OverviewInstrument for measuring water permeability of textile materials by determining the hydrostatic pressure required for water penetration through a sample. It also measures sample resistance to water passage under constant hydrostatic pressure.
Features- Standard test area: 100 cm² (other sizes available on request)
- Measuring range: 0–50,000 mm H2O
- Adjustable hydrostatic pressure variants: up to 10 m H2O (Code 3241C), up to 20 m H2O (Code 3241D), up to 30 m H2O (Code 3241E)
