VICAT NEEDLE APPARATUS-FOR GYPSUM TEST
The Vicat needle apparatus is used to determine the setting time and consistency of cement, gypsum, plaster, or similar materials. It assesses how long it takes for a paste to achieve a certain state of stiffness, which is critical for ensuring material usability and performance. As per IS 2542 (P-1), ASTM C472,EN 196-3,BS 4550 Part 3 Section 3.5
APPARATUS FOR DETERMINATION COAGULATION OF EMULSION - IS-8887, Annex- C
Apparatus for determination of Coagulation of Emulsion at low temperature as per IS-8887 Annex- C, consisting of 2 nos. glass boiling tube (150 X 25mm) with cork with central hole 2 nos. sieve 600 microns, 4 nos. 600ml. beakers and water bath thermostatically controlled for 2 holes.
APPARATUS FOR DETERMINATION OF STORAGE STABILITY - IS 8887, ASTM D6930
The test method for storage stability in IS 8887 involves placing a sample of the bitumen emulsion in a cylindrical container and allowing it to stand undisturbed for a specified period, typically 24 hours. After the settling period, samples are taken from the top and bottom of the container, and the difference in bitumen content between the top and bottom is measured.
WATERBATH FOR SPECIFIC GRAVITY TEST OF CEMENT
The water bath in general will fulfill the requirements of IS:4031 (Part 11), ASTM C188, EN-196 - Method of Physical tests for hydraulic cement (Determination of Density), Supplied without Le-Chatelier Flasks.
PAVER BLOCK FLEXURAL TESTING MACHINE - IS : 15658 (Annex G)
As per IS : 15658 (Annex G). Electro-Mechanical Design, quite and vibration free operation, Automatic Pace rate control @ 6 KN/min. PC connectivity with software available at extra cost.
WET SIEVING APPARATUS - (ASTM C430)
The wet sieving process under ASTM C430 is used to determine the fineness of hydraulic cement and fly ash using the wet sieving method. This test helps quantify the residue of cement particles retained on a specified sieve after washing, providing insights into the particle size distribution of the cement. The retained material on the sieve gives an indication of the fineness level, with finer cements generally associated with better reactivity and early strength development.
FOUR CELL RCPT
The Rapid Chloride Permeability Test (RCPT) evaluates the resistance of concrete to chloride ion penetration, as per ASTM C1202, AASHTO T277, and equivalent standards. This test measures the electrical charge (in coulombs) passed through a concrete sample over 6 hours, reflecting the material's permeability to chloride ions.
THREE CELL RCPT
The Rapid Chloride Permeability Test (RCPT) evaluates the resistance of concrete to chloride ion penetration, as per ASTM C1202, AASHTO T277, and equivalent standards. This test measures the electrical charge (in coulombs) passed through a concrete sample over 6 hours, reflecting the material's permeability to chloride ions.
ACCELERATED CARBONATION CHAMBER
Carbonation Chamber for Accelerated Carbonation test of Concrete. Supplied complete with 30 kg CO2 Cylinder (for within India Supply only) Prism Mould 100mm X 100mm X 200mm, Attachment for Splitting the test specimen, CTM etc. are to be procured at extra cost.
