11.5 High temperature testing
What do I need to design a high temperature
testing device?
Basic conguration:
Materials testing machine
with corresponding crosshead travel range. An approximate
required value is a free installation height of about 1000
mm between the connection bolts for installing the high
temperature components and minimum a test area width of
630 mm.
High temperature furnace
with 1-3 heating zones
Control unit
for temperature control of the high temperature furnace
Swivel unit
for swinging the furnace out of the test area. When
performing tests in ambient temperature the high temperature
furnace can be swivelled out of the test area.
High temperature connection system
Attention: When high temperature sample is gripped outside
the high temperature furnace (e.g. with wedge or hydraulic
grips) this HT-connection system is not required.
Option 1: Direct connection to load cell
Option 2: Connection via adapter systems (T-slots
with mounting stud 36 mm or 60 mm)
onto usual specimen grips
Specimen grips
(Function: Holding of the round or at HT-sample)
Option 1: Gripping of the HT-sample outside the
HT-furnace with usual specimen grips
Option 2: Gripping of the HT-sample within the
HT-furnace with special high
temperature specimen grips
(This option is prescribed for standard
specimen according to EN or ASTM)
Options:
High temperature extensometer
with special sensor arms for direct extension measuring at the
sample.
Serial interface
for transferring the temperature values into testXpert

II.
Depending on the number of heating zones of the HT-furnace
(max.3) up to 3 serial RS232 interfaces can be installed into
the control unit of the HT-furnace. Via this serial interface
testXpert

II can read in the temperature values and dene the

control parameters for the Eurotherm-controller. (Attention:
the testXpert

II PC must have the same number of RS232

interfaces installed)
Specimen temperature measuring unit
for exact determination of the temperature at the sample
Option 1: With 3 thermocouples in a distance of 25 mm
attached to the specimen
1x directly on specimen upper area
1x directly on specimen middle area
1x directly on specimen lower area
Option 2: With 3 thermocouples attached to the
specimen and to the pull rods
1x directly on upper pull rod
1x directly on specimen
1x directly on lower pull rod
