Made of two anodized aluminium pieces, one fixed and the other sliding and housing an LVDT transducer that measures with high accuracy the movement of two conical points made of hardened steel and attached at the two ends of the electronic sensor.
An aluminium template (mod C134-10) is used to regulate and calibrate the base length. The two conical points are coupled to the surface of the sample with a rapid and simple attachment system using two adjustable elastic bands.
The instrument is equipped with a mechanical knob to lock and unlock the displacement transducer, allowing it to safeguard the selected base length while attaching the device to the sample. Normally the test is performed on cylinders, cubes or prisms by using 3 extensometers/ compressometers.
The minimum height required for a sample is 130 mm.
It is also possible to test mortar prisms 40x40x160 mm by using a block for reducing length (included in C134).
The gauge length is adjustable from 50 to 160 mm.
Feeding up to 10 V.
Travel: ± 1.5 mm (3 mm total)
Precision 0.1 micron
Supplied complete with reducing block for mortar prisms, elastic straps, and carrying case.
Weight: 1000 g approx.
C134-10:Similar to C134 but for a sample with a minimum height of 60 mm and minimum Ø 63 mm. Includes a distance piece Ø 67x44 mm.
