For tests according to Standards to be selected among the following:
LTD ISO 13930, RDI-DR ISO 11257, IS 10823 sec. 2
RELEASE 2024! New design with improved features:
General Description
DR 7000 system is designed to operate dynamic test according to three different standards:
-
- ISO 13930 Dynamic test for low-temperature reduction-disintegration – LTD
- ISO 11257 Determination of the low-temperature reduction RDI-DR
- IS 10823 sec. 2 Reduction Degradation
The equipment is based on an electric horizontal oven including two half cylindrical heating elements where the rotating reaction tube is placed. The Dual oven version of the DR 7000 is also available to perform two tests independently at the same time.
The control cabinet provides for temperature, gases flow rates and tube rotation motor control.
High quality mass flow meter and first class components ensure the reliability of results.
The system can be feed by proper premixed reaction gas blends (from bottles stack provided at customer care) or, as option, it can be feed by pure gases and the system will provide for blending on line.
DR 7000 features:
- Fully automatic test control (no operator intervention)
- Touch screen control unit for program and test control
- On-screen trends for process variables (such as temperatures, flow rates etc…)
- Enhanced thermal regulation for a smoother sample temperature control
- Improvement in alarm detection system (including input for external alarm)
- Test report data output on external USB memory stick
- MODBUS data output connection available.
- Remote Monitoring Device for secure connection of our Service Team available (OPTION)
Control Cabinet
Control cabinet includes complete top quality control and monitoring instrumentation. The touch screen interface and the fully automatic test control ensure a friendly operation.
Temperature of sample is driven by digital programmer and controller to obtain best isothermal test condition. A temperature alarm control assures oven safety cutting off power in case of over temperature.
Automatic inlet of Nitrogen and Reaction gas is provided according to the temperature program. The gas flow control is obtained by a digital mass flow controller for reaction gas and for purge N2. Manual gas and motor control is also possible for checking purpose. Data export to PC by USB memory stick, Windows PC software for test report print out and storage included. Optional Remote Monitoring Device for secure connection via internet with our Service Team is available.
Horizontal Oven
The electric oven consists of a steel structure placed on a basement and including the heating elements and insulation material.
The rotation at the proper revolution speed is provided by means of a gear motor placed inside the basement. A dust separator is placed at the end of gas line in order to collect dust and powdered matter coming from rotating tube.
Dual Oven Version
Dual Oven version is also available
To allow simultaneous operation of two ovens running, fully independently, two tests at a time.
The system is provided with independent reacting MIX gas and Nitrogen lines, together with independent temperature control and programming units.
New option: REMOTE MONITORING device now available for DR 7000!
New feature now available for DR 7000 Test System: a REMOTE MONITORING device can be optionally ordered together with main equipment. This device allows a connection over internet from the Test System to the RB Automazione Service team to monitor the status of the equipment for a preliminary evaluation of maintenance level. Our staff will suggest necessary technical activities to restore standard performances of the equipment reducing service costs and downtime for maintenance.
Delivering software updates will be also easy and quick!

Reaction Tube
Reaction tube is manufactured according to ISO Standard dimensions and materials: all parts operating at high temperature are made of heat resistence Stainless Steel to obtain long tube life.
Internal lifters, as required by the standard, are placed inside the tube. A gear wheel on the reaction tube gives the rotation
in connection with the geared motor in the basement.
Two heat diffusers are placed at the end of the tube in order to reduce temperature of outlet gas flow.
