Used to determine the consistency of a bituminous sample under fixed conditions of load, time and temperature. The penetration is expressed in distance of tenths of millimeters vertically penetrated by a standard needle.

The standard penetrometer is ruggedly constructed, with a base table in light alloy with levelling screws, plated vertical rod, micrometric vertical adjustment device. The slider is brass made with free fall. The dial, division 0,1 mm. The penetrometer is supplied with stop and release push button, automatic zero set, micrometer adjustment, set of weights 50 and 100 g. penetration needle, two sample cups dia. 55×35 mm and 70×45 mm.

Dimensions: 220x170x410 mm.

Weight: 11 Kg.

Manual Penetrometer

Manual Penetrometer, which is used to determine consistency for bitumen samples under constant temperature, time and load, has dimensions of 220x170x410 mm and a weight of 11 kilograms. Manual Penetrometer, which is produced as a very robust device with a coated vertical rod, light alloy level screws and base plate, is made using sliding brass.

This device has a stop and release button and can also be adjusted micrometrically. This device, which has a micrometer adjustment feature as well as an automatic zeroing set, has two weights of 50 and 100 grams, two sample cups 55×35 mm and 70×45 mm, and consists of a needle. There is a dial gauge scaled to 0.1 mm.

What Does a Manual Penetrometer Do?

Penetrometer is used to measure the hardness of a particular soil and this device measures the compaction of the soil. The Manual Penetrometer, which has the ability to show the depth of the ground with graduated markings, has a manual system.
