2022 Zwick/Roell Amsler HDT/VIcat

For sale is an Amsler HDT/Vicat Allround 6-300 material testing system, Item No. 109493612, designed for precise heat deflection temperature (HDT), Vicat softening temperature, and creep testing of plastics and polymer materials. The system is configured with two measuring stations as standard, with the capability to expand up to six measuring stations, making it suitable for laboratory, quality control, and research environments.

The unit offers a controllable temperature range from +20 °C to +300 °C, with a maximum creep test temperature of 288 °C and a maximum creep test duration of 48 hours. Temperature measurement is handled via Pt100 sensors, with one sensor per measuring station and an additional sensor per bath. The system provides high-precision thermal performance, including a display accuracy of ±0.5 °C at 300 °C, a spatial temperature gradient of ±0.1 °C, and a temperature resolution of 0.01 °C. The heat transfer fluid holding capacity is a minimum of 18 liters.

Displacement measurement is performed using a digital linear displacement transducer, offering a measurement range of 1 to 16 mm, a resolution of 0.001 mm, sensor accuracy of ±0.002 mm, and overall system accuracy of ±0.01 mm. This level of precision makes the system well suited for standardized materials testing and compliance applications.

The Amsler HDT/Vicat Allround 6-300 is designed for indoor laboratory operation and features automatic or manual cooling controlled via software. It operates within an ambient temperature range of +10 °C to +35 °C and supports storage and transport temperatures from -25 °C to +55 °C, with non-condensing relative humidity between 20% and 90%. Average operating noise is less than 55 dB(A) measured at one meter from the front of the machine.

The system measures approximately 878 mm in height with the door closed, 1430 mm with the door open, 1280 mm in width, and 700 mm in depth, with a weight of approximately 196 kg when equipped with two measuring stations, excluding weights and heat transfer fluid. Communication is provided via an Ethernet PC interface.

Power requirements include 120V, single-phase (1Ph/N/PE) power with a permissible voltage fluctuation of ±10%, maximum current consumption of 30 A, and full-load power consumption of approximately 3.8 kVA, operating at 50/60 Hz. The system complies with IEC 61010-1 overvoltage category II standards.

The machine is located in Santa Paula, California. Please contact for pricing, inspection details, additional photos, or further technical information.
