Laboratory Vane Tester which provides a wide measuring range of the shear stress.
Features:
- Fully automatic controlled laboratory vane tester including complete data acquisition and evaluation system
- Determination of the shear strength of un-drained soft to stiff soils
- Test runs are completely reproducible
- Electronic control system with digital display and foil-keyboard for semi-automatic use by integrated control panel or fully automatic by PC with operating system Windows, control and evaluating software C 2090 W/32
- Highly precise stepless and load-independent control of the shear rate
- Automatic recording of the shear resistance (torque) against the displacement (angle)
- Unlimited shear displacement and automatic speed alternation according to default parameter (angle, failure or time), in order to observe the influence of the pore water pressure on drained and un-drained samples
- Input of the vane size leads to automatic shear force conversion
- Continuous on screen observation of the shear resistance in a force-displacement diagram
- Complete data evaluation and print out with diagram on every commercial printer
- All standard vanes are applicable (special sizes available)
