The ForTest T8730, was designed for measuring flows on parts such as filters (medicinal, diesel or petrol) tubes, nozzles, openings and valves. Other than the classic flow measurement, the instrument also has other ways of making it as versatile as possible in its own category: ascent and descent ramps, opening tests and burst testing.
During a test, with infinite times allowing adjustment of the taps and part repairs in real time. The tool also prevails as an intelligent pressure adjustment unit, which uses the automatic pressure regulator to continuously adjust the test pressure based on the variation in load loss. Ensuring the reading is as stable and repetitive as possible with standard flow valves, it's ideal for testing volumes up to 8 liters.
Limitless connectivity.
The new T8730 equipment includes ports for the USB slave, RS232, RS485, Can bus and TTY. Assembly may also include an optional Ethernet port and a 26-pole connector with 4 inputs and 8 outputs, which are completely programmable, for interfacing with the external valves, safety barriers, switches, etc...
The front panel has a master USB port for connection to a USB key to save the tests conducted, backup/restore parameters and upgrade tool firmware. The connection to thermal printers, barcode/data-matrix readers and markers takes place automatically using an internal menu.
Top category technology.
Fortest decided not to make compromises when equipping the T8730, assembling the best components currently on the market, such as the piezoelectric electronic regulator which guarantees stable and repetitive adjustment, or the solid-state sensor with a vast reading range, or the specific valves for this model, with a life estimated to be in the tens of millions of cycles.
All these advantages offer a never before seen precision performance, stability and accuracy.
Measurement resolution starts with 0.1 cc/min based at the bottom of the scale, varying from 1,000 to 20,000 cc/min, with maximum pressure of 2 bar.
Made to measure pneumatic section.
To avoid overheating due to long activation times of the filling circuit, Fortest has designed particularly high capacitive pneumatic valves, which not only work in hot temperatures, but also quickly fill the piece being tested. Making the T8730 also suitable for testing on parts with significant volumes.
All of the above advantages offered, while still maintaining ForTest's historic reliability.
Innovative design.
What appears to be a simple design, in fact hides an in-depth study to make use and understanding of the equipment as simple as possible.
The front panel is made of a single sheet of tempered glass and aluminium, which makes it extremely easy to clean, making the T8730 suitable for use in the laboratory and on the production line.
The extensive internal menus are easy to understand and the graphic interface was designed to only display important information.
Everything is exactly where it should be.
