Application: Thermal Resistance and Water Vapor Resistance Testing
The customer required testing equipment suitable for evaluating the thermal and moisture transfer properties of textile materials.
GESTER Solution: Sweating Guarded Hotplate GT-C98
GESTER recommended the Sweating Guarded Hotplate GT-C98, a textile testing instrument designed to determine the thermal resistance and water vapor resistance of clothing materials.
The instrument simulates aspects of heat and moisture transfer through human skin. By measuring the power required to maintain specified conditions with and without a test specimen, the system determines the specimen’s thermal and evaporative resistance.
This makes the Sweating Guarded Hotplate GT-C98 suitable for laboratories evaluating functional textiles, apparel fabrics, protective clothing materials, and other relevant textile specimens.
- Human‑skin‑simulating guarded hot‑plate design for accurate Rct / Ret measurement
- High‑precision climate chamber + patented wind‑parallel‑stabilization system for stable, repeatable large‑volume lab‑testing
- Built‑in digital intelligence, USB / WIFI data logging, automated test workflows for audit‑ready compliance
- Full‑scope compliance with ISO 11092, ASTM F1868, GB/T 11048, JIS L1096 and Korean KS K ISO 11092 standards
- Complete lifecycle service: factory validation, installation, operator training, calibration guidance and long‑term technical support
