B091M Pressure Ageing Vessel (PAV)

The unit has been developed to simulate the accelerated ageing of bitumen and bituminous binders after 5 to 10 years. The sample is exposed to high pressure and temperature for 20 hours, to simulate the effect of a long time oxidative ageing by verifying the penetration and softening point characteristics. PAV features include: 3 opertating modes: Fully Automatic, Semi-Automatic and Manual. Integrated 7' colour touch screen controller Fast pre-heating system selectable up to 80°C in order to reduce the conditioning time. Timer for setting time and date to start the machine at the desired time. CE, PED and ASME certification. Power supply: 230V 1Ph 50Hz 10A Dimensions: 450x650x500 mm. Weight: 80 kg approx. Test Well Build Well! James Instruments Inc. specialises in Non-Destructive Testing equipment for concrete and other construction materials. Central to the improvement of the construction infrastructure are tools that evaluate the condition of existing construction. Destructive and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques are applied. Destructive tests can provide direct information, but are relatively expensive, time-consuming and cause damage to the structure. Destructive test results often cannot be evaluated using statistical approaches because the number of locations in the structure that can be tested without damage to the structure is limited. On the other hand, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques are relatively inexpensive to apply, and they can detect, localize, and characterize flaws and damage in concrete, wood and other construction material structures without leaving any undesirable discontinuities or causing damage to concrete members. James Instruments Inc. is the leading manufacturer of non-destructive test equipment for construction materials. Specifically we design, manufacture and sell the most advanced equipment to test concrete, ceramic, wood, masonry, mortar, gypsum and other coarse grained materials. We supply the instruments that: measure strength, both compressive and tensile, locate rebar and other objects in concrete and masonry, determine density and analyze materials ultrasonically, analyze corrosion and, finally, determine moisture in concrete and other construction materials. And more. James Instruments Inc. -- rugged, quality equipment for field use -- backed by factory service and an ongoing program of research and development.
