Constant Head Permeameter
Standards: BS 1377:5, ASTM D2434, AASHTO T215
Used to determine the permeability of granular, gravel and sand soils.
The specimen is formed in an acrylic permeability cell, and water is passed through it from a constant level tank.
The permeability cell has pressure points at different levels which are connected to the manometer tubes fixed on a stand with graduated scale.
Two constant head permeability cells are available: 75 mm and 114 mm diameter.
