DESCRIPTION:
The dual stage power pack which controlled by the control system is designed to supply the
required oil pressure to the frame.
The Semi-automatic models come with a complete
valve controlled test cycle, There are two valves on
the oil tank. One valve is the pacing rate control
valve. It is used for controlling the pacing rate.
When you push it forward, the pacing rate increases
fast.

To make fine-tuning, the top valve is turned

clockwise to increase the load in a small amount or
counter-clockwise direction to decrease.

The Semi-automatic compression machines consist

of their main parts: Frame, power pack with valve
control and digital readout unit.

The valve control power pack is designed to supply

the required oil pressure to the frame.
The very silent power pack can load specimens
between 1KN/sec to 20KN/sec. On all power packs,
the maximum pressure valve is used to avoid
machine overloading.

The very silent power pack can load specimens between 1KN/sec to 20KN/sec. On the
dual-stage pump, a high delivery low-pressure pump is used for rapid approach and delivery
high-pressure radial piston pump is used for test execution. On all power packs, the maximum
pressure valve is used to avoid machine overloading.

The Servo controlled hydraulic pack is an advanced system

that can very accurately control the speed loading rate.

The user has full control of the load cycle before or during the
test. In a way that you can set the machine preplanned cycle or
change speed, even hold the load during the test cycle for a
period of time.

The servo-controlled hydraulic system comes complete with a

digital touch screen control system and data acquisition that
can send the result either by blue tooth, email, printout or
save.

CN 0275 is used for splitting tensile tests on cylindrical specimens. CN 0277
Splitting Tensile Test Device for
CN 0276 is used for splitting tensile tests on concrete block pavers Cubes, 150x150 mm

DESCRIPTION:
The Flexural test equipment is used to test flexural strength MAIN FEATURES:
of concrete beams, kerbs, interlocking pavers, flagstones • 2 different designs
and blocks of different sizes. • 4 different capacities
• Safety limit switch for 100 or 120
The flexural test equipment ranges from 100 kN to 300 kN mm piston stroke
capacity, it has been designed for reliable and consistent • High accuracy load measurement
testing due to its heavy steel fabrication and design. with strain gauge load cells
• Accept a wide range of assemblies
The flexural test equipment comes in two types of frames, to satisfy all tests
the U type and the C type frame. Both very rigid design is • Can be connected to compression
ideal either for a conventional flexural test or for more machine or power pack
sophisticated tests such as deformability and ductility index.

The Flexural machines feature the complete automatic test cycle with a closed-loop digital readout.
Once the specimen parameter has been introduced, it is sufficient to press the START button to
complete the test.

The Flexural Frame can be connected to any Geotechnical compression machine as a second frame or
can be used individually with any power pack as an independent Flexural Machine.

Flexural test assemblies should be ordered separately.

• Bearers for flexure test on flagstones and kerbs to EN 1339 and 1340. Consist of two lower rollers of
20 mm dia. x 600 mm length and upper load point of 40 mm dia with ball seating

• Bearers for flexural test on concrete blocks Consist of two lower rollers and one upper roller of 20 mm
dia. x 600 mm length

• Bearers for flexural test on concrete beams of 100x100x400-500 mm, 150x150x600-750 mm. Consist
of two upper rollers and two lower rollers of 40 dia and 160 mm length. Complying to EN
12390-5 and ASTM C78.

The distance of the lower bearers can be adjusted between 100mm and 800mm. The distance between
upper bearers can be set to 100mm or 150 mm.

During the 3 point Flexural testing one of the bearers can be removed and the other placed in the
centre.
Max. Vertical Clearance 425 mm (without accessories)
Max. Horizontal Clearance 650 mm
Max. Clearance Between Lower Rollers 900 mm
