Simple, fully-automated testing compliant to the applicable standards
The Conductive and Compressive Heat Resistance (CCHR) device evaluates the potential for skin burns resulting from a fabric’s conductive properties under compression. It is used to test textiles and materials used in protective clothing systems worn by firefighters and other first responders.
Highlights
- Computer-controlled pneumatic cylinder to apply repeatable compression force to the sample
- Automatic test operation utilizes an electronically-controlled sample carriage for measurement accuracy and operator safety
- Precisely weighted copper calorimeter sensor is optimized for human skin response and integrated with the compression system
