TE-BBR SD

Precise, Repeatable Results

• Meets or exceeds ASTM, AASHTO, and SHRP requirement for low temperature flexural creep testing of asphalt binders including ASTM D6648 and AASHTO T 313
• Instrument sample supports feature specimen support strips 3 mm ±0.30 mm in top radius
• Temperature range: ambient to −40 °C.
• Temperature stability: ±0.03 °C with resolution to ±0.01 °C.
• Resolves specimen beam deflection to 0.155 µm (1550 Å)
• Resolves force to within 0.147 mN (0.015 g)

Reliable and Versatile Performance

• Instruments installed and in operation in asphalt testing labs throughout the world
• Performance verified through ASTM round-robin testing
• Pneumatic pressure regulators allow operator to adjust pressure on main input line, air bearing, and load shaft support
• Capable of measuring specimen beam loads from 0 g to 500 g
• Instrument provided with factory-calibration in an ISO 9001-registered laboratory
• Digital thermometer and probe included with instrument purchase, along with a one year warranty

Simple, Automated Testing

• Easy-to-use Windows®-based operational software (included) controls the entire testing process and provides a visual display of stress and strain
• Simple data transfer via USB interface
• Reports and graphs can be printed on any Windows compatible printer

Compact, self-contained unit

• TE-cooled with solid-state Peltier elements. Requires no pressurized coolants (a separate air-water heat exchanger is included) and is environmentally friendly
• An integrated, self-contained bath cools using methanol or ethanol as the bath medium
