Pavetest offers a range of temperature controlled cabinet to complement our DTS-30 and DTS-130 servo-hydraulic Dynamic Testing Systems
(DTS). Pavetest is the first manufacturer to adopt a two piece temperature controlled cabinet; comprising an insulate cabinet and a temperature
control unit. The cabinet is permanently mounted on the dynamic testing machines, whilst the temperature control unit can be wheeled
away when not required, leaving the back of the chamber open to accommodate longer jigs/specimens that do not require a controlled environment.
The temperature control unit attaches to the cabinet using a magnetic seal. This isolates the cabinet from mechanical vibrations caused
by the refrigeration unit and circulation fans whilst maintaining an air tight seal between the inside and outside of the chamber. This concept
also makes servicing, replacing or upgrading the temperature control unit virtually effortless, because it can be removed with-out dismantling
the machine or disrupting the testing program.
MAIN FEATURES:
Two piece concept makes servicing, replacing or
upgrading the temperature control unit effortless.
Flexible temperature sensor ensures the
temperature near the specimen is accurately
controlled.
Operator can monitor, set, adjust or “Auto tune” the
temperature controller via the PC.
Heavy duty stainless steel construction.
Powerful re-circulation fans ensure even
temperature through-out the chamber.
Triple Glazed, Argon filled, Lo E glass door with built
in heater.

Pavetest has introduced some additional features to improve the
functionality of our temperature controlled cabinets. The sensor for
the temperature controller is mounted on a flexible arm which
allows the operator to locate the sensor in the vicinity of the test
specimen; providing accurate temperature control where it’s needed
most; right near the specimen.
The temperature controller can be programmed using the virtual
pendant within TestLab software, via a serial link between the
temperature controller and the Control and Data Acquisition System
(CDAS). This allows the operator to monitor, set or adjust a constant
temperature or ramp without touching the temperature controller,
including invoking the “Auto tune” function. This feature is particularly
useful for the TSRST test, where programming the temperature
controller is not a simple task.
