Standards: ASTM D2573-94, AASHTO T202
Consists of 3 models:
S065 Dial Pocket Penetrometer
For the classification of cohesive soft soils in terms of consistency, shear strength and approximate unconfined compression strength.
Direct value read in kgf/cm² on the graduated dial.
Range 0 - 6 kgf/cm² (0-588 kPa). Peak hold feature; zero setting by push button. Plunger Ø 6.35 mm
Weight: 300 g
S066 Dial Pocket Penetrometer
Identical to mod. S065 but with dial range 1-14 kg f/cm² (0-1373 kPa), suitable for medium and hard soil. Plunger Ø 6.35 mm
S068 Geopocket Dial Penetrometer
Designed for a quick determination of the foundation soils, from clay to sandy soils.
It indicates:
- The angle of internal friction (sandy soils)
- The cohesion “c” (clay soils) and the approx.
Unconfined Compressive Strength.
Peak hold feature; zero setting by push button.
Dual scale: 0-6 kgf/cm² (0-588 kPa)
0-11 kgf/cm² (0-1079 kPa)
Complete with 5 plungers Ø 6.4 - 10 - 15 - 20 - 25 mm
Weight: 400 g
