Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the primary application of the ULB-T18 washing apparatus?
The ULB-T18 is primarily used to assess shrinkage in knitted and woven fabrics in accordance with international test methods. It also evaluates fabric stability, color fastness, finish durability, spirality, and pilling resistance to washing.
Which international testing standards does this machine comply with?
It complies with a wide range of international standards, including GB/T8629, GB/T8630, ISO6330/5077, FZ/T70009, BS4923, EN25077/26330, JIS L1909, IWSTM31, ISO19954, and SATRA TM158.
Does the ULB-T18 require ground installation or anchoring?
No, the machine does not need to be fixed to the ground with foot screws. It is designed to operate stably on its own, thanks to a soft link system between the rotating cage and the rack which minimizes vibration and noise.
What is the maximum load capacity and power requirement for the machine?
The machine has a maximum load capacity of 5kg and requires a power supply of AC 380V, 50Hz, with a power consumption of 6500W.
How does the water level measurement system ensure accuracy?
The ULB-T18 utilizes a non-touch capacitance water level meter, which ensures high precision and reliable measurements during the testing cycles.
