Proceq has combined the best of Original Schmidt with the most advanced technology to create the new SilverSchmidt concrete test hammer.
The SilverSchmidt offers a virtually maintenance free, lightweight and compact construction.
This next generation tool combines an electronic display and advanced mechanics with true rebound coefficient that automatically converts to compressive strength.
Features
- Measurement inherently independent of impact direction, meaning no directional corrections are necessary
- High measuring accuracy due to differential optical absolute velocity encoder
- Conversion curves for a wide range of compressive concrete strengths, including low fc (<10 N/mm2, 1’450 psi) and high strength concrete (up to 100 N/mm2, 14’500 psi)
- Simple operation with "one-button", combined with advanced tilt and twist technology user interface
- Language independent graphical menu with symbols
- Automatic conversion to the required measurement unit (MPa, N/mm2, kg/cm2, psi)
Applications
- Suitable for testing a wide variety of concrete, mortar and rock
- Ideally suited for on-site testing
- Handy for difficult to access or confined test areas (i.e. working overhead)
- Especially convenient for testing on tunnel linings as measurements are independent of impact direction
- Assessment on young, soft concrete with mushroom plunger (to indicate when to remove forms or for formwork)
