Super Air Meter (SAM) is a modified version of a conventional Type B Concrete Air Meter.
Supports the following standards: ASTM C231, AASHTO T152
APE System is designed specifically to pressurize the Super Air Meter (SAM) and requires significantly less time and effort than manually pumping the SAM to each pressure.
When the CAPE Tank is pressurized, the required pressures can be accurately set using the liquid-filled gauges and regulators. After setting the pressures, each inflation chuck (easily distinguishable by the color of the connected hose–gray applies 14.5psi, blue applies 30psi, and yellow applies 45psi) allows the required pressure to be applied to the Super Air Meter from the CAPE System.
The system includes an air tank with a manifold, three inflation chucks, regulators, and liquid-filled pressure gauges.
Features:
- Air chucks easily attach to the air inlet of the SAM
- Accurately and quickly pressurizes SAM to the three required pressures
- 5gal tank capacity is sufficient for several SAM tests
