High-temperature extensometer 3648 series

capacitive

This model was designed for applications that require ultra-low contact force when using split type materials testing furnaces or induction heaters. It features very low specimen contact force and includes a slide bracket for mounting. Liquid cooling allows use to 1200°C (2200°F) standard or 1600°C (2900°F) with the high temperature option. Epsilon extensometers are COMPATIBLE WITH VIRTUALLY EVERY BRAND OF TEST EQUIPMENT and can be supplied with the correct connector to plug in directly. Operation of these, and all of Epsilon’s extensometers, are VERIFIED TO APPLICABLE STANDARDS SUCH AS ASTM E83 OR ISO 9513 using in-house calibration systems that are calibrated with Epsilon’s laser interferometer system. WITH EPSILON’S 20+ YEAR HISTORY OF SERVICE to the materials testing community, you know we will be there to stand behind our products when your critical application requires it. These extensometers use a high temperature capacitive sensor in combination with an innovative design to achieve high accuracy strain measurements in low measuring ranges. They mount on a slide bracket (included) that can attach to the load frame of your test system; optional load frame mounting brackets are available. The standard temperature version (to 1200 °C) is supplied with high purity alumina rods. The high temperature option is furnished with alpha grade silicon carbide rods. Rods are made to order to the length required for your furnace. These units are made to order in many different gauge lengths and measuring ranges.
