Proctor Penetrometer
- Proctor Penetrometer, Spring Type, 0-40 kg x 1
The instrument consists of a needle attached to a spring loaded
plunger, the stem of which is calibrated to read 0 to 40 kg division.
Long stem is graduated at every 12.5mm to read depth of penetration and
for use with needles of larger areas . The small penetration stem is
also graduation in 12.5mm division and is used with needles of smaller
areas. Needle points one each of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.5 and 6.0
sq Cm. and one tommy pin is Supplied. Complete as above in a wooden
carrying case.
- Proctor Penetrometer, Hydraulic Type, 0-40 kg x 2
This instruments is same as above but the penetration pressure on the
needle is conveyed through a hydraulic system Comprises hydraulic
proctor needle system complete with a pressure gauge fixed at easily
readable angle reading 0-70 kg x 2 kg. A set of needle points consisting
one each 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.5 and 6.0 sq. cm. and a wooden
carrying case.
- Penetrometer, Proving Ring Type. (Vicksberg Penetrometer)
Simple and light instrument for measuring static penetration
resistance. The thrust force is provided directly by the operator who,
by pushing on the T handle, forces the cone into the soil. The
encountered resistance is measured on the fitted load ring. Testing is
only possible in soils with good consistency and for short depths.
Specifications:-
- 3 cones with 30° cone angle and 1 sq. inch sectional area
- 1 KN (100 kgf) load ring
