FAQ's of Universal Automatic Compactor:
Q: How does the Universal Automatic Compactor enhance soil compaction testing in laboratories?
A: This compactor improves soil testing by providing accurate, repeatable strokes and blow counts through programmable, digital controls. Automation of the test sequence and immediate digital blow-by-blow response minimizes operator intervention, ensuring reliable results for academic and industrial applications.
Q: What compaction standards does this equipment conform to?
A: The Universal Automatic Compactor complies with IS 2720 (Part VII & VIII) and ASTM standards D698 and D1557, ensuring suitability for Standard Proctor and Modified Proctor tests required in geotechnical engineering and research.
Q: When is it necessary to select between the two rammer weights provided?
A: Choosing between the 2.6 kg and 4.89 kg rammer weights depends on the specific test requirement-light compaction tests generally use the lighter rammer, whereas heavy compaction protocols require the heavier option, as specified by the relevant testing standards.
Q: What safety features are incorporated in this compactor?
A: A built-in safety device ensures automatic release of the rammer when the machine door is opened, protecting users from accidental operation. The safety interlock system is designed to meet strict laboratory safety protocols.
Q: Where can the Universal Automatic Compactor be installed in a lab setting?
A: This equipment is suitable for bench or tabletop mounting and requires standard laboratory conditions with a 220V AC, 50 Hz power supply, 10%-90% relative humidity, and ambient temperatures from 0C to 50C.
Q: How is the test process carried out using this compactor?
A: The operator selects appropriate settings for rammer weight and blow count, places a single soil specimen in the standard mould, and initiates the automatic cycle. The compactor performs precise drops at programmable speeds, with the digital counter tracking every blow until the test sequence concludes.
Q: What benefits does the digital blow counter provide during testing?
A: The digital blow counter delivers immediate and precise blow counts with resolution up to one count, allowing users to monitor and control compaction cycles effectively and satisfy stringent test accuracy demands.
