Tariff 90278080

Concrete filter press consisting of:

 Test sieve
 50ml Plastic measuring cylinder
 250ml Plastic measuring cup
 250mm Aluminium laboratory shovel 
 Digital stopwatch
 Filter paper (100 pieces per pack)

Measuring principle
The applied pressure for carrying out the test with the CE562 Concrete Filter Press was set to 5 bar,
which is kept constant over a period of 5 minutes. Depending on the requirements and experience,
it may be necessary to screen the coarse-grained concrete to be examined to a maximum of 8 mm.
According to internal experience, this screening can usually be dispensed with up to a maximum
diameter of 20 mm.

Measured data
Due to the numerous experiences with the CE562 concrete fi lter press and in particular the
international application, a matrix has now been created which refl ects the following guide values
for the fresh concrete stability of the special deep-casting concrete:

Filtration water

 
  High requirements ≤ 22 ml
 Medium requirements ≤ 40 ml
 Low requirements ≤ 60 ml
Filter cake

The filter cake produced in the test provides additional information on the suitability of the fresh
concrete. A low filter cake height and a soft filter cake is advantageous.
