VACUUM DEGASSING OVEN - VDO

PRECISION AIR REMOVAL FOR BINDERS

The   Vacuum   Degassing   Oven   (VDO)   is   engineered   for   rapid   and   reliable removal    of    entrapped    air    in    asphalt    binders,    especially    those    aged using   PAV   procedures.   Built   with   durable   stainless   steel,   an   integrated vacuum   source,   and   a   viewing   panel,   it   delivers   efficient,   user-friendly operation   while   maintaining   a   compact,   energy-saving   footprint   and consistently high-quality performance. The    CRT-VDO    distinguishes    itself    through    a    fully    self-contained    vacuum system,     automatic     two-stage     timing,     and     an     end-of-cycle     alarm     that simplifies     testing     and     minimizes     operator     error.     Its     microprocessor- controlled    vacuum    supply    displays    pressure    directly    in    kPa    absolute, ensuring   compliance   with   applicable   standards.   Unlike   traditional   ovens   that monitor   vacuum   temperature,   it   measures   temperature   at   the   aluminium support   where   asphalt   stabilizes   for   greater   accuracy.   Designed   for   harsh environments      and      long-term      durability,      the      system      provides      fast, dependable    degassing,    aided    by    a    glass    viewing    window    for    real-time observation of sample behavior.

DESCRIPTION

The Vacuum Degassing Oven (VDO) is designed for rapid removal of entrapped air bubbles in asphalt specimens The   CRT-VDO   vacuum   degassing   oven   is   of   the   highest   quality,   made   out   of   a   rugged   stainless-steel   construction.   Featuring   a   built-in   vacuum source   and   glass   viewing   panel,   the   vacuum   degassing   oven   is   easy   to   use   and   maintain.   Additionally,   our   vacuum   degassing   ovens   are manufactured to be both space saving and energy efficient, helping you get the best value for your investment. Vacuum   degassing   oven   CRT-VDO   will   provide   you   with   the   superior   performance   that   you   need   to   get   the   job   done   right.   The   vacuum degassing   oven   will   assist   you   in   degassing   binder   materials   that   have   been   PAV-aged.   This   will   ensure   that   your   binder   samples   are   in   the   best possible condition. We   are   pleased   to   provide   a   vacuum   degassing   oven   that   offers   the   highest   quality   and   durability   of   any   other   on   the   market.   Not   only   can   the CRT-VDO   perform   under   the   harshest   of   environments,   but   it   also   supplies   fast   and   accurate   results.   The   CRT-VDO   is   among   the   safest   vacuum degassing ovens available, meeting stringent industry standards. The   CRT-VDO   offers   a   number   of   features   that   other   vacuum   degassing   ovens   simply   don’t   have.   User-friendly   and   space-saving,   the   CRT-VDO   is the   only   vacuum   degassing   oven   available   on   the   market   that   features   a   completely   self-contained   vacuum   system.   With   automatic,   two-stage timing,   the   VDO   almost   does   the   job   on   its   own.   And   you   will   always   know   when   testing   is   complete   because   of   the   built-in,   end-of-cycle   alarm. Manufactured out of stainless steel, the CRT-VDO offers strength and durability that will ensure ease of maintenance and a long lifespan. The   Vacuum   Degassing   Oven   (VDO)   degasses   through   the   use   of   an   integrated   self-contained   vacuum   oven   and   vacuum   supply   controlled   by   a digital   microprocessor   with   the   vacuum   pressure   indicated   directly   in   kPa   absolute,   as   specified   in   the   Standard   Practice,   providing   the   operator with simplicity of operation and reducing the chance of error in performing the degassing process. The   measurement   method   differs   from   most   vacuum   ovens   in   that   conventional   vacuum   ovens   measure   temperature   of   the   “vacuum”,   which   by definition   a   very   poor   conductor   of   heat.   Instead,   our   device   measures   where   degassed   asphalt   temperature   has   shown   to   stabilise;   namely,   at the aluminium support for the sample tins which is machined from 1⁄4” [6.4mm] thick aluminium. Samples being degassed may be monitored visually through the glass viewing window located on the units cover. KEY FEATURES • Temperature Display: Degrees Celsius Preset Preheat: 170*C • Direct-reading Relative: Pressure Guage mounted to align with external kPa Absolute Scale reads 0 to -30 Hg and 0 to -115 kPa • Digital Controller: Integral Temperature with 2-stage timing and relay control of vacuum system. Alerts operator to load sample. • Vacuum: Adjustment is provided through a 10-turn metering valve located on the removable lid • Process: 10 minute reheat time followed by 30 minutes of heat with vacuum
