Soil Grinder prepares samples for Atterberg Limits or grain size testing and other standard lab tests in seconds. Soil grinders are a lab essential to reduce dry soil to smaller particles and break up caked soil into individual grains. Much faster than manually mortar and pestle work. Preserves true grain size for accurate and repeatable test results. Hopper has 1pint (0.473L) capacity and has a manually operated gate control feed rate processed completely to grinding chamber.
Simple to use: load hopper, turn on grinder and control material feed with gate. No. 10 (2.0mm) perforated stainless steel plate included to retain larger particles. Most soils process in under 30 seconds per pint.
Stainless steel contact parts to reduce sample contamination. The reliable direct drive motor and grinding unit mounted on painted steel tripod stand. In-line switch to control motor. Stainless steel lid covers for hopper during operation. Available in 110V/60Hz or 220V/50Hz power supplies.
