Air is forced over the heating elements located in an insulated enclosure protecting the user and forced into the working chamber area top and bottom. It is then drawn back through the centre of the chamber, through a baffler to the heating elements and recirculated.

 

Controller type Eurotherm model 3016 for single thermocouple temperature control configuration. Optional sub-zero temperature testing is available via a self-pressurising liquid nitrogen Dewar.

 

Door is left hinged. Safety interlock operated by door hinge cut heating process when door is opened. Viewing window is central to door 350mm high by 170mm wide. supports use of non contacting extensometer and deflectometers.

 

The chamber is supported on a frame located between the columns of the testing machine. When the chamber is not in use, the chamber can be rolled back and parked clear of the operating area.

Tinius Olsen’s popular line of SL hydraulic testing machines is complemented by a series of compression-only test frames. These frames have the same robust design, quality materials and precision engineering as the tension and compression frames, but test in compression only.

 

The Tinius Olsen SL series stands out because of its accuracy, dependability and power. Its efficient footprint size and nominal maintenance comes from the patented dual low pressure hydraulic loading system, which delivers exacting control of movement when it is under constant speed, stress or strain rate control.

 

All SL systems meet ASTM, ISO, GOST, GB and other international standards in terms of accuracy. Accuracy is within or better than +/- 0.5% of applied force from 0.2% to 100% of frame capacity.

 

There are a number of interface options available in support of test productivity and user preferences: tethered handheld, wireless and/or virtual through the test, control and reporting software.
