With more than 15 years of civil engineering background, located in the high-tech industry development zone of Xi'an, China, Xi'an Zealchon Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. occupies a 7,500 square meter state-of-the-art facility. We are not just manufacturers; we are researchers and innovators dedicated to the science of material testing.
Our collaboration with esteemed institutions like Chang'an University Highway College and the Air Force Engineering University ensures that our Asphalts Water Content Distillation apparatus meets the most stringent international standards, providing "Xiya" trademarked reliability to global markets.
Water in bitumen is a critical contaminant. Our distillation method (ASTM D95/D244) utilizes a water-immiscible solvent, which co-distills with the water in the sample. As the vapors condense, the water is trapped in a graduated receiver while the solvent returns to the flask. Precision heating control is paramount to prevent asphalt foaming and ensure complete recovery.
The industry is transitioning from manual glass-ware setups to fully automated digital systems. Our R&D focuses on integrated sensor feedback loops that monitor distillation rates in real-time, reducing human error and increasing the safety of lab technicians when handling volatile solvents at high temperatures.
Excess moisture in asphalt leads to stripping, premature cracking, and loss of structural bond. In cold climates, trapped water undergoes freeze-thaw cycles that accelerate pavement failure. Our testers provide the granular data needed for high-performance pavement design and quality control for national highways and airport runways.
Zealchon's production workshop is a model of modern manufacturing excellence. Equipped with CNC lathes, machining centers, milling machines, and precision grinders, we maintain total control over the manufacturing lifecycle of every component. Our integration of Argon Arc welding and high-precision bending machines ensures the structural integrity of our lab equipment.
By leveraging the industrial cluster of Xi'an, we offer unparalleled supply chain resilience. Whether it's a single unit or a bulk OEM order, our "Craftsman Spirit" ensures that every product undergoes rigorous QC before shipment, filling the gaps in international equipment availability with high-performance Chinese engineering.
Our machines are utilized worldwide by government agencies, commercial testing laboratories, and major contractors. We understand the complexities of global procurement:
Our apparatus complies with ASTM, EN, AASHTO, and GB/T standards. We provide comprehensive documentation for customs and local certification needs.
Based in China, our technical support team provides 24/7 digital assistance and comprehensive video tutorials for setup and calibration.
We offer a robust 12-month warranty and partner with global logistics leaders to ensure safe, crate-protected delivery to any port worldwide.
In an era of sustainable infrastructure, Zealchon provides the tools to facilitate the use of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA). Precise water content analysis is the first step in determining the feasibility of recycled materials, helping to reduce the carbon footprint of road construction projects globally.
Our mission is to empower civil engineers with data that ensures the longevity of critical infrastructure, from bridge decks to high-speed rail foundations.
