Product overviewThe CIT-100A measures the volume and release rate of gas generated when a material contacts water, enabling classification and hazard assessment for packaging and transport of reactive substances.
ComplianceDesigned to meet international and national standards including UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria (33.4.1.4 Test N.5), specifications for classification and labeling of chemicals for water-contact substances, GA/T 536.4-2005 and NY/T 1860.29-2016. Suitable for tests referenced in regulations addressing substances that release flammable gases on contact with water.
Functions & features- Pressure-balance measurement combined with high-precision pressure sensing and precise motion control for accurate collection and calculation of gas volume and release rate.
- Simultaneous display of peak release rate (minute and hour scales) and cumulative gas volume, with rate curve plotting.
- Traceable instrument calibration routines and calibration tools to ensure test accuracy.
- Automatic closed-sample entry into water to prevent gas loss during sample addition.
- Test chamber temperature control via constant-temperature circulation tank and thermal metal plates for uniform thermal conduction.
- Sealed gas piping with acid/base corrosion resistance.
- Automatic gas-line cleaning for rapid removal of residual gases.
- Optional gas collection bag for component analysis or combustion testing of collected gas.
- Observation window with interior lighting for visual monitoring of reactions.
- Accessories for water-entry, immersion (stay) and drip tests.
- Fully automated test sequences with parameter setting, real-time status display, data storage and report viewing; original data saved automatically.
- 7-inch LCD touchscreen with Chinese intelligent input method for simplified operation.
- Embedded processor running Windows CE for stable, responsive operation.
