Cupping Tester
PCE-CPT 20
PCE-CPT 20 is a cupping tester, or coating flexibility tester, used for testing the adhesion, elongation and deformability of paints, lacquers, varnishes, powder coatings and other surface coatings on metal sheets. Used in manufacturing production, paint shop and quality control applications, the PCE-CPT 20 cupping tester aids in determining coating strength, durability and elasticity. A mandatory test in Qualicoat and QIB accredited quality control laboratories, a cupping test, also referred to as an Erichsen test or dent test, uses a spherical punch to deform a sample. This deformation results in a cup-like bulge. When using the PCE-CPT 20 to perform a cupping test in accordance with the ISO 1520 standard, the sample should be placed coating side up so that the 20 mm spherical punch presses against the uncoated underside of the metal sheet. The cupping test is terminated when small cracks and/or detachments are observed on the bulged part of the sample. The PCE-CPT 20 cupping tester's easy-to-read display shows the bulge deformation distances that can be used to determine the coating's flexibility rating.

Anemometers
An anemometer measures wind speed. Indoors, an anemometer measures air speed, air velocity or air flow. The air flow rate in buildings is often measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM) using anemometers to assess the performance of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and equipment.PCE Instruments (PCE) offers a variety of anemometer products to meet the air flow and wind speed measurement needs of professionals in industries such as HVAC, construction, marine and wind power and energy, including hot-wire anemometers, thermo anemometers, pitot tube anemometers, cup anemometers, rotating vane anemometers and impeller anemometers with capture hoods. Plus, hobbyists such as boating, sailing and water sports enthusiasts utilize PCE's accurate and affordable digital handheld anemometer and portable mini anemometer product offerings to evaluate outdoor wind conditions. For meteorological measurements, please see PCE's weather station products.

Sound Level Meters
A sound level meter is a measuring instrument used to assess noise or sound levels by measuring sound pressure. Often referred to as a sound pressure level (SPL) meter, decibel (dB) meter, noise meter or noise dosimeter, asound level meter uses a microphone to capture sound. The sound is then evaluated within the sound level meter and acoustic measurement values are shown on the display of the sound level meter. The most common unit of acoustic measurement for sound is the decibel (dB); however, some sound level meter devices also determine the equivalent continuous sound level (Leq) and other acoustic parameters. With a portable sound level meter, industrial hygiene and workplace safety professionals can measure sound levels in multiple locations to ensure environmental conditions fall within recommended exposure limits (RELs). Some sound level meter devices can be permanently installed for continuous monitoring of sound levels at a work or job site. PCE sound level meter products are lightweight, easy-to-use and manufactured in accordance with the highest industrial standards.

Particle Counters
A particle counter is a useful tool for monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) in clean rooms and workplaces, as a particle counter measures the concentration of particles in the air. While a particle counter won't identify specifically what kinds of dusts or particulates are present in the air, a particle counter will identify how many airborne particles of a certain size are present in the environment. A conclusion is then drawn based on the known materials in the area and the corresponding airborne particle sizes of those materials. Here at PCE, We can offer you a wide range of dust particle analyzers to suit your needs.
