DIL 805A Quenching Dilatometer – Measurement Principle
The DIL 805A/D is used to observe dimensional changes under extreme conditions of controlled heating and cooling. A solid or a hollow sample is inductively heated to a temperature plateau and is then continuously cooled with different (linear or exponential) rates. The phase transformation occurring in the continuous cooling process or in the isothermal plateau (which may also be a multi-step transition) is indicated by the measured change of length. An array of cooling curves represent a continuous or an isothermal TTT diagram (Time-Temperature- Transformation diagram). The beginning and end of the transformation indicate the alloy phase boundaries, e.g. ferrite, carbide, graphite, pearlite, bainite, martensite or other eutectoid phase batches.
Instructions for Registration, Sample Preparation, User Instructions and Precautionary Measures
