Product catalog summary
Overview: The PERME®W3/230 Water Vapor Transmission Rate Test System is a professional, high-efficiency, and intelligent system designed to measure the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of film and package specimens. It features three test modes suitable for materials with varying water vapor permeability and includes a high-precision infrared sensor.
Specifications: The system offers a wide test range from 0.001 to 1000 g/m²·24h. It supports automatic temperature and humidity control, with a temperature range of 15℃ to 55℃ and humidity range from 0%RH to 100%RH. The system can test up to three specimens simultaneously, with independent results for each.
Efficiency: The W3/230 system integrates three diffusion cells in one instrument, enhancing test efficiency by three times. It can connect with up to 9 satellite bases, allowing for up to 30 tests simultaneously. It also supports combined testing with Labthink’s oxygen transmission rate test system.
Intelligence: The system is equipped with user-friendly software for easy operation and intelligent data management. It supports the Lystem™ Lab Data Sharing System for uniform management of test results and reports.
Test Principle: The system uses the infrared method, where the specimen is placed in a diffusion cell divided into dry and controlled-humidity chambers. Dry nitrogen carries the water vapor permeating through the specimen to an infrared sensor, generating electrical signals to calculate the WVTR.
Standards and Applications: The instrument conforms to standards such as ISO 15106-2 and ASTM F1249. It is applicable to a wide range of materials, including films, sheets, paper, packages, and extended applications like LCD monitor films and solar back-sheets.
Technical Specifications: The system requires high-purified nitrogen as a carrier gas, with a flow rate of 0-200 ml/min and pressure of 0.28 MPa. It includes a mainframe, professional software, and various accessories, with optional parts available for extended testing capabilities.
Note: Customers need to prepare the gas supply and distilled water for operation.

ASTM E96 Moisture Vapor Permeability Tester for Building MateriaLS-3

Test Principle Infrared method is used by W3/230 Water Vapor Transmission Rate Test System: The test specimen is mounted in the diffusion cell, which is subsequently divided into a dry chamber and a controlled-humidity chamber. The dry side of the specimen is swept by a flow of dry nitrogen, and the water vapor permeating through the specimen from the controlled-humidity chamber is carried by dry nitrogen to the infrared sensor where proportion electrical signals will be generated. The water vapor transmission rate is obtained by analyzing and calculating the electrical signals. For package samples,...
