STANDARDS: ASTM D5731 | ISRM
MAIN FEATURES
High precision electric load cell.
Capacity 56 kN.
Core specimens up to 4″ (101.6 mm).
Easy reading of the distance between the conical
points thanks to a graduated scale.
Used to determine the strength values of a rock specimen both in
the field and in the laboratory.
It consists of a load frame for applying loads, on which a manual
hydraulic jack is mounted.
The applied load is measured by a high precision electric load cell
with a digital display unit range 0-56 kN proving:
65.000 divisions 0.001 kN resolution
Linearity: 0.05% Hysteresis: 0.03%
Repeatability: 0.02%
The strength index (IS) is got by the formula P : D2 where P is
the strength and D the space between the two conical points.
Supplied complete with wooden carrying case, goggles, accessories.
Dimensions: 400x530x720 mm Weight: 25 kg approx.
