LOSS ON HEATING OVEN-(ASTM D6)

Compliance with following International Standards:

IP 45, IS 1212, ASTM D6-90, ASTM D1754, AASHTO T-47, AASHTO T179. EN 13303.

Purpose:

The loss in bituminous material when heated is called loss on heating of bituminous material. This test is done to determine the amount of loss of bitumen by certain heating and to determine the amount of water mixed in the bituminous material.

Technical Specifications:

1. Internal circuit wiring as per CE Norms
2. Exterior body made of mild steel material, which is powder coated in attractive shades
3. Inner chamber is made of Stainless Steel S.S. 304 - mirror polished material.
4. 65mm high density Glass wool insulation on all sides to offer minimum chamber heat loss
5. Oven is fitted with heating elements on all three sides, ensuring uniform temperature distribution throughout the working chamber
6. Sealed and enclosed heaters to working chamber for minimum heat loss
7. Microprocessor based Auto tune - PID Digital temperature indicator cum controller 
8. 80/20 nichrome heating elements, ensuring long lasting and continuous heating within the chamber
9. Special heavy duty Stainless steel lock and door hinges with spring and roller mechanism
10. Stainless steel crimped wire mesh Shelves to withstand heavy load and to offer minimum resistance to air circulation for better heat distribution
11. Provision to add more shelves, as per requirement of test - Adjustable Shelves to place test samples or Glass wares of varying dimensions
12. The door will contain 100 x 100 mm window with two sheets of toughened glass separated by an air space.
13. The oven will be provided with the circular metal shelf having a diameter of 250mm and with a mechanical means of rotating it at the rate of 5 to 6 rpm.
14. With built-in forced air circulation arrangement for uniform heat distribution inside the working chamber
15. Operation on 220/230 Volt, 50 Hz, Single phase, AC Supply
16. Complete with pilot indicating lamps, 2 meter cord wire and power plug.
