The Automatic Vicat apparatus is used to determine the setting time and consistency of the cement mortar by using the Vicat method. The penetration depth is measured by a sensor with a 0.1mm resolution.
Along with hardening process development, the penetration depth decreases when it matches some thresholds pre-defined by standards initial and final setting times are measured and recorded.
The entire test is made in a fully automatic cycle and provides precise and repeatable results. The results are then printed on the integrated printer.
The Automatic Vicat apparatus consists of Windows Software and RS232 Cable, Consistency plunger, Initial needle, Final needle, and Mold.
