Detergent Tester - Tergotometer

The “ Tergotometer” is a versatile laboratory-scale multiple washing machine which simulates the action of eight miniature domestic washing machines within a single bench top instrument allowing eight samples to be processed simultaneously under identical conditions of speed, time and temperature. Any number of variables can be tested in this manner: not only the temperature, agitation speed and test period but also composition of the wash solution, degree of water hardness, pH, bleach, etc. Typical applications include: Evaluation of the effectiveness of soap, detergents, etc. Washability and colour fastness of fabrics and other materials Optimisation of temperature, speed and water hardness parameters Routine screening for dirt removal, brightening, softening, foaming, etc.
