The digital compression testing machine has been designed to meet the need for a simple and economic means to test concrete for its compressive strength.
Loading Unit
The loading unit consists of a four pillar type load frame with adjustable screw to adjust the height of the platen as per the sample size
The Hydraulic jack is fixed to the base. The platen of the machine are hardened ground and polished. The upper platen is provided with self-aligning action. To facilitate testing of various size specimens. Platen is adjustable with adjusting screw. The machine is equipped with Manual pace rate controller. The pace rate of the machine is manually increased or decreased with slow / fast Oil pressure valve.
The Loading capacity is of 1000 KN, Cubes up to 150 mm can be tested.
The pump facilitates rapid approach of the platens for daylight closure and also provides Manual control over the application of load. Maximum load is held and retained for approx. 15 min, unless cancelled, using the panel mounted reset switch.
NOTE : Use of 3 KVA Three Phase Servo controlled stabilizer is essential to protect the machine against voltage fluctuations. Warranty void in case of any damage due to power fluctuations.
