This is a hand operated instrument for determining the unconfined compression strength of soil specimens of diameter ranging from 38 mm to 100 mm. Load on the sample is applied gradually by a hand operated load frame and loads are measured on a sensitive proving ring attached to the load frame. Unconfined Compression Tester Proving Ring Type (Hand Operated).
Salient Features

• Specifications: Comprises of a hand operated load frame, cap. 5000 kgf with screw jack for loading, handle and strain dial gauge bracket, adaptor for proving ring, conical seats and male/female coning tools for 38 mm dia samples. Supplied without proving ring, dial gauge.

This is similar to above with the added advantage of a motorised drive permitting a choice of three constant rates of stain. Specifications: comprises a screw operated load frame cap 5000 kg. with a gear box and motor drive giving 1.25, 1.5, 2.5 mm/min. rates of strain, a pair of cone seating, adaptor for proving ring and stain dial gauge bracket. Supplied with one pair of male/female coning tools for 38 mm dia samples but without proving ring and dial gauge. Suitable for operation on 230 volts, single phase A. C. Supply.
Salient Features

• Accessories: Coning tools in pairs (male & female) for samples having diameter 38 mm, 50 mm, 75 mm & 100 mm.
• - Also available with only one rate of train 1.25 mm/min.
• - Also available with the following rates of strains: 1.5mm/min, 2.0 mm/min and 3.0 mm/min.
