Procedure
Simple To Operate
- Pour the prepared material sample into the throwaway paper cup.
- Place the paper cup into the base of the unit by rotating the cup in the O-ring holder until seated completely.
- Insert the throwaway wire stirrer bottom into the cup and attach the top to the drive spindle, set the elapsed timer to “zero” and switch on the unit.
- When gelation occurs, read the time and discard the cup and stirrer.
- The Gel Timer gear motor can remain stalled for short periods without harm.
No Mess! No Tools Required! No Cleanup!
This durable gel timer uses inexpensive wire stirrers and paper cups. No special skills are required. Designed and constructed in the USA to offer long and useful laboratory or shop service.
- A low torque synchronous motor rotates a specially shaped stirrer in the catalyzed resin or elastomer.
- As gelation occurs, drag exceeds torque and the motor stalls.
- Gel time can then be read on the LCD display.
