Cement

Cement is the binder used to create concrete and mortar. The manufacturing of cement requires stringent control and a number of tests being performed in cement plant laboratories to ensure that the cement is of the desired quality and that it conforms to the requirements of the relevant standards.

The most important use of cement is the production of concrete and mortar, which are the combination of cement and an aggregate to form a strong building material that is durable in the face of normal environmental effects.

Heat of Hydration Calorimeter with High Resolution D. Th.

Product code

UTCM-0347

Heat of Hydration Calorimeter with High Resolution Digital Thermometer, 230 V, 50-60 Hz, 1 ph

Information

EN 196-8; ASTM C186

 

When Portland or hydraulic cement is mixed with water, heat is generated as a result of the exothermic reaction. The heat generated by cement’s hydration raises the temperature of concrete and this temperature rise causes expansion while concrete is hardening, especially under conditions when heat can not be readily released.

The UTCM-0347 Heat of Hydration Calorimeter is used for determining the heat of hydration of low heat Portland and hydraulic cement. The apparatus consists of a Dewar flask housed in an insulated box, an electric stirrer, a filler funnel and a high resolution battery operated electronic  thermometer.

The mixers have been designed to mix mortars and cement pastes primarily to the requirements of standards. The mixing paddles have a planetary motion and is driven by a motor with a microprocessor based speed and preset programs to meet all listed EN and ASTM standards, custom designed programs or manual mode. The mode button is used for the fast selection of different programs.

The mixing paddles revolve at a rate of 140 rpm. with a planetary motion of 62 rpm. in low speed. In high speed, the paddles revolve at the rate of 285 rpm. with a planetary motion of 125 rpm. An automatic sand dispenser is supplied with the machine and the sand is automatically discharged. Custom design allows 6 programs to be set by the operator, where the motor speed, sand dispenser position and duration of the mix can be set. For the mix where the motor speed is selected as zero, the bowl can be lowered without interrupting the rest of the program. On the display the user can see the mix time and the machine is equipped with lamp in order to warn the user for critical time periods.

Jolting Table is used for compacting of cement specimens in 40x40x160  mm mould and consists of mould table seated on a rotating cam driven at 60 r.p.m. The falling height is 15 mm conforming to EN 196-1. The machine is equipped with a counter which provides automatic shut off at end of preset drop numbers.

Weight and dimensions of the jolting table fully comply with the requirements of EN 196-1 standard. When used with UTCM-0892 Three Gang Mould and UTCM-0893  Feed Hopper, the total weight of the moving part is 20 kg ± 0.5 kg.  Without UTCM-0892   and UTCM-0893  the weight of the moving parts is 6.85 kg. Rapid mould lock and release system allows easy and quick operation.

The supporting frame of the machine has been designed to ensure precise dimensions, table flatness, correct centering of the three gang mould on the table.

The motor and gearbox assembly is enclosed in a protective housing, which promotes user safety (the moving parts are inaccessible) and long life for the gearbox.

The standard model can be supplied with a safety/noise reduction cabinet. The cabinet is lined internally with soundproofing material to reduce sound level conforming to CE directives.

UTCM-0893  Feed Hopper is used for filling UTCM-0892  Three Gang Moulds placed on the Jolting Table.

UTCM-0892  Three Gang Mould, UTCM-0893   Feed Hopper, UTCM-0894 Short and Long Spreaders and Straightedge should be ordered separately.
