Product Profile of Dry Sand Abrasion Test Rig

Dry Sand Abrasion Test Rig uses a rubber-rimmed wheel as the bed for silica abrasive that is fed from a hopper by a nozzle between the sample and the wheel. The Test Rig runs for a set number of revolutions with automatic cut off and the wear is measured by measuring the volume of material lost through mass loss and density measurements. The Test Rig is available in a speed range of 100 - 500 rpm which is continuously variable through AC frequency inverter with helical geared motor of 1.5 Kw. Dry Sand Abrasion Test Rig is designed with 228 mm diameter wheel and requires 3 phase 440 V AC power for operation.
