FAQ
What is the key feature of the RO-TAP E sieve shakers?
The RO-TAP E shakers provide a two-dimensional motion - a horizontal circular motion combined with a vertical tapping motion. This allows particles to stratify and pass through the appropriate sieve openings for accurate particle size analysis.
What sieve sizes can the RO-TAP E 8-inch model accommodate?
The 8-inch RO-TAP E model can hold up to 6 full height (2 inch deep) 8-inch diameter sieves or 13 half height (1 inch deep) 8-inch sieves.
What sieve sizes can the RO-TAP E 12-inch model accommodate?
The 12-inch RO-TAP E model can accommodate up to 6 full height (2 inch deep) 12-inch diameter sieves or 13 half height (1 inch deep) 12-inch sieves.
What particle size range can the 8-inch RO-TAP E test?
The 8-inch RO-TAP E can test particles from 2 inches down to 635 mesh (20 microns).
What particle size range can the 12-inch RO-TAP E test?
The 12-inch RO-TAP E can test particles from 4 inches down to 500 mesh (25 microns).
What are the oscillation and tapping rates?
The RO-TAP E models operate at 278 ± 10 oscillations per minute and provide 150 ± 10 taps per minute.
Do the RO-TAP E models have timers?
Yes, the RO-TAP E shakers come with built-in digital timers with a 99 minute maximum setting.
What are the power requirements?
A8: The standard RO-TAP E models require 115V/60Hz power supply. 230V/50Hz models are also available.
What motor is used in the RO-TAP E?
The RO-TAP E shakers use a powerful 1/4 HP motor.
What standards do the RO-TAP E models conform to?
The RO-TAP E sieve shakers conform to ASTM C136, C702, D6913 and other international sieve analysis standards.
