Compressometer-Extensometer for Elastic Modulus Determination

Compressometer-Extensometer for Elastic Modulus Determination

Compressometer-Extensometer for Elastic Modulus Determination consists of an aluminium and steel structure incorporating a high precision inductive transducer. Three units are generally recommended for axial deformation measurement. They can be easily applied to the specimen by a pair of elastic bands supplied as standard. It has to be connected to a suitable data logger or directly to our Automatic control consoles MCC or Automax Ultimate which can provide cyclic loading and automatic determination of the Modulus of Elasticity.

A data logger as, for example, model 82-P9008, can be used with compression testers for axial deformation measurement when it’s not mandatory to perform loading/unloading cycles, but only loading ramps. In this case, one of the channel of the data logger should be used for the load signal coming from an additional pressure transducer with 3 way connector fitted to the compression tester.

Features

• Ideal for axial deformation measurement:
  • MODULUS OF ELASTICITY
  • UNIAXIAL SECANT ELASTIC MODULUS
• High sensitivity: 0.02 micron.
• Suitable for various sample size: cylinders up to dia. 160 x 320 mm, cubes up to 200 mm, prisms 40 x 40 x 160 mm etc.
• Easy and quick application to the specimen.
• Can be directly connected to our Automatic control consoles AUTOMAX Ultimate or MCC.
