CPPA C1

Introducing CPPA C1 – Industrial Physics

CPPA C1 is a global CPPA testing standard that provides a freeness of pulp testing method.

The Canadian Pulp & Paper Association (CPPA) has developed a set of pulp and paper testing standards that guide the activities of companies that produce pulp, paper and paperboard.  

What is freeness of pulp testing useful for?

To ensure pulp mix perfection a freeness of pulp tester helps you to understand how quickly water is able to drain from a fiber furnish sample. Freeness of pulp testing is a useful tool for paper making, when you need to make consistently high-quality sheets using knowledge of the surface conditions and swelling of fibers.  

Industrial Physics freeness of pulp testers

So, how can Industrial Physics improve your CPPA C1 freeness of pulp testing? 

Messmer Büchel Schopper-Riegler Freeness Tester 33-29
The Schopper-Riegler Freeness Tester 33-29 will accurately determine how quickly any diluted pulp solutions will drain. Our Schopper Riegler freeness tester 33-29 reliably determines the rate of drainage and expresses it in a Schopper Riegler (SR) value.  

Testing Machines Inc. Canadian Standard Freeness Tester CSFT 33-23
Our Canadian Standard Freeness Tester determines the rate of drainage of a dilute pulp suspension and expresses it in terms of freeness. The rate of drainage is related to the work done on the fiber during beating or refining. We make both a brass wall mounted and stainless-steel standing models of our freeness testers.
