Another new evolution, in the field of indicators available for Tinius Olsen and other manufacturers concrete compression testing machines, is ECO II. Version II of our successful ECO head will display a live force reading during the test and report peak stress along with peak force when test is complete.

Key features of ECO II are:

-  User enters test specimen area before starting a test, it’s stored.

-  During the test, the real time force value is displayed.

- When the test is complete the display automatically alternates between peak force and peak stress results.

TO ECO II head is supplied with TO 4 pillar compression machines and is also available for retrofits.

 

Key features and functionality

• 4 digit display.

• Force units are factory set to your choice of English/imperial, Metric or SI indicated by LED.

• Force calibration range 1% to 100% with an accuracy +\- 1% of applied force.

• Specimen area input.

• Instantaneous force displayed during test.

• Result Peak Force and peak Stress.

• 4 user keys; Start Stop, Zero and Set Break Point.

• User defined Break Detect.

• Mains power and off line battery capability.

• Integral SSR for adaptation to pumping units.

• 10 point dynamic calibration.

World Of Concrete logoAs the summer winds down and its almost time to start planning for the fall and winter activities, we’d like to remind you early on that the 38th exhibition of World of Concrete is coming up at the beginning of 2012; the show dates are January 24 – 27. Tinius Olsen is exhibiting on booth #N1816 and will be showing some of our most popular testing products.

At past shows many visitors have made comments like “I didn’t know you were in this business”, in fact Tinius Olsen is probably the oldest testing equipment manufacturer at the show and has been manufacturing, calibrating and servicing testing machines since 1880. Elsewhere on this website you can find a copy of our older sales literature designed for testing concrete, but don’t forget to mark your calendar in late January with a visit to our booth at WOC.

Click here to see one of our earlier catalogs designed for civil engineers. The catalog is undated but since it features Tinius Olsen himself (Tinius died in 1932) and also features our original factory address (we moved to our current headquarters location in 1946) we believe the catalog was printed prior to 1932.

Concrete is a man-made material, essentially mixed fresh on site. The properties of concrete depend on the properties of its ingredients and their proportion, and it is likely to vary from mix to mix. Typically a concrete mixture would consist of cement, aggregate & water.
