Description

The Oedometers, Front Loading test determines the rate and magnitude of consolidation of a soil specimen restrained laterally and subjected to several successive increments of vertical loads.
The oedometer consists of a rigid aluminum alloy frame to avoid any distortion under load.

The lever arm assembly is supported by precision self-aligning bearings and has three hanger positions for 9:1, 10:1, and 11:1 ratios.

The oedometers fit with linear potentiometric transducers and can be connected to the Data acquisition unit.
The consolidation test can also be automatically performed with the Automatic Computerized oedometer.

Analog configuration is composed of:

  • Oedometer
  • Bench  (see accessories)
  • Consolidation cells (see accessories)
  • Dial gauge (see related products)
  • Weights (see accessories)

Digital configuration is composed by:

  • Oedometer
  • Bench
  • Consolidation cells (see accessories)
  • Displacement transducer (see related products)
  • Data acquisition (see related products)
  • Weights (see accessories)

Main Features

  • Compact and robust design
  • 3 lever arm ratio
  • Screw jack support
  • Same cell for standard and permeability test
  • Possible connection with Data acquisition and processing system
