This is used for determining the ductility of bituminous materials by measuring the elongation before breaking when two ends of a briquette specimen are pulled apart at a speed of 50mm/min + 2.5mm/min at temperature of 27⁰C + 0.5⁰C.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION & SPECIFICATIONS:

The Machine consist of the following :

1.    Stainless steel bath

2.    Temperature controller (Thermostatic/Digital)

3.    Immersion electric heater

4.    Constant speed Pump cum stirrer

5.    Carriage holding up to three standard briquette moulds

6.    Electric motor with gear mechanism

7.    Stainless steel scale and pointer

8.    Control Panel

The apparatus consists of water bath with a thermostatic heater and a circulating pump to maintain uniform water temperature.  One half of the briquette moulds is fixed in a fixed plate in the water bath, the other half of the briquette mould is fixed to a carrier which slides over a rotating  threaded shaft with a clutch. The motor and gears to rotate the shaft are housed in a cabinet fixed above the other end of the both. A pointer fixed to the carrier moves over. a scale graduated from 0-110 cm x 1mm fixed on the bath with “0” (Zero) of the scale towards the fixed plates side. The rotating shaft has 2 speeds of travel for the bracket, 5 cm/min. and 1cm/min. selected by a clutch. Water bath inside is of Stainless steel with insulation and a  water drain. A heater with thermostatic control is fitted. inside the water bath. Control switches for motor, stirrer, heater and indicator lamps are fitted to a control panel located at a convenient place on the water bath. Complete with three briquette moulds and one base plate. Working on 230 Volts, single phase, 50 cycles, AC.

OPTIONAL FITTINGS AT EXTRA COST

1.   Digital Temperature indicator cum controller (in place of Thermostatic control)

2.   Digital display for Elongation

3.   The more advanced model with refrigeration system which ensures better temperature control in tropical conditions. The Machine is mounted on a steel stand with refrigeration unit at its base.

4.   Base Plate for mould.

5.   Mould for elastic recovery.
