De-Aired Water Apparatus
De- Aired Water Apparatus
EKE 097-1:
The equipment has been designed specifically to meet a demand for de – aired water for use with
• Soil Testing Apparatus for reduction or time and labor to consolidate soil samples
• For Simultaneous flushing of many hydraulic piezpmeter lines in dams and earth works to considerably reduce labor and disturbance at the top ends
It is particularly important that only de-aired water is used in the pore pressure measurement system. Any dissolved air in the water leads to error in measurement of pore pressure, particularly at low pressure.
It is a compact self contained unit, will de-air quickly and efficiently , reduce levels of dissolved oxygen, acceptable for geotechnical test methods. Air is removed from the water by a vacuum system which continuously circulates the water in the tank
The unit is supplied with Perspex Water Container which will hold a maximum of 15 ltr. of water. Input and output lines are fixed with 4 mm (approx.) and 6 mm (approx.) ID of plastic tubing respectively.

EKE 104:
The Direct shear test is carried out with an apparatus consisting of a square divided into two halves. The specimen, contained in the box , is suitable to a constant normal load while an increasing horizontal force is applied to one of the sections of the shear box. This force causes a shear failure along the junction between the box sections. The shear force and the normal load are measured directly. The rate of strain is adjusted by the speed of the horizontal force applied. The loading unit has V- strips on which the shear box housing rests. The precalibrated load yoke helps counter balance the loading system. The load yoke with direct and through level system for applying normal load upto 8 Kg/cm² capacity, fixtures for proving ring , brackets fro holding consolidation and strain dial gauges are provided. The lead screw connected to the shear box housing helps application of shear stress.

Clegg Impact Tester
Clegg Impact Tester
EKE 0773:
The Clegg Impact Soil Tester provides a means for measuring and controlling soil strength and consolidation levels during trench reinstatement. It is also used to confirm compaction of over wide areas of ground, identifying poorly compacted areas and ineffective rolling of materials.
The Tester consists of a 4.5 kg compaction hammer operating within a vertical guide tube. When the hammer is released from a fixed height it falls through the tube and strikes the surface under test, declaring at a rate determined by the stiffness of the material within the region of impact. A precision accelerometer mounted on the hammers feed its output to a hand held digital readout unit which registers the declaration in units of Impact Value (IV) over a typical measuring range of 1 to 60 IV. The IV indicates soil strength and shows good correlation with CBR test results.
The unit is supplied in a transit case with calibration certificate and operating instructions.

ENKAY also offers an alternative to the Clegg Impact Tester for quality control. This works the same the principal of a known mass falling a known distance. The testers reaction is recorded on a digital readout on a scale of 0-100 Impact Values, which correlate exactly to Clegg Impact Values or CIV
The Units is supplied – with a year long calibration and a calibration a ‘test ring’ for daily operational checks. All contained in a strong lightweight transit case.
