Asphalt Analyzer YOU (GTR Model) is computer controlled andoperated via touch panel for the extraction and binder determination of bituminous materials within a closed system using non-inflammable solvents. The machine can be factory-provided for either one of the following solvents: Trichloroethylene, Tetrachloroethylene or Dichloromethane (methylene chloride). Washing drum capacity (up to 3.5 kg) is weighed into a sieve drum, placed into the washing chamber and then automatically washed by means of solvents and ultrasonic. Minerals are left in the sieve drum whereas binder, solvents and fillers are washed out and separated in the connected centrifuge. Filler is retained in the centrifuge cup whereas binder and solvent are separated in the connected recovery still by distillation. Solvents are reused. GTR unit is equipped with a second solvent washing chamber allows the device the extraction of asphalt mixtures as stand procedure with the washing chamber or the extraction in the vertical standing unit with the automatic decantation system. The bituminous material will be separated through a continuously mixing and flooding.
