AATCC 15 tester models and their published ranges
The TNG1034 Perspiration Tester / Perspirometer is designed to meet the requirements of AATCC 15, ensuring accurate and reliable testing of color fastness to perspiration.
Overview of AATCC 15 and Its Relevance
AATCC 15 is a standard that evaluates the color fastness of textiles to perspiration. This test is crucial for assessing how well fabrics retain their color when exposed to sweat, which is a common scenario in everyday use. The TNG1034 Perspiration Tester / Perspirometer is specifically engineered to comply with this standard, providing a controlled environment that simulates the conditions of perspiration exposure. By adhering to AATCC 15, the instrument ensures that the test results are consistent and comparable across different laboratories and materials.
Specifications of the TNG1034 Perspiration Tester / Perspirometer
The TNG1034 Perspiration Tester / Perspirometer (TNG1034) is equipped with several specifications that support the testing procedures outlined in AATCC 15. One of the key specifications is the length of the test chamber, which is 190 mm. This dimension is critical for ensuring that the fabric sample is adequately exposed to the perspiration solution without any physical constraints that could affect the test results. Another important specification is the weight capacity of the instrument, which is 7 kg. This ensures that the device can handle a variety of fabric samples, including those that are relatively heavy, without compromising the accuracy of the test.
The TNG1034 is also designed to accommodate multiple testing standards, including AATCC 15, AATCC 107 (for water), and AATCC 106 (for sea water). This versatility allows the instrument to be used for a wide range of testing scenarios, making it a valuable tool in laboratories that require comprehensive color fastness evaluations.
Comparison with Related Instruments
While the TNG1034 is specifically tailored for AATCC 15 testing, it is part of a broader family of instruments designed for color fastness evaluation. Each model within this family is built to meet specific standards, ensuring that the testing process is both accurate and efficient. The TNG1034's specifications, such as the 190 mm length and 7 kg weight capacity, are carefully chosen to align with the requirements of AATCC 15, thereby supporting the integrity of the test results. By focusing on these key specifications, the TNG1034 ensures that the testing environment is consistent and reliable, contributing to the overall quality of the color fastness assessment.
