ZL-2401 Geosynthetic Vertical Permeameter

The geotextile vertical permeability testing instrument is a horizontal constant-head testing instrument designed and manufactured in accordance with the latest national standard GB/T15789-2005 and the newly released “Highway Engineering Geotextile Test Procedures” by the Ministry of Transport (JTG E50-2006). It is suitable for conducting vertical permeability tests on various geotextiles and composite woven fabrics with permeability properties under a constant water head. The national computer software copyright certificate number for the geotextile vertical permeability tester: Soft Copyright Registration No. 2452896.

Principle Overview: The flow velocity (in mm/s) of water flowing perpendicularly to the surface of the geotextile under a unit hydraulic gradient.

Instrument feature:
 1.This machine is equipped with a 7.8-inch high-definition touch color screen system and a Chinese menu operation interface.

 2.The test fixture is made of high-quality aluminum alloy, which is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and elegant.

 3.A transparent organic glass test chamber is used to prevent water splashes and dust from entering.

 4.The American DuPont powder and electrostatic painting process is adopted, which is cured at a high temperature of 200°C and does not fade.

 5.Sample clamping method: horizontal flow, sample placed in water, and sample is held by a force rod.

 6.The amount of water permeability and collection volume is measured using a graduated cylinder and displayed with high-definition scales.

 7.The entire machine has no exposed plastic hoses. A zero-pipe experimental chamber is used to effectively prevent bubble formation and ensure accurate data.

 8.The digital setting of water head difference, automatic positioning, and high precision.
