Product Code: T210A

Category: SOIL

Sub-Category: CONSOLIDATION

• The Automatic Consolidation Device is designed for fully automated execution of one-dimensional consolidation and swell tests in accordance with international standards. The system ensures high accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency in soil compressibility evaluation.
• Combines servo-controlled loading with real-time data acquisition to perform incremental consolidation, constant rate of strain, swelling, CHG, and optional unconfined compression tests without manual intervention.
• Available in 10 kN, 20 kN, and 50 kN configurations, offering flexibility for a broad range of specimen stiffness and expected load profiles.
• Utilizes closed-loop PID control and precision transducers for reliable application and monitoring of axial displacement and load.
• Features compact, bench-top design with integrated actuators and modular electronics, eliminating the need for dead weights or hydraulic systems.
• Supports networked operation with USB connectivity for centralized control, and includes touchscreen interface for standalone use.
• Compatible with Windows-based software for automated test management, result plotting, and report generation in multiple international formats.
• Includes test cells for 50 mm diameter samples as standard, with options for alternative specimen sizes and back-pressure saturation.
