About Penetrometer Apparatus

Penetrometer Apparatus

Fully Automatic Universal Penetrometer

It may be defined as the instrument reaches the test start point automatically, and it is supplied with an integrated led lamp the vertical movement is performed by a high precision stepper motor and measured by a contactless displacement transducer. The device also has the possibility to recall the vertical position for repeated tests. The test should be performed placing the penetration cup in thermostatically controlled water, using a suitable device as our water bath with thermoregulatory and immersed probe The apparatus is supplied complete with outfit for penetration of bituminous materials (needle, needle holder, 50 g weight, 150 g additional weight and 6 containers), centering guide, anodized aluminum base plate with spirit level and adjustable leveling feet. USB flash drive for saving data and test reports included.

Included accessoriespenetration needle, sample container, transfer dish, and thermometerprovide everything needed for a straightforward bitumen testing workflow, all supported by optional calibration certification.

FAQs of Penetrometer Apparatus:

Q: How does the Penetrometer Apparatus measure bitumen penetration?

A: The apparatus measures bitumen penetration by automatically dropping a 50 g needle into the bitumen sample, controlled by a digital timer up to 60 seconds. The depth traveled is displayed digitally, with an accuracy of 0.01 mm, reflecting the softness or hardness of the material tested.

Q: What standards does this Penetrometer Apparatus comply with?

A: This instrument complies with IS:1203, ASTM D5, and EN 1426 standards, ensuring acceptable and valid bitumen test results for industry, laboratory, and regulatory applications.

Q: When should the calibration certificate be requested for this apparatus?

A: The Penetrometer comes factory calibrated. For audits or regulatory compliance, a calibration certificate can be optionally requested at the time of purchase or as required by your internal quality procedures.

Q: Where can this Penetrometer Apparatus be used?

A: It is designed for laboratory use only and is ideal for material testing facilities, research institutions, quality control labs, or any site requiring precise bitumen testing under controlled conditions.

Q: What is the process for preparing a sample and conducting a test?

A: The process involves placing the bitumen sample in the standardized brass cup, mounting the penetration needle, selecting appropriate settings via the keypad, and initiating the test. The integrated timer and digital display facilitate real-time, accurate reading of the needles penetration depth.

Q: How does the apparatus improve safety during operation?

A: It is equipped with over-travel protection and an automatic cut-off feature, ensuring safe handling by preventing the needle from exceeding its intended stroke and stopping the operation instantly as needed.

Q: What are the benefits of using this Penetrometer Apparatus for bitumen testing?

A: Key benefits include high measurement accuracy (0.01 mm), compliance with global standards, real-time digital results, easy sample observation due to integrated lighting, and reliable safety features. These attributes enable laboratories to perform consistent, standardized quality assessments of bituminous materials.
