HV-3000-D3
HDT/VICAT Tester

The HDT/VICAT tester is specifically designed to assess the heat deflection temperature (HDT) and the VICAT softening temperature of materials, providing essential data for evaluating their thermal properties.
This instrument provides a variety of test options, allowing operators to determine the deflection and softening temperature of plastics and polymers under various conditions.


PRINCIPLE: The HV-3000-D3 HDT/VICAT tester is a compact model for assessing the heat deflection temperature (HDT) and VICAT softening temperature of materials under specific loads and temperatures. It provides manufacturers an easy-to-use solution to evaluate the deflection performance of materials when subjected to high temperatures. The insights delivered by this instrument are valuable for optimizing product design and material selection, ensuring that the products meet the expected performance.

WIDE APPLICABILITY: Well-suited for diverse industries such as aerospace, material science, construction, automotive, energy, medical devices, and industrial manufacturing.

FLEXIBILITY: The motorized test station allows operators to install samples and conducts tests easily and quickly.

HIGH-PRECISION CONTROL: Employs linear calibration methods to maintain accuracy in measurements across different temperature conditions.

UNIFORM TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION: Utilizes a high-efficiency vortex stirrer system to achieve uniform temperature distribution in the oil bath, enhancing test repeatability and reliability. 

FUME EXTRACTION: Constructed with an enclosed extraction structure to remove fumes generated during tests, ensuring safety during operation.

WATER COOLING SYSTEM: The HV-3000-D3 is equipped with an efficient water-cooling heat exchanger and water solenoid valve to remove heat in the oil bath. Additionally, an optional and specialized water chiller is also available to cool down the oil bath more effectively.
