PORTABLE HARDNESS TESTER EPX5500

Portable Hardness Tester EPX5500

The EPX5500 is an impact hardness tester similar to model EPX300, but with a touch screen display.

Featuring by a low power consumption, it has a 3.7V rechargeable lithium battery and charger.

Many features are customizable from the menu, from which the user can also automatically perform the calibration using the test block.

It has the ability to store up to 800 values, and easily recall them by using the touch screen.

"D" TYPE IMPACT DEVICE

The ENPAIX durometers are fitted with universal impact device D.

The impact device allows high precision measurements at any angle.

It's used to measure all the materials with thickness not less than 3mm and weight not less than 5kg. The pieces that don't have these features can also be measured using appropriate actions (e.g.: by fixing the piece on a granite surface).
