Permeability Meter VP

 

  • 1.1 General information

    This equipment to measure Permeability of Foundry Sands. By default it can measure absolute permeability of an AFS (Dia. 2ā€X2ā€) or Metric (Dia. 50mmX50mm) Specimen.

    With Help of attachment it can also measure

    • Relative Permeability of Moulds (Refer 4.2.1)
    • Absolute Permeability of Cores (Refer 4.2.2)
    • Absolute Permeability of Un-bonded sand (Refer 4.2.3).
  • 1.2 General Usage

    Specimen held in a Tube or accessory is placed on the measuring Rubber Boss. Conduct the test cycle & read the permeability reading on AFS chart.
