Voluvessels determine the in-place density of compacted or firmly-bonded soils using a rubber balloon apparatus viewed through a graduated, direct-reading clear plastic cylinder.
Models H-4166 and H-4167 feature a plastic cylinder, which screws into the density plate with the pump assembly mounted on top. They come with a pressure-vacuum pump assembly, pressure gauge, quick coupler valve, double-graduated cylinder, 10 balloons and a density plate and meet ASTM D2167; AASHTO T205.
Voluvessels are not suitable for soft soils that will deform under slight pressure or in which the volume of the hole cannot be maintained at a constant value.
Models H-4166 and H-4167 are individually calibrated before leaving the factory to ensure readings on the scale are accurate without the need for calculations.
