Three Channel System For Gel Time Measurement

Model No. :

Brand : Gel Instrument

The Geltimer with PTC-3 is a sophisticated measurement system designed to monitor the curing characteristics and exothermic temperature profiles of reaction resins. This instrument combines a precise mechanical gelation timer with a multi-channel digital controller to deliver comprehensive data for laboratory analysis and quality assurance.

  • Simultaneous gel time and temperature recording

  • High resolution digital data acquisition system

  • Multiple interface ports for printer connectivity

− Features

  • Dual-Parameter Monitoring: Uniquely captures both the mechanical gelation point and the thermal exothermic reaction curve simultaneously, providing a complete picture of the material’s curing behavior.
  • Multi-Channel Controller: The PTC-3 unit features three independent measurement channels, allowing for the connection of a temperature sensor (PT100) and two external gel timer units for increased laboratory throughput.
  • Integrated Data Storage: Built with an internal memory buffer that stores measurement values securely, protecting data integrity even during long-term testing sessions before transfer to a PC.
  • Extensive Timing Range: Supports precise time measurement up to 99 hours and 59 minutes with a 1-second resolution, making it suitable for both rapid-curing and slow-curing polymer systems.
  • Comprehensive Connectivity: Equipped with RS-232 and USB interfaces to facilitate seamless data export to “Geltimer” software for professional graphing, analysis, and report generation.
