Product Code: EKE 125

Standrad: Standards IS:2720 (Part 15), IS:12287, BS:1377, ASTM D2435

The standard outfit comprises of a fixed ring type of consolidometer cell for testing specimens of 60 mm dia x 20 mm thick, but the unit is so designed that specimens of varying sizes from 50 mm dia to 100 mm dia can also be tested. Besides, the same loading unit can be used with floating ring consolidometer cells, which can be supplied at extra cost.
The standard outfit is supplied with a set of weights to give a total pressure of 10 kg/cm² (besides a seating load of 0.05 kg/cm² on the specimen), but an additional set of weights are required to reach the full capacity of 20 kg/cm².
The necessary accessories to perform the permeability test of the 'Varying Head' type can also be provided at extra cost.

Electronic Measurement System

Digital readout reduces the possibility of operator error
Direct reading in mm
Plug-in transducer module system
Facility for connecting readout unit to compatible logging or printing system
Electronic sensing parts are easy to couple with existing ENKAY Models

Electronic measurement of the vertical consolidation of soil specimen, using a displacement transducer connected to a precalibrated readout unit, offers an operator all the advantages of digital display without the errors which can occur when reading conventional dial gauges.
The basic equipment for monitoring a test comprises a readout unit and one transducer module for connection to one consolidation frame. Consolidation is measured by mounting the transducer in the same position as a conventional dial gauge. The movement of the transducer stem acts in exactly the same way as would the dial gauge spindle and is converted into an electrical signal. The signal is then displayed in true engineering units on the readout unit. For three gang unit or six gang unit, 3 or 6 transducer modules are used, but the readout unit is of three or six channel type. The constituents of various models are detailed in the table given on the next page.

Consolidation of clay deposits leads to distress in buildings such as cracks and failures. Consolidation is the reduction of volume of soil due to expulsion of water from its pore space caused by sustained loading
