Testing Screen

Our redesigned Test-Master test screen allows accurate particle size separations for large samples. It now includes an integrated, easy-to-check hopper for easier sample introduction

Vertically hinged front doors provide improved access and clearance while reducing harmful dust. The internal rotating counterweights of the Test-Master drive system equalize the vertical screening action for quiet and smooth operation. The standard vibration characteristics are designed for medium-density coarse materials, such as limestone or gravel aggregates, and the Test-Master is also ideal for coal, coke, ore and many other dry granular materials.

The Test-Master can be placed anywhere in the laboratory without the need for permanent installation. The 1.6 ft³ (45.3 L) hopper is hinged at the rear and allows the sample to be introduced incrementally during machine operation. When the hopper is closed, a panel prevents dust from escaping through the opening. Narrower panel doors require less space to open and fold flat on the front of the unit. The doors also have a safety switch that disables the Test-Master® when it is open.

An integrated electronic digital controller has an LED display of the remaining time and produces an audible tone at the end of the test cycle. test cycles of up to 99 minutes, 59 seconds can be programmed and the cycles can be interrupted without loss of test time. An ergonomically operated pedal easily controls the hydraulic clamping and pressure release system for the screen plates.

The TM-5 units accept six screening trays and a larger tray spacing is ideal for samples with larger particles for more efficient agitation.

The TM-6 units have a capacity of seven trays and have the same reliable, fully enclosed drive system and electronic digital controller as the other models.

Independently removable screen trays are shared by the Testing Screen and Test-Master® models and are available in a wide range of opening sizes with a fabric specification ASTM E11, ISO 565 or a perforated steel plate. The screen printing cloth is replaceable, guaranteeing a long service life and inexpensive maintenance of the trays. Both operate with a powerful 1/3hp capacitor-started motor.
