Vacuum Stability Test Device

Cutting-Edge Precision
in Propellant Analysis

The Vacuum Stability Test Device, also known as VTS (Vacuum Thermal Stability), offers state-of-the-art propellant stability testing in compliance with NATO Stanag 4556. It features a robust design capable of handling multiple samples, a NEMA 4 control console with PLC, and a precisely heated aluminum block for consistent temperatures. Its digital controls maintain temperature within ±0.1°C, and the system includes sensitive pressure transducers for accurate volume change detection. Data is efficiently captured and exportable to spreadsheets, streamlining analysis and reporting processes.

Features & Benefits

The Advantages of the Vacuum Stability Test Device

Key Features

  • NEMA 4 Industrial Control Console w/ PLC.
  • Electrically heated aluminum dry-bath.
  • Block housing including insulation to minimize temperature gradients.
