Construction Details :
- It is a motor driven mechanical compactor useful for compaction in to 4" & 6” dia Marshal moulds.
- It is fitted with compaction rammer weighing 4.54 kg having 50.8 mm diameter face and another compaction rammer weighing 10.2 kg having 50.8 mm diameter face.
- It is raised to a height of (457.2 ± 1.5) mm (18") and allowed to have free fall (drop) on test specimen.
- Tubular steel frame housing the driving mechanism of the compaction rammer.
- The rammer assembly is provided with a ratchet and pawl arrangement to lift it from the top of the test sample.
- When the rammer reaches the required height, the pawl releases the rammer, which falls freely on test specimen.
- The release mechanism is connected by an arm moving up and down - which is connected to a reduction gear coupled to the motor through another arm.
- An automatic Digital blow counter fitted to the compactor is used to set the number of blows.
