Test Mark Industries CA-0500 Concrete Pressure Meter Kit: Durability Meets Precision
Engineered for reliability and ease of use in the field, the Test Mark CA-0500 Concrete Pressure Meter Kit provides accurate measurements of air content in fresh concrete. This Type B meter is essential for ensuring concrete meets specific durability and workability standards, making it a crucial tool for contractors, testing labs, and transportation authorities.
Key Features for Optimal Performance:
- Rugged Construction: The heat-treated cast aluminum lid and base are built to withstand the harshest job site conditions, ensuring long-term durability and consistent performance.
- User-Friendly Design: The meter’s smooth, sloped lid allows concrete and water to easily slide off, simplifying cleanup and reducing maintenance. Integrated cast-in handles make it easy to transport across the site.
- Stable and Accurate Testing: The bowl has a volume of ¼ cu. ft. (.007m³) and features a base machined perfectly flat, providing a stable, level surface for accurate testing. This bowl can also be used for unit weight and yield measurements.
- Secure, Watertight Seal: The meter utilizes robust, one-piece self-locking stainless steel clamps and a high-quality O-ring seal to guarantee a watertight connection between the lid and base, preventing leaks that could compromise test results.
- Clear and Precise Readings: A large, 4" (10.16 cm) stainless steel gauge provides a direct percentage reading, easily legible to the nearest 0.1%. An included calibration adjustment allows for fine-tuning to maintain accuracy over time.
- Efficient Brass Pump: The all-brass pump features a long stroke and a large, comfortable knob, allowing you to build pressure quickly. It is shielded to protect the piston from dirt, water, and debris.
- Durable Petcocks: Vinyl-coated petcocks feature stainless steel ball valves, offering a comfortable grip and reliable, long-lasting operation.
Complete Testing Kit: The CA-0500 comes in a high-impact, horizontal plastic carrying case with custom die-cut foam padding to hold the meter and all accessories securely.
