Digital Point Load Test Apparatus with Hydraulic Bottle Jack

ASTM D5731, ISRM

The UTR-0540 Digital Point Load Test Apparatus is used for determining the strength values of a rock specimen, both in the field and in the laboratory.

Consists of a 70 kN capacity load frame with an upper and lower conical platens, a digital readout unit, pressure transducer and a hydraulic loading cylinder.

A ruler assembled on the frame allows the direct measurement of the distance between the conical platens before and after the test.

The compression load is measured by a pressure transducer connected to an advanced digital easily transportable wooden case.

UTR-0544 Loading platens for compression and indirect/splitting tensile tests on rock specimens should be ordered separately.

Supplied complete with face protective goggles and carriage box. Loading platens set for compression and indirect/splitting tensile strength test should be ordered separately.
