Air Meter Calibrators: Digital Gauge for Concrete with Calibration Certificate
Device Introduction
The concrete air meter is a must have device in the construction industry to measure the air content in concrete. Air content in concrete is very important to achieve the desired strength and durability of the final structure. This pressure type device uses a calibration vessel to measure the air content accurately. Calibration is very important to get precise results. Typically made from durable materials like plastic or brass, the concrete air meter consists of a water filled base, a measuring bowl and a gauge to display the air content. This combination of components ensures reliable performance in both field and laboratory.
Key Features and Components
The concrete air meter has several key features that makes it essential for accurate air content measurement in concrete. It consists of a calibration vessel, a meter and a gauge. The calibration vessel, designed to hold 5% of the measuring bowl’s volume is very important for the device’s accuracy. The meter is made from robust plastic or brass to measure the air content and the gauge displays the reading with ±0.1%. Two calibrators can be used to get 10% air reading. The device is designed for durability and ease of use for both field and laboratory applications.
Technical Specifications
The technical specifications of a concrete air meter meets the requirements of the construction industry. The device has a capacity of 1/4 ft³ (0.007 m³) and accuracy of ±0.1%. Made from durable materials like plastic or brass the air meter is built to withstand the harsh conditions of field use. The calibration vessel is designed to hold 5% of the measuring bowl’s volume and is used with a water filled base to get accurate calibration. The gauge is made from plastic or brass to provide clear and precise air content reading. The device complies with industry standards such as ASTM C231 and AASHTO T 152 for its reliability and accuracy.
