Triaxial Cell, 1.4 to 3in Diameter Specimens (Brass Valves)
Triaxial Test Cells are essential for determining the compressive strength of soil samples with diameters ranging from 1.4 to 3in (35.6 to 76.2mm). Designed for optimal performance, they work seamlessly with the Master Control Panel and Auxiliary Control Panel, while also being compatible with similar systems. Available models feature either high-quality brass or corrosion-resistant stainless steel valves and fittings, ensuring durability in various testing environments.
Built to withstand heavy loading, Triaxial Test Cells include solid, machined aluminum bases and chambers crafted from heavy-wall clear acrylic or aluminum for enhanced visibility during testing. The 4.75 x 10.75in (121 x 273mm) chamber interior provides ample space for your soil specimens. A polished stainless steel load piston with internally lubricated and sealed U-cup and nylon sleeve bearings ensures low friction and smooth operation. The cells also feature precision zero-volume change ball valves and a maximum operating pressure of 150psi (10.3 bar).
Model Options:
-
Brass Valves and Fittings: Durable and reliable for standard applications.
- Stainless Steel Valves and Fittings: Corrosion-resistant and ideal for use with harsh permeant fluids.
Test Cell Kit (Sold Separately):
A Test Cell Kit is required for testing soil samples and can be purchased on the Triaxial Cell Accessories page. Each kit includes size-specific components such as:
- An anodized aluminum cap and pedestal
- Two porous stones
- Two latex membranes
- Four O-rings
Additionally, a Digital Pore Pressure Gauge with Transducer is recommended for enhanced testing accuracy and is available separately.
