Chemical, utility and other processing plants are often exposed to heat, aggressive media and high pres­sure.

Perfect for client color presentations, lab applications, and anywhere color is critically viewed, the PDV-2e/M complies with ASTM D1729 standards and is designed for visual color assessment, comparison of color variations, and the detection of metamerism (when color samples appear to match under one illumination condition but distinctly change when viewed under a different illumination condition). Features include four light sources--D65, CWF (TL84 optional), Incandescent and UV, an ETM elapsed time meter to monitor usage of the daylight source, and an international voltage selector.

The LaserPaint is a spray gun attachment used to improve spray application performance and increase transfer efficiency while decreasing costs, materials and air emissions.

Described in ASTM F 735, the Model 6100 oscillating sand tester is used to measure the resistance of a material to surface abrasion and scratching.

The TP-2C & TP-5C employ the proven RTD design that has been used in the TP-7 and TP-8 for many years.

The PATTI (PNEUMATIC ADHESION TENSILE TESTING INSTRUMENTS) QUANTUM Series is a new line of portable adhesion testers.

The Novo Gloss Trio allows user to Access gloss variations on a large surface in seconds.

The Micro-Wave-Scan can measure orange peel and DOI on small and curved surfaces, with a curvature of greater than 300 mm and DOI measurements are possible without scanning the surface.
