FAQs of Soil Volume Change Meter:


Q: How does the Soil Volume Change Meter measure soil volume changes?

A: The meter utilizes the burette displacement method, allowing precise measurement of water displacement caused by soil volume changes. As the soil sample undergoes consolidation or swelling, the burette indicates the exact volume change with a fine graduation of 0.01 ml.

Q: What are the main benefits of its stainless steel and polycarbonate construction?

A: Stainless steel and polycarbonate provide excellent corrosion resistance and structural integrity, ensuring the instrument remains durable and reliable in high-humidity environments commonly found in soil labs.

Q: Where is this meter typically used, and what tests is it compatible with?

A: This meter is commonly used in soil and civil engineering laboratories. It is compatible with oedometer and swell tests, making it a valuable tool for assessing soil consolidation and expansion properties.

Q: What sample sizes and types can the instrument accommodate?

A: The meter is designed for standard oedometer rings, accommodating samples with a diameter of 38 mm and height of 76 mm, meeting common testing requirements in civil engineering laboratories.

Q: How is the device maintained, and what makes it easy to service?

A: The soil volume change meter is engineered for low maintenance. Its accessible design and use of corrosion-resistant materials make cleaning and servicing simple, without requiring specialized tools or expertise.

Q: What are the advantages of manual operation versus automated systems?

A: Manual operation provides instantaneous response and precise control, eliminates the need for electrical power, and reduces the risk of instrumental errors associated with automation, enhancing reliability and usability in diverse lab settings.

Q: Does the meter require any specific installation or bench type?

A: The instrument is designed for benchtop mounting and does not require any complex installation. Its standard port size and compact construction allow it to be set up quickly in a typical laboratory workspace.
