General
:
The Maxim C1. Compression Tester is designed for use in both the laboratory and field for testing 6? (152mm) diameter by12" (305mm) long concrete cylinders.

The load frame consists of four steel uprights, treated and welded into the upper and lower plates. This agreement allows for a maximum of daylight opening in the testing frame, for easy access to the specimen.

Test loads are applied to the specimen by means of hydraulic loading cylinder and hand actuated pump system.. At specimen failure the maximum load is displayed in english & metric unites on the pressure gauge.

The C1 is supplied complete with platens for test standard 6? by 12? (152 x 305mm) cylinders using either the capping compound or capping pad methods.

With optional attachments, the C1 can be used for flexure, cube, block and small cylinder testing.
