ESE-011-Sand Equivalent Apparatus

The Sand Equivalent Apparatus is an essential tool in geotechnical testing, used to determine the relative proportions of fine dust, clay-like particles, and silt in sand and aggregates. This test ensures that fine aggregates meet the quality standards required for the production of concrete, asphalt, and other construction materials. As the best manufacturer of Sand Equivalent Apparatus in India, we offer precision-engineered equipment to help you achieve superior material quality and durability.

How It Works

The apparatus includes a graduated plastic cylinder, a standardized measuring device, and a stirrer. The test involves:

1. Place a sand or aggregate sample into the cylinder.
2. Adding a reagent, usually a calcium chloride solution, to create a suspension.
3. Shaking the cylinder to allow the mixture to separate into two distinct layers: The sand layer at the bottom and the Clay and silt layer forming a muddy suspension on top.
4. Measuring the height of the sand layer and comparing it to the total height of the liquid column to calculate the Sand Equivalent value.

As the leading manufacturer of Sand Equivalent Apparatus, we ensure that our tools provide accurate measurements, enabling you to evaluate the cleanliness and quality of sand effectively. High sand equivalent values indicate clean aggregates, suitable for concrete and asphalt, while lower values highlight excessive fines that could reduce material strength and stability.

Applications:

1. Quality Control: Ideal for testing sand and aggregates in concrete and asphalt production.
2. Laboratory and Field Testing: Portable and easy to use for on-site assessments.
3. Construction Materials Testing: Helps ensure aggregates meet the required standards for durability and workability.

Our Sand Equivalent Apparatus is built with durable materials to withstand rigorous usage in laboratories and field environments, offering reliable, quick results for professionals in civil engineering and material testing.
