  • Granting high quality to NCHRP 9-29 (all temperatures including 4 ° C are restored in less than 5 ‘after sample setup)
  • Including water cooling unit for temperature conditioning
  • EmS technology’s main benefits:
  • Improved dynamic performance over servo-pneumatics
  • Stand-alone with no need of compressed air supply
  • Lower maintenance
  • Robust and durable giving a more resilient solution
  • Compact design requiring, in general, a smaller footprint
  • Easy to use
