About Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester

Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester

Paint often becomes soiled especially near doorways, windows, and in work and play areas. Coated surfaces need to be tested for resistance to abrasion caused by a brush, sponge, or other means. The Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester can produce a repeatable, controlled condition to simulate everyday use or wear patterns.

It accords with standards such as ASTM D2486, ASTM D3450, ASTM D4213, ASTM D4828, DIN EN 11330, EN ISO 11998 etc.

Advanced Microprocessor Control

The Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester features a state-of-the-art microprocessor-based control system, ensuring high accuracy and user-friendly operation. Digital preset timers and a clear LCD display streamline workflow, allowing for precise setup and reproducible results. Safety mechanisms such as overload and fuse protection further enhance operational security and reliability.

Versatile and Standards-Compliant

Engineered for coatings, paints, and surface finishing, this tester provides flexibility for a range of applications. With compliance to ASTM D4828 and ISO 11998, the system enables laboratories, manufacturers, and suppliers in India to confidently conduct industry-accepted abrasion resistance tests, supporting quality assurance processes.

Robust Construction and Connectivity

Constructed from durable powder-coated steel, the Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester withstands demanding lab environments. The instrument accommodates environmental conditions from 5C to 45C and up to 90% non-condensing humidity. Integrated USB and RS232 ports facilitate seamless connectivity for data export, documentation, and integration into laboratory information management systems.

FAQs of Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester:

Q: How does the Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester measure abrasion resistance?

A: This tester evaluates abrasion resistance by moving a brush, weighted at approximately 250 g, over a coated or painted sample plate in a controlled manner. The sample is subjected to a predetermined number of cycles (up to 500), with motion length and speed set according to ASTM D4828 and ISO 11998 standards. Results are displayed digitally, allowing for accurate comparison and quality validation.

Q: What are the benefits of using a microprocessor-based control system in this tester?

A: A microprocessor-based system offers precise control over scrub speed (3740 cycles/minute), cycle count, and timing. The digital interface makes setting test parameters and monitoring results straightforward, ensures reproducible outcomes, and minimizes human errors during operation. This contributes to consistently accurate testing data and efficiency in laboratory workflows.

Q: When should I use the Wet Abrasion Scrub Tester in quality assurance?

A: This instrument is ideally used during the quality control or product development phase for coatings, paints, and surface finishes. It confirms whether the material meets abrasion resistance standards specified by ASTM D4828 and ISO 11998, helping manufacturers and suppliers ensure product reliability before shipment or launch.

Q: Where can this device be installed and operated?

A: The tester is suitable for laboratories, manufacturing QA/QC areas, and research facilities in India that require compliance with international standards. It operates within ambient temperature ranges of 5C to 45C and up to 90% non-condensing humidity, making it adaptable to most controlled indoor environments.

Q: What is the usage process for testing a sample?

A: Prepare the coating or painted sample on the provided plate (280 mm x 30 mm interior). Place it in the tester, set the desired number of cycles (10500), speed, and timer using the LCD controls. Start the test; the brush (12 mm diameter, 250 g weight) will move in a 300 mm path, simulating wear. After completion, analyze the sample according to your measurement protocols.

Q: What connectivity options are provided for data handling?

A: The tester includes both USB and RS232 ports, enabling direct export of test data for archiving, further analysis, or integration with laboratory information management systems. This supports efficient documentation and data traceability in regulated environments.

Q: How does overload and fuse protection benefit the operator and tester?

A: Overload and fuse protection safeguards the instrument and user by automatically interrupting power in the event of mechanical or electrical overload. This ensures operational safety, reduces downtime, and protects the testers internal electronics for longer lifespan and reliability.
