Water Retention Test Apparatus

Water Retention Test Apparatus

The apparatus is used in specification tests of masonry cement and physical testing of quicklime and hydrated lime.
Unlike older models, this unit incorporates a vacuum regulator and gauge system in place of the old mercury manometer and relief column. The complete unit consists of an aspirator pump, vacuum regulator, vacuum gauge, three way stopcock, flask, rubber gasket, brass funnel, perforated brass dish, filter paper (Whatman no. 50, 150 mm diameter) and hardwood stand.
