Soil Testing Lab Equipment

Grain Size Analysis (Pipette Method)

Model: EIT 3019
Standards Meets: IS 2720 P-IV

Percentage by weight of the various particle sizes is expressed in this manner. To avoid floculation, it is recommended that a dispersion agent be used as a standard procedure of Grain Size Analysis (Pipette Method). Elite Lab is manufacturer and supplier of Grain Size Analysis(Pipette Method) in Kolkata, Patna, Ranchi, West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand India.

Salient Structures
Stipulations:

An Anderson pipette happens to be linked to a sliding panel that may be raised and lowered vertically by a screw, allowing the panel to be raised or lowered. In addition to the pipette, a sedimentation tube is held in place by a laboratory clamp on the stand below it. The sliding panel has a millimetre scale on the side that measures the depth of the water. Anderson pipette with 10 mL capacity, 500 mL glass sedimentation tube, and 50 No's Test forms are included in the kit.

Accessories and spares:

  • Sedimentation tube 100ml
  • Sedimentation Pipette (Anderson pipette) 25ml
  • Sedimentation tube 500ml
  • Sedimentation pipette 10ml
  • Test forms pad of 50

Pipette Method:

This method happens to be the standard method of sedimentation recommended by Grain Size Analysis Pipette Method exporter in Kolkata India.

The apparatus comprises of the following:

  • Pipette of 10-mL capacity.
  • Weighing bottles of 25-mm diameter and 50-mm height.
  • Two 500-mL assessing cylinders.
  • Continuous temperature bath.
  • Balance.
  • Mechanical stirrer.
  • Oven.

The sedimentation study by pipette method involves of the following phases:

  • Pre-treatment of soil.
  • Calibration of pipette.
  • Sedimentation.
  • Dispersion of soil.
Norm:

A hydrometer happens to be used to quantify a soil suspension's density, and the density of the soil suspension is then used to estimate an average particle size at the sample depth. The hydrometer is used to measure the density of the soil suspension at the bulb's midpoint. This method differs from that of the pipette in that the sample depth does not remain constant but rather rises with time, unlike the pipette technique.
