- Fully automated permeability test for the determination of the coefficient of permeability (software module and additional APC is required)
Hydraulic Consolidation System (Rowe Cell Testing System)
The VJ Tech Rowe Cell testing system consists of a hydraulic cell used for the determination of the magnitudes and rates of consolidation for low permeability soils. Vertical stress is applied through an Automatic Hydraulic Pressure Controller (APCH). A second APCH is used to control the applied Back Pressure while PwP is measured at the base of the specimen with the use of one or more Pore Water Pressure transducer(s).
The Rowe Cell Testing System provides a convenient means of testing from small to large specimens while enabling drainage in either the horizontal or vertical directions to be investigated.
The Clisp Studio csRowe software module enables the performance of a Rowe Cell consolidation test with full automation and minimum human intervention. Permeability testing can be performed with the addition of a Single APC & the Clisp Studio Permeability software.
