All technical data are specified for units with standard equipment at an ambient temperature of 25 °C (77 °F) and a line voltage fluctuation of ±10%. The temperature data is determined in accordance to factory standard following DIN 12880, respecting the recommended wall clearances of 10% of the height, width and depth of the inner chamber. All figures are typical average values for series devices. We reserve the right to alter technical specifications at any time.
BINDER Data Logger Kits
The new BINDER Data Logger Kits – Makes independent recording of temperature data in the BINDER device possible. The tailored product solution contains helpful accessories: from mounting the logger to the BINDER device to cable access assistance to the sensor mount.
Access port
With silicone plugs for introducing external measuring instruments into the chamber, access ports with 30, 50, 80, 100, 125 mm (1.18, 1.97, 3.15, 3.94, 4.72 inch) diameters.
Notch-type access port in door
Provides easy connection of cables to test specimens and facilitates loading and unloading of the chamber. Doors have access ports measuring 100 x 35 mm (4 x 1.4 inch), which can be sealed with the included silicone plugs.
