Elcometer 1700 Falling Sand Tester - Technical Specifications

Elcometer 1700 Falling Sand Tester Standards        

Standardized sand placed in the reservoir is released and guided by the tube onto the test specimen, positioned at a 45° angle and at a distance of 25mm from the lower aperture of the tube.

The volume of sand required to obtain total erosion of the coating of a known thickness in an area of approximately 4mm diameter indicates the abrasion resistance.

Can be used in accordance with:

  • ASTM D 968

  • DIN 1164

  • FTMS 141b M6191

  • NFJ 17-093
