TheThermo Fisher Scientific Horizon Fogging Tester System (FTS) consistently delivers reliable results for your requirements when you need to test raw materials for volatile organic compound (SVOC) outgassing, regardless of the regulations you need to comply with. Whether testing leather, textiles, vinyl or plastics, your results are always consistent and accurate.
Reliability:
Robust assemblies ensure reliable temperature stability over many years of operation and testing.
Consistency:
The test conditions remain constant so that reproducible results are always obtained over several test series. This ensures process replication at all times and compliance with DIN, ISO and SAE standards.
With only three steps you can configure the most suitable system for your application:
1) Choose the thermostat for your FTS
2) Choose the cooling system for the cooling plates
3) Choose the parts for your test method (gravimetric or photometric)
1 - Thermostat
Choose the thermostat which is most suitable to your application's needs to test according DIN, ISO and SAE standards.

| Dimensions (H x W x D) | 62x24x49 cm | 64x22x42 cm | 75x28x49 cm | |
| Complies with: | CE, WEEE, RoHS | |||
| Remarks: | If you need a cost-effective chiller with low foot-print this unit offers a smart alternative. | This thermostat operated in a wide temperature range and can be used for other external applications and with its internal bath for temperature control of smaller objects. | This unit offer a wider temperature range and more cooling capacity than the SC100-A10. The PC200 head in combination with the PC-FTS makes operation much easier as both units are operated identically. | |
3 - Test method
Choose the starting kit for either the gravimetric or the reflectometric method. All parts are also available individually.
| Accessory kit: Gravimetric method | Accessory kit: Reflektometric method | |||
| Here the mass of the material deposited on the films is determined gravimetrically by weighing. | A refractometer is used to determine the amount of material that has deposited on the glass plates during the test. | |||
| Set with standard glass - 6 round glass plates - Round foils (1 pck = 200 pcs) | Set with borosilicate glass* - 6 round borosilicate glass plates - Round foils (1 pck = 200 pcs) | Set with standard glas - 6 square glass plates - Filter paper (1 Pck = 100 pcs) | Set with borosilicate glass* - 6 square borosilicate glass plates - Filter paper(1 Pck = 100 pcs) | |
Plus in all set included: | ||||
* = Your advantage with borosilicate glass plates vs. standard glass plates: | ||||
