OmniTest 2.5 Catalyst tester for ASTM D4189 and ASTM D6175

Catalyst crush strength tester, configured for key international test standards including ASTM D4179 and ASTM D6175.

ASTM D4179 covers the measurement of compressive ‘side crush strength’ (SCS) of single pellets in a regular form, such as spheres, short cylinders or tablets, while ASTM D6175 covers the measurement of compressive ‘side crush strength’ (SCS) of single extruded catalysts of 1.6 – 3.2 mm diameter having a length to diameter ratio of ≥ 1:1.

The OmniTest universal testing machine is ideal for performing single pellet crush strength testing, and can be configured with additional fixtures for performing bulk crush strength testing of catalytic material.
