Descripción
El ProTear Mecánico es un equipo básico que ofrece una alternativa económica a la versión electrónica. Este modelo dispone también de cambio rápido de péndulo, pero sin captura electrónica de los resultados. Éstos se obtienen visualmente, por medio de un puntero flotando sobre una escala graduada de 0-100%.
Adheres to:
- ASTM D295, ASTM D752, ASTM D4247, ASTM D1424, ASTM D1922
- TAPPI T414, T496
- ISO 1974, ISO 9290
The Mechanical ProTear is a basic tear tester that offers an economic alternative to the electronic version. This model offers the quick change pendulum configuration without an electronic readout. Test results are obtained by means of a pointer on a graduated scale from 0-100%

Operation
The operation of the ProTear is easy —simply secure the sample in the two clamps, make an initial tear with the attached blade and release the pendulum. The tearing resistance of the material is measured via the transference of the potential energy stored in the raised pendulum to kinetic energy. A portion of this energy is absorbed during the tearing of the sample and is used as a measure of the materials resistance to a continuing tear. The energy required to tear the sample is reported as a percentage of the pendulum capacity or force.
