Steel Dry Sieve Test Apparatus

Dry Sieve Test Apparatus is used for particle size analysis of soil and aggregates. It typically includes a set of standard test sieves made of stainless steel or brass with mesh sizes as per IS 460 or ASTM E11. The sieves are mounted on a sieve shaker which operates at a fixed amplitude and frequency, usually 200-300 vibrations per minute. The standard sieve diameters are 200 mm or 300 mm. The stack consists of a pan at the bottom and a lid on top. The apparatus is powered by an electric motor, generally operating at 220V AC, and is suitable for dry analysis only. It is compliant with IS 2720 (Part 4) and ASTM C136 standards.
