Dilatometer DF-4

Overview

  • Swelling rate (increase in volume when heated) is an important indicator of the quality of coal for coking. It is determined by a standard dilatometric test.
  • From the expansion curves the following numerical parameters of the tested coal samples can be deduced:
    • Softening Temperature
    • Temperature of maximum contraction
    • Temperature of maximum dilatation
    • Value of maximum contraction
    • Value of maximum dilatation

Features

  • High productivity of measurement
  • One measuring cycle = Four samples measured at once
  • Contact less measuring of measuring pistons movement (dilatation)
  • Fully automated performance
  • One measuring cycle lasts for approx. 120 minutes
  • Course of the test controlled by Computer
  • Real time monitoring of complete measuring process
  • Auto-diagnostics of the equipment
  • Measurement of temperature of each dilatation measuring tube
  • Precise digital control of furnace unit
