Polytevo Series Charpy Impact Tester
Product Detail
Polytevo Series Charpy Impact Tester (ACS-4020) is a digital Charpy impact tester with a 150° pendulum lift angle, pendulum energy ranges from 1 J to 50 J (one range or all), a touch screen and a built-in micro printer, for impact testing of rigid plastics and other non-metallic materials.

The ACS-4020 is used to determine the impact resistance of rigid plastics, glass-fiber-reinforced plastics, electrical insulating materials, ceramics and cast stone and other non-metallic materials in quality control, research and testing laboratories. A high-precision encoder measures the pendulum angle, a carbon-fiber pendulum rod reduces errors caused by rod mass, and the absorbed energy is shown directly on the display, so there is no dial reading error.

Frequently asked questions
What impact energies are available?
Three optional ranges: 1 / 2 / 4 / 5 J, 7.5 / 15 J and 25 / 50 J. You can choose one range or all ranges; the pendulums and weight sets supplied follow the selection on the quotation.
Does the ACS-4020 also run Izod tests?
No. The ACS-4020 is a Charpy impact tester. Izod tests use the separate ACS-4021 Izod impact tester.
Which test methods does it reference?
Designed with reference to ISO 179 for Charpy impact testing.
What is the pendulum lift angle and impact speed?
150° lift angle; 2.9 m/s for 1–5 J and 3.8 m/s for 7.5–50 J.
What power supply does it need?
AC 220 V ±10%, 50 Hz, 200 W.
