MOTORIZED MECHANICAL END-OVER-END SHAKER

Description

• Used to shake gas jars filled with fine soil specimen and water
• It provides homogenous shaking and mixing of the specimen conforming to BS 1377-2 requirements
• Can be used in combination with Hydrometer Test Set (T-251) to determine the distribution of particle sizes of the fine-grained portion of soils. The sedimentation or hydrometer method is used to determine the particle-size distribution (gradation) of the material that is finer than the No. 200 (75-µm) sieve and larger than about 0.2-µm. The test is performed on material passing the No. 10 (2.0-mm) or finer sieve and the results are presented as the mass percent finer versus the log of the particle diameter
