200 kN Plate Bearing Tester with 3 Dial Gauges

The 200 kN Plate Bearing Tester with 3 Dial Gauges is a robust analogue system designed for high-capacity plate load tests on soil, subgrades, and pavement layers. Equipped with three dial gauges, it enables precise settlement measurements across multiple points, ensuring reliable assessment of bearing capacity and deformation behaviour during geotechnical field investigations.

This configuration includes a 200 kN hydraulic jack, analogue manometer, spherical seat, and a complete datum bar assembly for stable and accurate readings during the entire test sequence. It is suitable for both civil engineering fieldwork and on-site construction quality assessments.

Included Components:

  • S225-01 Hydraulic jack 200 kN capacity, complete with a hand pump, rubber pipe with fast connector, set of extension rods of different lengths, and carrying case.
  • S225-02 Analogue pressure gauge 0-200 kN, div. 1 kN.
  • S226-13 Upper spherical seat.
  • S226-05 Load plate Ø 300 mm
  • S226-06 Intermediate plate Ø 160 mm
  • S222-03 Datum bar assembly, 2.5 m long, telescopic, aluminium made, adjustable in height, complete with base supports, plumb and spirit level. Packed separately.
  • S377 n° 3 dial gauges 25x0.01 mm
  • S226-16 n° 3 articulated dial gauge supports with adjustment device.

Weight: 70 kg approx.

If used with the loading plates (accessory) Ø 450, 600, and 760 mm, it meets also: ASTM D1195, D1196 and CNR N. 92.
