Standards
The UTEST Semi-Automatic (Motorized) range of single testing chamber and double testing chamber compression and flexure testing machines have been designed for reliable and consistent testing of mortar samples. These compression and flexure testers are the results of continuous applications and research studies to upgrade the machines with the latest technologies and conform with current standards EN 196-1, 459-2, 1015-11, 13454-2; ASTM C 109, C348, C349 and BS 3892-1, 4551-1 in terms of its technical properties taking into account client requirements by using suitable accessories. These testers also meet the requirements of CE norms for safety and health of the operator.
The UTEST Semi-Automatic cement compression and flexure testing machines allow operators who have minimal experience to perform the tests.
The UTEST Semi-Automatic cement compression and flexure testing machines consist of a very rigid two column single or double chamber frame and UTC-4820SLP hydraulic powerpack with LPI Battery Operated Digital Readout Unit.
Compression and flexure jigs, distance pieces, and also removable transparent front-rear safety doors (should be factory installed) should be ordered separately
Main Features
-Class A (ASTM) starting from with the 1 % of the 250 kN and 15 kN capacity Multi-point calibration
Multi-point calibration
-2 channels for load-cell or pressure transducer with two different calibration table (LPI Battery Operated Digital Readout Unit (UTC-4920LP)
-Real time numeric display of load and load pressure
-Peak hold property
-RS232 Serial port for PC or thermal or dot matrix printer
-Free of charge Utest software for compression/flexure testing machines(USOFT-4820.SLP) for compression, flexure, splitting tensile strength tests of construction materials such as concrete, cement, brick/masonry units
Safety Features
- -Maximum pressure valves to avoid machine overloading____
- -Piston travel limit switch___
- -Removable transparent front-rear safety doors (Should be factory installed and ordered separately)
Utest Software for Semi-Automatic Cement Compression/Flexure Tests (USOFT-3722.SLP)
USOFT-3722.SLP Test Software is improved for semi-automatic cement compression and flexural testing machines with LPI Battery Operated Digital Readout Unit during the test to collect and record data and to prepare the report containing the results obtained. Before the test, a PC which the Utest software is installed_is connected to RS232 port of LPI reading unit, the data obtained in the test can be monitored and recorded in real time. The _advanced functions for data base management provide an easy navigation of all saved data. Test report including the test results and user defined test information (names and the Company details, test type, specimen type, user info and other knowledge required) can be print out.

The Maximum horizontal clearance for placing the sample is limited by the border of the platens. Sample must be placed such that its ends will not overlap the ends of platens and it must be centered perfectly. The suitable vertical clearance for the specimen can be adjusted using the distance pieces.
