TCS100 - triaxial cell
TCS100 - triaxial cellTCS100 - triaxial cell
for triaxial testing according to DIN EN ISO 17892-8 /-9 (DIN 18137-2) with sample diameters up to 100 mm
The TCS100 triaxial test cell is used to for various triaxial test types (UU, CU, D, CCV). With suitable accessories, samples with a diameter of 38 to 100 mm can be examined. The banded transparent cylinder allows the sample to be easily observed at all times. This is essential for correctly interpreting the test results. The connections for the pore pressure system and the cell pressure are equipped with ball valves.
Due to the size of the cell, the integration of additional sensors (internal force sensor, temperature sensors, strain sensors) or temperature control systems is optionally possible.
