Frazier Permeability Tester

The PMI Advanced Frazier Permeability Tester is able to calculate fabric resistance (woven, knitted and non woven textile materials) to the passage of air like parachute. The machine provides fast and accurate measurement of gas permeability of solid, cylindrical and sheet samples. Featuring nondestructive testing and fast results, our tester is perfect for both R&D and quality control.
