Professional Technology

1. 10-inch color screen, capacitive touch screen, multi-point touch 0 operating system, easy Control, test results can be saved to Excel file, and can be sent via WIFI to anywhere, can also be saved to the SD card.
2. Automatic test, according to the flow of fabric air permeability, automatic test choose the appropriate
3. Automatic induction test head size, easy to change the test
4. Unique to leak prevention design

Test Principle: The specimen is clamped over the test head opening by pressing down the clamping arm, which then automatically starts the vacuum pump. The system maintains the pre-selected test pressure, and within a few seconds, the air permeability value appears on the display in the chosen unit of measure.

Control Panel: This tester operates with a Samsung tablet featuring a multi-touch interface and Android applications. As a result, users enjoy simple and convenient operation with easy maintenance. Moreover, test results can be transmitted instantly via the network to any location.

Test Report: The system allows users to save results directly in Excel format. In addition, results can be transferred to a computer through the internet or SD card, making them easy to edit, store, and print for analysis.

Configuration: Test result can save as EXCEL format, through intnet or SD card transmitted to the computer, easy to edit and print.

Standard configuration: Main body, Test head 20cm², LABTest analysis software, One Verification Check Plate.
