Features

26-WF0302 Front loading oedometer

STANDARDS: BS 1377:5 / ASTM D2435, D3877, D4546 / AASHTO T216 / NF P94 090-1, P94 091 / UNE 103-405, 103-601, 103-602 / CEN-ISO/TS17892-5

General description and specifications

The oedometer consists of a rigid aluminium alloy frame to avoid any distortion under load. The lever arm assembly is supported in precision self-aligning bearings and has three hanger positions: 9:1, 10:1, and 11:1 ratio.

Max. loading using 11:1 beam ratio: 1848 kg corresponding to 9.061MPa (92.40 kgf/cm2) on 20 cm2 specimen (Ø 50.47 mm)
Dimensions: 500x200x750 mm (height less hanger x width x length)
Weight approx.: 21 kg
