIN EN 10204 or factory certificates 2.2.)
