H-2912L Compressometer-Extensometer with LSCTs, 6″ x 12″

Compressometer-extensometers are used to determine Poisson’s ratio and Young’s modulus during a compression test. This device contains a third, center yoke with a hinge dividing it into two equal segments. The middle yoke is hinged to permit rotation of the two segments of the yoke in the horizontal plane. Indicator gives deformation readings. Second indicator is furnished for compressometer section. Unit measures changes in length and diameter. All H-2900 series compressometers may be ordered with dial gauges, digital indicators or strain transducers, see charts above. Digital indicators and LSCT models can be used with data acquisition systems through the use of our miniloggers.
