Pneumatic Direct/Residual Shear Apparatus,
110/220 VAC 50/60Hz— HM-2560A.3F
The Humboldt HM-2560A Direct/Residual Shear Apparatus utilizes the pneumatic loading concept for applying the vertical load to the sample. In doing so, this self-contained model eliminates the need for cumbersome loading weights used in dead weight-type systems.
The HM-2560A is supplied complete with a 2,000 lbf (10kN) capacity load cell, 1" (25.4mm) horizontal strain transducer, 0.4" (10.2mm) vertical strain transducer and a built-in 4-channel analog data acquisition system. Shearbox assemblies and related accessories are not included and must be ordered separately. Complies with ASTM D3080, AASHTO T236 and BS1377 standards.
Features include:
• Four channels with real-time data acquisition
• Backlit LCD display
• RS232 interface for computer or printer.
• Nonvolatile test data storage and instrument calibration
• Battery-backed real-time clock
• Auto conversation of instrument calibration between English or Imperial units and SI or metric units
• Test setup and selection via keypad
• Automatic triggering of test logging data
• View logged test data via the LCD display
