About Cement Autoclave
We are one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of Cement Autoclave units. These units are fabricated in accordance with IS: 4031 (Part III). This autoclave is apt for conducting accelerated soundness tests on cements as well as the autoclave expansion test, needing a constant steam pressure by the corresponding constant temperature.
Components :
It consists of a stainless steel cylinder with an insulated cover, mounted on a sturdy supporting frame, enclosed in a heat insulated metal housing. The attached control unit encloses a sensitive pressure regulator and pressure gauge, power switches and pilot lamps for controlling the electrical heating units.
Advanced Steam Curing Technology for Cement TestingThe Cement Autoclave utilizes autoclave steam curing technology to provide consistent steam pressure and temperature conditions, crucial for accurate cement sample analysis. Its adjustable cycle timer enables tailored testing intervals, while the digital control system ensures reliable processes and robust safety features.
Precision Construction and Reliable PerformanceBuilt with durable stainless steel and outfitted with Nichrome wire heaters, the autoclave achieves high thermal efficiency and longevity. The inclusion of a stainless steel basket or rack enhances sample handling, and compliance with IS: 4031 guarantees standardized results. Powder-coated finishing offers resilience against laboratory wear.
User-Friendly Operation and Flexible ApplicationWhether using the foot lever or manual locking system, operators benefit from secure door mechanisms. Intuitive digital LCD displays streamline monitoring, while floor-mounted installation provides stability. This equipment suits a range of laboratory environments where cement quality and durability are critically assessed.
FAQs of Cement Autoclave:
Q: How does the Cement Autoclave enhance laboratory cement testing accuracy?
A: By providing controlled steam pressure and temperature up to 216C, the cement autoclave ensures precise curing conditions, allowing laboratories to assess cement soundness and durability with 2C temperature accuracy.
Q: What is the process for loading and operating cement samples in the autoclave?
A: Samples are placed in a stainless steel basket or rack, securely loaded into the autoclave chamber. Operators can select the desired cycle time (up to 99 minutes) and adjust parameters using the digital controls before activating the curing cycle.
Q: When should laboratories use the Cement Autoclave in their testing protocol?
A: Laboratories should use the autoclave during soundness and durability examinations of cement, as specified in IS: 4031, to validate that samples meet quality requirements for construction applications.
Q: Where is this autoclave primarily installed and used?
A: This laboratory equipment is floor-mounted, making it suitable for research institutions, quality control labs, and manufacturing test facilities engaged in cement sample analysis.
Q: What benefits does the digital LCD display and controller provide for operators?
A: The digital LCD display and controller offer clear parameter visualization and precise adjustment of temperature and pressure settings, reducing the likelihood of operator error and ensuring repeatability in testing results.
Q: Are there safety features included with the Cement Autoclave?
A: Yes, the autoclave is equipped with safety interlocks, a pressure gauge, a safety valve, and a water level indicator to protect users and ensure safe operation under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
