he Wallace Ageing Chamber, O14 ages rubber in accordance with international testing standards. In conjunction with the Rapid Plastimeter, it allows the user to determine the Plasticity Retention Index (PRI) of raw natural rubbers. Housed in a robust steel case, the O14 features an aluminium block with four chambers that carry the drawer units and sample dishes. Heater elements are wrapped around the block and high quality insulation inside the case minimises heat loss. An air pump with filter, which provides pre-heated air to the chambers, is located on the rear panel for easy service access. Test samples are placed on round foil dishes, which locate in recesses in the drawer units.
