TCS50 - Triaxial cell
TCS50 - Triaxial cellTCS50 - Triaxial cell
for triaxial testing according to DIN EN ISO 17892-8 /-9 (DIN 18137-2) with sample diameters up to 50 mm
The TCS50 triaxial test cell is used to for various triaxial test types (UU, CU, D, CCV). With suitable accessories, samples with a diameter of 38 and 50 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 and arranged in such a way that this test cell can be integrated into even very compact test presses.
