(Thwing-Albert: West Berlin, NJ) -- Thwing-Albert Instrument Co., manufacturer of advanced testing instrumentation, has redesigned its Vapometer Cup for easier sample setup in the lab. No more individual screws to tighten: The original Vapometer Cup used six knurled-head screws to secure the flange in place. The 68-3000 EZ-Cup design consists of a lightweight aluminum cup and an aluminum-threaded flanged ring with two neoprene gaskets and a Teflon seal that hold the specimen in place. This design was specifically created to eliminate edge leakage and to provide fast secure sealing of the specimen between the gaskets. Specimens are easily loaded and sealed in place by twisting the threaded upper aluminum flange in place.

Thwing-Albert Vapometer Cups comply with the ASTM E96 standard. Samples up to 3 mm (1/8 in.) thick can be tested with this model. The cups are 63.5 mm (2.5 in.) wide and 50.8 mm (2 in.) deep. This model will save operator time and increase productivity by cutting the setup time in half. Serialization has been added to the Vapometer to allow test administrators to easily track results of multiple samples.
