Permeability cells

Main Features

The complete test system includes:

  • Triaxial cell with accessories for 38, 50, 70 or 100 mm specimens
  • Pressure control panel, three pressure lines
  • Bladder type air/water pressure system
  • De-airing water system and accessories

Description

The permeability cells are available with brass valves and related accessories for normal use and with stainless steel valves for use with contaminated soils. The toxic interface chamber 28-WF0194/3 is recommended to be fit between control panel and permeability cells to avoid toxic permeants from entering control panel. This also prevents contact of air with the permeant, thus no toxic or corrosive vapours can escape into the laboratory.

Technical Specs

  • Dimensions: 300×355 mm (h) approx.
  • Weight approx.: 5 kg
    • Typical configuration of a system for permeability test with permeability cells for normal or contaminated soil samples 100 mm dia.
