Air Entrainment Meter

Product Details :

The use of chemical additives to increase work ability of concrete in turn requires an air content check to be made. Air entrainment meters are used to determine air entrained in freshly mixed concrete by pressure method.The apparatus consists of a pressure tight flanged cylindrical measuring bowl of removable flanged conical cover assembly with the help of a seal. The conical cover has an air valve and a petcock for bleeding off the water.A transparent cylindrical stand pipe which is graduated in air content is fixed to the conical cover assembly. Pressure is applied to the specimen with the help of a pressure bulb and the pressure is recorded on the pressure gauge which is mounted on the stand pipe.
