Pneumatic Consolidation Load Frames – Precision and Efficiency for Soil Testing Labs

Karol-Warner’s Pneumatic Consolidation Load Frames with exclusive CONBEL™ design offer advanced pneumatic loading to meet the demanding needs of soil testing laboratories. These frames provide precise application and maintenance of loads for accurate consolidation testing, including low-load functionality for small confining loads. A compact design saves bench space, while applied loads are displayed digitally and controlled via precision pressure regulators and transducers with ±0.1% linearity.

Key Features:

• Automatic and accurate pneumatic load application for precise testing.
• Low-load capability for small confining loads.
• Compact footprint to maximize bench space.
• Durable construction with a 1in (25.4mm) thick aluminum platform, adjustable centering pads, and stainless steel vertical rods for stability.

Specifications:

• Load Capacity: 64tsf (6,128.7kPa)
• Compressed Air Requirement: Minimum 188psi (13bar)
• Electrical Requirements: 90-264V, 50/60Hz
• Product Dimensions: 12 x 14.5 x 21in (305 x 368 x 533mm), WxDxH

Included Items:

• Pneumatic Consolidation Load Frame (available in 16tsf, 32tsf, or 64tsf capacities)
• Loading Ball
