The pendulum impact tester PSd 50 is a testing machine to determine the impact strength and impact energy at standard specimens and rods. You have the choice of implementing a pendulum hammer with a working capacity of 50, 25 or 15 J.

Application

The pendulum impact tester PSd 50 with a working capacity of 15, 25 or 50 J is applied for the following tests:

• Charpy impact tests on plastics according to ISO 179-1, ASTM D 6110 as well as GOST 4647
• Izod impact tests on plastics according to ISO 180, ASTM D 256 as well as GOST 19109
• Determination of tensile-impact strength tests on plastics according to ISO 8256 as well as ASTM D 1822
• Impact-bending tests of zinc and zinc alloys according to DIN 50116, DIN 53435 and DIN 51230
• Instrumented impact tests on plastics according to ISO 179-2
• Testing of shear impact strength according to ISO 9653

According to the German standard DIN 51222, this pendulum impact tester can also be used for Charpy tests on metal specimens according to ISO 148-1.

Features

• Reliable measurement results
  The pendulum impact tester PSd 50 is made up of a rigid, box-type machine column with optimized vibration absorption.
• Flexible test applications
  The pendulum rod is prepared to install the U-shape hammer with striker for Charpy, Izod and tensile-impact tests. Thanks to the quick-change system, the striker can be changed easily and rapidly.
  The U-shape pendulum hammer consists of the hammer plate and side plates. The side plates are screwed and pinned at the hammer plate. The pendulum rod is screwed on the hammer plate and fixed with two pins in its position. The striker is screwed the way that it is impossible to mount it incorrectly.
  On the central anvil block, exchangeable support plates can be mounted, depending on the specimen dimensions.
• Comfortable operation
  The impact energy can be adjusted and displayed with a digital display. It can either be displayed as angle or as potential energy.
  The function friction compensation allows determining the lost work due to friction. The displayed value is subtracted from the consumed impact energy depending on the pendulum travel.
• Safety
  The safety enclosure according to DIN 51233 – consisting of a frame with poly-carbonite panels – fulfills all technical safety requirements.
  Depending on the type of specimen, you have the choice between an open and a closed safety enclosure. The open safety enclosure prevents from reaching into swinging area of the pendulum hammer from the operating side, the left side and the rear side of the pendulum impact tester. Thanks to the movably fixed hood on the left side, the safety enclosure can be opened for cleaning and calibration. The closed safety enclosure with door monitoring prevents from reaching into the swinging area of the pendulum hammer from all sides and protects against flying specimen parts.

Application

The pendulum impact tester PSd 50H is designed for impact tests for testing of wood according to DIN 52189-1.

Features
