General description  

These machines, designed for use both in the field and laboratory, can be used to test either cubes or cylinders. All the accessories can be easily fitted to the machine without the removal of upper platen and spherical seat.

 

Frames 

Rigid welded steel construction. Platen hardness: minimum 600 HV30. Ram travel: 50mm. Can be upgraded to test concrete blocks by fitting rectangular platens instead of the original round compression platen.

 

Pilot 3 hydraulic power unit  

High volume – low pressure feature for fast approach ram action and change over to low volume – high pressure for testing. Fitted with special pressure – compensated flow control valve, which automatically allows a precise rate of loading over the complete test.

 

Wizard Display Unit 

5 keys membrane keyboard, LCD display 2x16 characters. Resolution: 1/32.000. Verification in real time of the load rate. Serial port for PC and columns serial printer for Wizard Basic unit (optional)
