Plunger is steadily pushed into the mortar to a 1 in. depth, as indicated on the shaft, at periodic time intervals. Penetrometer's calibrated range is 0-700psi. Resistance in psi is indicated on the scale. The term "initial set" is the semi-hardened, partially hydrated condition of the concrete beyond which it can no longer be worked. The point of initial set is reached when the penetration value is 500psi. Meets ASTM C780.
