About This Product
Water from the constant level tank passes through the sample held in the cell, and the heads reached at the cell outlets are read off the glass manometer tubes on the standpipe. Holding the supply level steady keeps the head fixed during the run, which is the principle of the constant head method used for permeability testing of construction materials. Colleges and TVET centres in Kiribati, Slovenia, Gabon, Zimbabwe and Trinidad and Tobago can source the Permeability Test System from Educational Lab Equipments.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of soil is the cell meant for?
