FAQs of APP. FOR DETERMINATION OF STORAGE STABILITY:
Q: How does the apparatus determine the storage stability of bitumen samples?
A: The device utilizes a controlled environment with a programmable magnetic stirrer and digital controller to maintain precise temperature and consistent agitation of samples housed in two cylinders. By following the IS:6241 stirring method, it measures phase separation in bitumen over a set period to evaluate storage stability.
Q: What is the typical process for conducting a test with this equipment?
A: To perform a test, samples are placed into the borosilicate glass cylinders, the magnetic stirrer is activated, and the digital timer is set according to the IS:6241 standard. The chamber temperature is adjusted (up to 110C), and the apparatus stirs the samples for the programmed duration, after which the stability of the bitumen is assessed.
Q: When should this equipment be used in a bitumen laboratory?
A: It should be employed whenever you need to verify the storage stability of bitumen, particularly for quality assurance or research purposes. Its essential before large-scale application of bitumen, especially where long-term performance and homogeneity are critical.
Q: Where can this apparatus be effectively installed?
A: The compact dimensions (550 x 330 x 360 mm) and sturdy build allow for installation in research laboratories, asphalt production facilities, or quality control departments, predominantly in environments with an ambient temperature between 5C and 35C.
Q: What benefits does this equipment offer over conventional storage stability testers?
A: Featuring semi-automatic and fully automatic modes, precise digital temperature control (0.5C), programmable mixing, and advanced safety systems, the apparatus ensures higher reliability and repeatability, reduced operator intervention, and enhanced safety through overtemperature protection.
Q: How does the safety feature protect the equipment and user during operation?
A: The built-in overtemperature protection system automatically shuts off the heating element if the temperature exceeds the preset threshold, thereby preventing overheating and ensuring operator and sample safety during prolonged testing.
