The Density Meter is a modern measuring instrument that enables precise analyses of wet and dry density, degree of compaction and moisture content in soil. A Density Meter is used in various areas, including road construction, foundation construction, landfill construction, environmental and hydraulic engineering. They help engineers and site managers to analyse soil properties and quality to ensure that soils are suitable for the intended construction projects. By precisely recording the density, degree of compaction and moisture content, well-founded decisions can be made on further soil treatment, compaction or stabilisation. It makes a decisive contribution to quality assurance and enables a well-founded assessment of material properties in order to carry out construction projects efficiently, safely and sustainably.
Equipped with an integrated GPS, it provides precise location data for every measurement. The large 5-inch touch screen ensures user-friendly operation and quick navigation through the functions. Thanks to the fast measuring time of just 5 seconds, the Density Meter enables efficient work and prompt results. The Density Meter has an internal data memory with capacity for up to 4200 measured values, allowing extensive data to be saved directly and analysed later. The included software assists in analysing the collected data.
In addition, the Density Meter measures the soil temperature and provides precise density values in real time. A practical status bar shows the GPS status, the memory capacity, the available battery voltage, a possible low battery level as well as the date and time. All relevant information is therefore always visible at a glance so that you can fully concentrate on the measurements with the Density Meter.
