• Determines plasticity and consistency of pasty, creamy, semi-solid, or highly viscous samples
• Test kits for standardized methods covering measuring petrochemicals, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food
• Available with needles, cones, perforated disks, rods, and rams
PNR 12 automatically measures the resistance a material provides to being pierced by a specifically shaped test body. The harder the test material, the more pointed and needle-like the test body should be.
The penetrometer is used for consistency and plasticity determination of pasty, creamy, semi-solid or highly viscous samples.
Benefits at a Glance
• The patented force sensor plunger (optional) will detect the surface of samples even underneath a layer of water. It starts the standardized test sequence automatically and digitally reports the results on the display.
Suitable samples are bitumen < 160 PU (1 Penetration Unit = 0.1 mm), waxes and other comparable hard materials.
• 20 programs (16 of which are individually user-definable)
• Automatic data conversion (NLGI-class, EN-bitumen value, ¼-cone to solid cone and ½-cone to solid cone)
• Limit indicator which gives an alarm when the test value falls outside preset values
• Statistical and database functionality (storage of 200 tests, evaluation of Min, Max, Mean)
• Data readout with USB stick, conversion to Excel®
• Automatic measurements of electrically conductive samples
Convenient Operation
• Magnifier and extra bright LED sample illumination for reliable manual surface detection
• Jog wheel driven menu (turn and push)
• Password protection
Customized User Flexibility
• Typical PNR 12 accessories:
• Needles are suitable for measurements on bitumen, wax, food, cosmetics, etc.
• Cones are used for measurements on fats, greases, jellies, creams and similar materials
• Perforated disks are primarily used for measuring fluid and highly viscous materials
• Rods & rams are suitable for semi-liquid fats, greases and pastes, emulsions, honey, paints, varnishes, potting compounds, ceramic pastes, bread and confectionery
• Test kits for grease, waxes, food, cosmetics, sealing mass, pharmaceuticals, etc. are available.
• Calibration kit (optional), officially certified for time, distance and temperature check
• Sensor (optional) for temperature measuring and recording
• Due to the variety of available test bodies PNR 12 is a modular system and comes without a test body
