Automatic compression tester

Pilot 4: This NEW generation series of compression machines featuring Energy Saving technology (“ES technology”) has been developed to satisfy Standard requirements and high quality of testing. The test cycle with closed loop digital feedback is automatically performed by simply pressing the start button. The load-time graph and the actual load rate are displayed in real time during the test. Correct test execution according the selected Standard, is continuously and automatically controlled. “ES technology” features accurate oil flow control, conforming to Standards, resulting in no oil...
