How to Choose Light Fastness Tester: Water-Cooled and Air-Cooled
Choosing between water-cooled and air-cooled light fastness testers depends on precision needs, budget, and application. Water-cooled testers (like GESTER GT-3000) offer superior spectral accuracy and stability for rigorous standards (e.g., automotive, coatings). Air-cooled models (like GESTER GT-D02A-1) provide energy efficiency and easier installation for routine QC. This guide compares cooling methods, features, and applications to help you select the optimal tester.
What is the Use of Air Permeability Tester?
An air permeability tester measures how easily air passes through textiles, nonwovens, and other materials, directly impacting comfort (heat/moisture management) and performance (wind resistance, filtration). This guide explains how digital testers work using pressurized airflow, details step-by-step testing procedures (including nozzle selection), and covers key applications in apparel, medical, automotive, and industrial sectors. Explore compliant standards (ISO 9237, ASTM D737, GB/T 5453) and
