SR-10 (Manual)

Manual Freeness Tester (Schopper-Riegler)

The SR-10 Manual Freeness Tester determines the degree of refining and drainage speed of paper fibres by the Schopper-Riegler method, with robust design and easy operation and cleaning. Manual activation of the release and closing system delivers direct SR-degree readings from the graduated glass.

Manual Freeness Tester (Schopper-Riegler Method)

Manual equipment for determining the degree of refining and the speed of drainage of paper fibres by the “Schopper-Riegler” method. The Schopper-Riegler test quickly provides an idea of the degree of refining related to the drainage rate of a dilute pulp suspension — drainage speed is related to surface conditions and fibre dilation, and is a useful indicator of the mechanical treatment (refining) applied to cellulose pulp.

Key Features

  • Robust design.
  • Ease of operation and cleaning.
  • Manual activation of the release and closing system.
  • Funnel with 2 holes: one bottom, one side.
  • Direct reading of the degree of refinement from the graduated glass.
  • 1000ml cylinder capacity.
  • Includes 2 acrylic glass measuring cylinders.

Applications

Applicable to all types of paper pulp in aqueous suspension (except extremely short fibre pulps), essential for pulp mills assessing refining progress. Meets BS 6035/1, ISO 5267/1, NF Q 50-003 and SCAN C 19/M3.
