The cell has four take off positions and is fitted with three no volume change valves. Supplied Complete with one set of following accessories for each of 38 mm, 50 mm, 75 mm and 100 mm Dia. specimens. 

Pneumatic Control Panel, 2 lines 

The unit have precision pressure regulators for controlling confining pressure, back pressure Capacity : 10.5 kg/sq cm. with mechanical volume change gauge

AIR COMPRESSORS, 10kg/sq.cm. 

It is a single stage compressor fitted over an air receiver, ON/OFF switch, Pressure gauge & pressure outlet valve are provided as standard. Suitable for operation on 220 volt 50 Hz, single phase supply.

Electronic Data Acquisition 

The four Channel micro controller base signal conditioning & touch panel display unit is suitable to measure Axial Load, pore /back pressure, vertical displacement & volume change (optional) directly indicated in their respective engineering units during Triaxial testing. The system receives the output signal from the sensor i.e Load cell, pore/back pressure sensor attached to the Triaxial Shear Test apparatus. The data of all four channels of Triaxial shear test can be transferred to computer through Ethernet & can be online monitored. The unit also provides the facility of online monitoring of data of all the sensor on Touch Panel Display provided at the front. Broadly the following facilities are incorporated in the system: 

1. Touch Panel is provided to perform various operations such as TARE,PROGRAMMING,START,STOP etc 
2. Independent Taring of each channel -Data transfer interval is programmable (between 10 second to 1 hour) 
3. Automatic data saving on stop bottom there are 25 set result having maximum of 200 data points per set can be stored in the electronic unit. The sample number can be programmed. 
4. Online data & time of test will be stored along with the data.
5. Online (while the test is in progress) data transfer to the computer through Ethernet port.
6. Note - The Electronic unit operates on 220V AC+ 10%,50Hz
