Shelby Tube Permeameter, 3in
The Shelby Tube Permeameter is designed for performing constant or falling head hydraulic conductivity tests on undisturbed soil samples. It accommodates Shelby sampling tubes with diameters of 2, 2.5, or 3 inches (50.8, 63.5, or 76.2mm).
Constructed with corrosion-resistant, anodized aluminum, the permeameter features a durable top and base secured by three threaded tie rods with clamping nuts, ensuring the Shelby tube remains vertical during testing. It supports sample heights between 2 inches (51mm) and 6 inches (152mm) for all compatible tube diameters. The concave top cap includes a bleed-off valve for easy deairing of the soil sample, ensuring accurate results.
Each permeameter set includes an aluminum top and base, inlet and outlet valves, a bleed-off valve, two porous stones, O-rings, three threaded tie rods with clamping nuts, and 10 feet (3.0m) of 1/4-inch ID clear tubing. It is ideal for permeability testing of undisturbed soil samples in 3-inch (76mm) diameter Shelby tubes.
