Water Retention Apparatus

The apparatus is used in specification tests of masonry cement and physical testing of quicklime and hydrated lime. Unlike older models, the newly designed unit incorporates a vacuum regulator and gauge system in place of the old mercury manometer and relief column. The complete unit consists of an aspirator pump, vacuum regulator, vacuum gauge, three-way stopcock, flask, rubber gasket, brass funnel, perforated brass dish, filter paper and hardwood stand. Meets ASTM C1506, C110, C207 and E149.
