Air Meter Parts
Pressure Meter Parts
Most replacement pressure meter parts and accessories are interchangeable, but some are specific to a certain brand of meter. When ordering replacement latch tabs and assemblies, you must specify what type your air meter is compatible with. An easy way to tell the difference between the two clamp assemblies is to see how they attach to your meter. The Forney style latch assembly has three screw holes, while the American Cube Mold latch assembly has only two. The same rule holds true for replacement buckets and lids. They will only fit with their compatible counterpart. If you have any questions about what parts to buy, please give us a call at 888.293.2121 or email us at sales@myerstest.com

Control panels feature longer burettes and 0.02ml graduation that give more accurate results and faster turnaround time. The flex panels feature single cell, double cell and master control panels. These panels include a digital readout pressure meter, pressure supply gauge. As well as a master pressure regulator. The add-on logic panel provide additional triaxial and permeability test chambers. This helps to increase the economical productivity. In addition, these panels attach to the Master Logic Control panel. By using the master’s digital pressure readout they display the confining cell pressures. The design of the master logic control panel combines precise control, logic layout and quality components for accuracy.
Load Cells
Load cells measure in either compression or tension to an accuracy of less than 0.0300% strain. Constructed out of stainless or nickel alloy plated steel.
Load Frames
Load frames work with CBR, UCC, UU, soil cement and Marshall testing. Load frames feature RS232, high speed platen advances, and mechanical jacks to provide steady test speeds.
Load Rings
Load rings measure compression with their high strength aluminum alloy. As well as their repeatable elastic deformation ability under varying loads.
Permeameters
Permeameters test granular samples using either the constant-head or falling-head methods. Constant and falling head use the permeameter, manometer tube, two funnels and either porous stones or perforated screens. Other permeameters like the Shelby tube test undisturbed soil samples in sections of 3 in diameter Shelby tubes. Consisting of corrosion-resistant top and bottom plates, valves and two porous stones. Another permeameter such as the Compaction permeameter determines the permeability of clay, sand and gravel. Molds come with upper and lower plates that feature inlet/outlet connectors for water to flow through.
Test Chambers
Triaxial test chambers feature a precision ground and polished stainless steel load piston designed for low breakaway friction. In addition, they also work as flexible wall permeability testing applications.
Testing Accessories
All of the testing accessories you could need for a triaxial or permeability test. Accessories available range from, open end wire saw, latex membranes, o-rings, and high vacuum grease. In addition other accessories include 2 part compaction molds, 2 part miter boxes and vacuum split molds.
