- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- High strength rigid structure (Loading Frame)
- Pumping unit (Oil source cabinet)
