LS-RTFO-8 Rolling Thin Film Oven (RTFOT) ASTM D2872, EN 12607-1, AASHTO T240

Advanced Thermal Management

Hybrid PID and Fuzzy Logic control ensures rapid temperature recovery and zero-overshoot stability at the standard 163°C threshold.

Precision Airflow Dynamics

Integrated squirrel-cage fan and calibrated air nozzle deliver a uniform 4000ml/min airflow, critical for repeatable oxidation results.

Heavy-Duty Construction

Electrostatic sprayed steel exterior with a dual-layer heat-resistant observation window for safe, real-time monitoring of test progress.

Mechanical Integrity

Precision-engineered ring carousel with high-stability drive motor eliminates mechanical vibration during the 85-minute aging cycle.

Smart Logic Interface

Integrated time relay and automated heating logic streamline the testing workflow, reducing operator intervention and error.

Laboratory Safety

Non-explosive architecture with multi-layer thermal insulation ensures safe operation in high-throughput pavement laboratories.
