Description
This versatile flexural frame has been designed to test either standard concrete beams or other concrete products as the roomy testing place can accommodate large specimens. Furthermore, the possibility of adjusting the vertical clearance up to 400-500 mm, using the appropriate accessory, permits the testing on various products including concrete pipes. It is proposed in two versions: with pressure transducer and with load cell which grant high accuracy for testing low strength specimens. Supplied complete with piston travel limit switch and connection kit to the control console. The frames don’t include the loading bearers that have to be ordered separately. See accessories.
