Falling Head Permeameter
Used to determine the permeability of fine-grained soils such as clay-like or silty soils.
The specimen is confined within the permeameter which is connected to the manometer tube filled with water.
The sample must be completely saturated with water before the test, and the operator will check the rate of fall of the water in the tube passing through the test specimen.
The Falling Head Permeability Cell is manufactured from plated steel with an inside diameter of 100 mm.
The Stand, comprising 4 pieces∅4, ∅5, ∅ 6, ∅ 8 mm x 1 m long Glass Manometer Tubes, Rubber Tube and Connectors.
The Soaking Reservoir Tank is used for containing the permeability cell during the test.
