The EB 22 cell oven for stress relaxation has 6 cells with individual temperatures and individual control of the air exchange rate for each cell. Temperature range +40 °C to +200 °C (HT-version up to +300 °C).

The EB 22 cell oven is specially designed for stress relaxation tests of rubber. This means that the inner height of the cells are adapted to fit our relaxation rigs to achieve as good thermal contact as possible with the bottom of the cell.

The oven also has an intergrated draught hood that eliminates the changes in the force during the test due to temperature changes in the environment around the top part of the rigs. The hood is made of polycarbonate, and has a temperature control system (Peltier cooling system) capable of keeping the temperature within ± 0,25 °C.

Note: For the best performance of the instrument, we recommend a placement in an environment with a stable temperature between +10 to +30 °C.

• Temperature controlled cooling fan for the electronics cabinet
• Indication of power failure (PLC)
• Run-time meter (PLC)
• Countdown timer (PLC)
• Individual cell identifier “Test name”
• Microfilter for the air which removes 99,99 % of all particles over 0,1 μm

Included accessories

• Manual in English
• Stylus pen for the instrument touch screen
• Accredited calibration including certificate

Options

• EB-P – Ramp function for cycling temperature settings in the PLC. Observe that cooling of the oven will be natural cooling due to ambient temperature (very slow and non-controlled) for all ovens except for EB 21 LTHTP, EB 32 and EB 17.
