The Torrent permeability tester permits a rapid and non destructive measurement of the quality of the cover concrete with respect to its durability. Concrete permeability is an excellent indicator of the potential durability and resistance of a particular concrete against the ingress of aggressive media in the gaseous or liquid state. A measurement with Proceq’s permeability tester takes 2-12 minutes.

Features
  • The data is automatically collected by the display unit and the permeability coefficient kT as well as the penetration depth L of the vacuum are automatically calculated
  • Measurement takes 2 - 12 minutes depending on permeability of the concrete
  • The quality class of the concrete cover of dry concrete can be read from a table using the kT value
  • In the case of moist concrete, kT is combined with electrical concrete resistance ρ (rho) and the quality class is determined from a nomogram
  • Optional resistance Wenner-probe to correct the influence of concrete moisture is available.
