Product Description

Asphalt Penetration Tester Penetrometer Apparatus for Bitumen Testing

Product Description

Why do We Use Bitumen Penetration Test?
We use this test to classify bitumen based on penetration value. This helps to choose the proper bitumen in the desired weather conditions for safe road construction.
The soft bitumen (higher penetration) is used in cold weather to avoid cracking. In hot weather, the hard bitumen (lower penetration) is used since it doesn't get soft due to the heat. 

Components for the Penetration Test

This Asphalt Penetrometer Machine consists of a lifting mechanism for adjusting needle alignment, an electromagnetic release mechanism, a light source amplification device, and a LCD display table.

Water bath: it contains at least 10 liters of water at a temperature of 25 °C. The sample is immersed in a depth with more than 100 mm from the top. Moreover, the supported perforated shelf, which is the sample placed on it, should be above 50mm from the bottom of the bath.
Sample container: a small cylindrical dish with a flat bottom which its material is metal or glass. 
Transfer dish or Tray: It helps in keeping the container immersed in the water bath.
Penetration needle: stainless steel needle which is cylindrical and high polished
Thermometer: it shows the temperature in the range of 0-44 °C.

Performance feature

1. The digital display asphalt penetration tester is equipped with a hand wheel, which can be used for coarse tuning or fine tuning of the needle, and is equipped with a light source to enlarge the observation.
2. The drop time of the needle can be switched by a time relay and is controlled by an electromagnetic release mechanism.
3. When operating, just press the "insert needle" key to complete the insertion procedure. Convenient and fast.
4. The needle penetration value is displayed by LCD, which is visualized and correct.
