The accelerated carbonation reactor, developed by TFB Diagnostics Systems Ltd., allows for the assessment of products for the protection and repair of concrete structures according to the EN 13295 and tests according to CEN/TS 12390-12:2010 can be performed. Furthermore it gives a simple and precise determination of the carbonation resistance of mortar or concrete mixes according to the Swiss standard SIA 262/1, Annex I (CO2: 4.0 ± 0.1%).
