Vane Shear Apparatus Laboratory Type (Motorised )

Model HV-EXP191
Laboratory Type, IS : 2720 (XXX) This Is for determining theshear strength of both remoulded and undisturbed soils. IIconsists of a torque head adjustable in height to enable thevane to be lowered into the specimen.Rotation of the vane is by means of a hand wheel whichoperates a worm gear arrangement s turning the upper end ofa calibrated torsion spring. The vane shaft is attachedthrough the hollow upper shaft to a resettable pointer whichIndicates the angle of torque on dial graduated In degrees.The dial reading multiplied by spring factor gives the torque. Acontainer Is also supplied. complete with a set of springs. oneach 01 approx. 2 kg. cm. 4 kg. cm ; 6 kg. and 8 kg. Cm. Rates 01 rotation is 1/ 60r.p.m. Suitable for operation on 230 volts 50 cycles single phaseA.C. Supply.&nbsp
