All technical data are specified for units with standard equipment at an ambient temperature of 25 °C and a voltage fluctuation of ±10 %. The temperature data are determinated in accordance to factory standard following DIN 12880 respecting the recommended wall clearances of 10 % of the height, width and depth of the inner chamber. All indications are average values, typical for units produced in series. We reserve the right to alter technical specifications at all times.

  • Waterproof interior power socket in the inner chamber

    Connected to the main switch. To connect ancillary equipment inside the chamber.

  • Additional PT 100 temperature sensor

    In situ or flexible installation for exact temperature measurement within the specimen material; connects to a special plug on the back wall of the inner chamber.

  • BINDER Data Logger kits

    The new BINDER Data Logger kits for temperature can record temperature data of BINDER equipment. This finely tuned product solution also contains useful accessories for mounting the Logger on the BINDER unit, including cable bushings and a sensor mounting bracket.
