MANUAL VICAT NEEDLE APPARATUS
Standards: EN 196-3, ASTM C 187, ASTM C 191, AASHTO T 129 / T 131, BS 4550, AFNOR P 15 / P 414
GENERAL DESCRIPTION This device enables to determine the initial and final setting times in cements. It also has a consistency probe to determine the quantity of water necessary to produce a mortar with a standard consistency.
The device includes a frame supporting a 300g consistency plunger and 10 mm diameter. At the end of the plunger the initial and final setting needle or the consistency probe are mounted.
The penetration depth is measured by means of an indicator which moves along a scale graduated in millimeters.
With the substitution of the needle and mould, the device is adapted to the different standards.

SOLUTION CALORIMETER
Standards: EN-196-8, BS 4550, BS 1370 and ASTM C186
This device is used for the determination of heat quantity, in calories/gram, during the process of cement hydration in isothermal conditions.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The device is composed by a Dewar flask housed in a thermally insulated case and protected in a wooden case.
The Dewar flask can easily be removed from the wooden container to be cleaned.
The device is completed by an electric constant speed, a Beckman thermometer and a filling funnel for the cement.
This Cement testing equipment is designed for materials testing
