Product Description
The Paper Beating Degree Tester is used for pulp freeness testing, drainage analysis and refining degree evaluation in pulp and paper laboratories. The equipment operates according to the Schopper-Riegler (SR) method, which determines pulp drainability based on the relationship between fiber refining degree and water drainage speed.
The tester is widely used for pulp refining control, fiber fibrillation analysis and laboratory pulp testing. By measuring the drainage rate and residual water volume of pulp suspension under standardized conditions, the equipment provides accurate and repeatable SR value measurement for papermaking quality evaluation.
The instrument features a manually compressed sealing cone mechanism and precision leveling system to ensure stable sealing performance and reliable testing accuracy. The main structure is manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, while the testing cylinder is made of durable brass for long-term laboratory operation.

-
GB 3332 – Determination of beating degree of pulp
Working Principle
The tester measures pulp drainability according to the Schopper-Riegler method. During testing, water drains through the screen under standardized conditions, and the drainage rate together with residual water volume is used to determine the SR value.
Higher SR values indicate higher refining degree, increased fiber fibrillation and slower drainage performance.
