COMPRESSION TESTING MACHINE - ANALOG - SINGLE GAUGE
Model Number : TM-042A
Compression Testing Machines conform to the requirements of IS : 516 and other international standards like BS and ASTM. Detailed Specification as follows: Note: We strongly recommend using a servo voltage stabilizer to protect the Compression Testing Machine from overvoltage. The machine incorporates sensitive electronic components. Operating it without a stabilizer may cause serious damage or breakdown, which will not be covered under warranty.”
Available Capacity.
- 1000 kn (100 Ton)
- 1200 kn (120 Ton)
- 1500kn (150 Ton)
- 2000kn (200 Ton)
Compliance with following international standards
IS 516, IS 14858
Salient Features
- Aesthetically designed unit
- The electric pumping unit is fixed with a micro?switch to switch off the motor automatically as the load on the machine approaches the rated capacity.
- The unit is equipped with a 8" dia pressure gauges with maximum red pointer.
- Four column high stiffness and high stability fully welded construction of the loadframe.
Construction Details
The compression testing machine consists of separate pumping unit and loading unit. Detailed descriptions of both the devices are narrated below.
Loading Unit
- The upper platen has got a self aligning action and is attached to a rigid cross head plate.
- The lower platen rests on the jack ram and is positioned with the help of a centering pin.
- Loading is accomplished by upward movement of lower platen.
- A dust cover is provided on the jack to prevent any dust from going into the cylinder.
- A spacer with a centering locating pin is provided to test small specimens.
- The lower and upper platens of the machine are hardened ground and polished.
Pumping Unit
- The pumping unit is a separate unit connected to the jack by means of a high pressure hose pipe.
- A junction box is suitably fixed to connect the motor to the mains through a push button starter.
- Calibrated against N.P.L. Tested Master Gauge or Proving Ring.
- A max red pointer is provided to facilitate taking readings after failure of the specimen.
- The pressure gauge is fixed at an Angle for easy readability.
Scope of supply
- High strength rigid structure (Loading Frame)
- Pumping unit (Oil source cabinet)
- Pressure gauge
- Pair of compression platens
- High pressure hose pipe
Note:
- We strongly recommend using a servo voltage stabilizer to protect the Compression Testing Machine from overvoltage. The machine incorporates sensitive electronic components. Operating it without a stabilizer may cause serious damage or breakdown, which will not be covered under warranty.”
