Specification:

• The instrument is easy to use, with an easy-to read display
• Pneumatic clamping and pendulum release gives stable, accurate and reproducible results stable and accurate, regardless of operator.
• Calculation, calibration, internal tests, zero setting, pendulum release and presentation of results are all handled by the built-in Microprocessor.
• Easy interchangeable pendulums. One pendulum is included and each pendulum is delivered with one check weight.
• Easy to calibrate using the dead weights.
• The results is presented as the individual tearing resistance, Tearing index and Tear factor on an alpha-numeric display.
