Asphalt Testing Equipment
ELE international manufactures a comprehensive range of field and laboratory asphalt testing equipment to ensure compliance with quality and performance specifications. Traditional methods of binder content analysis involved the use of solvents, but due to environmental concerns ELE has developed an Asphalt Binder Analyser which uses an ignition method and thereby avoids the use of harmful solvents. Loss on heating and a rolling thin-film oven are used for testing bitumen, flash and fire point are measured with the Cleveland Flash Cup Apparatus, and the Ring and Ball test enables the measurement of the softening point.
