The movement device is used in order to verify the mechanical resistance of swivel spouts.
It includes the rotary motor used for endurance tests of single lever mixers. A calibrated weight is fixed at the end of the swivel spouts and a hydraulic resistance limits the flow-rate as indicate in the standards. The test cycle consists by subjecting the swivel spouts to a specific number of movements according to the standards, suppling the faucet under test alternately with cold and hot water (CSA standard), only with cold water (EN standard), only with hot water or with hot and cold water at the same time.
The software allows to control: the rotation angle, the angular speed and torque.
