Dust Cover Set
The dust covers are made from
waterproof light grey nylon with
mid blue rib edging. Separate
covers are provided for the
Texture Analyser and the control
keyboard (if applicable). They
provide excellent environmental
protection for the instrument
when not in use.
|
Heavy Duty Platform
This is used for fixing many of the
other attachments to the Texture
Analysers. It ensures the precision
alignment of probes and product
samples. PTFE insulating pillars
provide a thermal barrier to minimise
heat transfer between the sample
and the Texture Analyser. |
Probe
Display Base
Perspex display bases are made to
special order and can accommodate
6, 12 or 18 probes. They facilitate
easy selection and safe storage.
Probe code numbers and quantity
must be specified when ordering. |

Video
Playback Indicator
With rapidly occuring events during
a test, important visual features
may be missed or may wish to be
viewed again at a later date. Video
playback can be synchronised with
test data so that frame by frame
analysis is possible.
|
Shatter Screen
Constructed from heavy duty
perspex sheet and giving a high
degree of protection during
destruction testing, the Shatter
Screen is a cost-effective option for
any of the Texture Analyser range. |
Safety
Interlock Cabinet
In order to ensure maximum protection
when testing brittle samples to
destruction, this cabinet is available.
The TA.XTplus fits inside
the cabinet
and will operate only when the door
is safely shut. |

|
Circular
Sample Support
Used to provide stable support
for circular samples for e.g.
penetration/compression tests
with the ability to retain any
potential fluid expressed during
the test. |
Bloom
Jars and
Centralising
Base
ISO Standard jar for Gelatine
testing. It has an internal diameter
of 59mm and a capacity of
approximately 155ml. A centralising
base which fits in the heavy duty
platform is also available for quick
jar centralisation. |
Loadcells
Loadcells are supplied calibrated over
0-100% of their range, the calibration
information being programmed into the
non-volatile memory. This
cannot be
deleted by the user, but the
loadcell can
also be user calibrated with any calibration
weight up to its maximum capacity. The
user is informed at the beginning
of each
test which Calibration Information
is being
used. Loadcells are supplied
in a protective
case and are interchangeable. Full
instructions and all installation tools
required are supplied. |

Flexible
Clamping Arm
The Flexible Clamping Arm is made
from silver chrome and is 13
inches in
length. This allows for a good degree
of flexibility around the testing area.
A strong clamp is positioned on the
end of the arm which possesses
spring-loaded jaws to hold a device
firmly in place. It may be used
for the
holding of such devices as pipettes
for those applications requiring
controlled water addition over the
sample or for holding a temperature
or humidity probe. Ideally this
clamping arm can be attached to the
leg of a Heavy Duty Platform. |
