Contact SupplierThe Cross Permeability Test Apparatus is used to measure the permeability of soil or rock samples by determining the rate at which water or other fluids pass through them. It consists of a main test chamber to hold the soil sample, with inlet and outlet ports for fluid flow. The apparatus typically includes pressure gauges or manometers to measure hydraulic head difference across the sample. Flow rate is controlled and measured precisely to determine permeability coefficients. The frame and components are made from corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or brass. It often features transparent sections or windows to observe the sample during testing. The device is compatible with standard sample sizes and complies with testing standards such as ASTM D2434 or IS 281. Power supply requirements vary if the unit has electronic components, but many models operate manually or with simple hydraulic controls. Accessories may include sample holders, pressure regulators, and flow meters.
