Concrete Testing
Water Impermeability Tester
Water Impermeability Tester is designed for testing the resistance of concrete and cement-based specimens to water penetration under controlled pressure conditions. It is suitable for concrete testing laboratories, civil engineering institutions, research
Product Overview
The Water Impermeability Tester is designed to determine the resistance of concrete and cement-based specimens to water penetration under controlled pressure conditions. It is widely used for evaluating the waterproofing performance and impermeability characteristics of concrete used in construction and civil engineering applications.
The instrument is suitable for testing concrete specimens in accordance with relevant testing standards and laboratory procedures. It provides a practical solution for quality control, material research, and laboratory testing of concrete and other cement-based construction materials.
Applications:
- Concrete impermeability testing
- Water penetration testing
- Concrete quality control
- Civil engineering laboratories
- Construction material research
- University and technical institute laboratories

Technical Specifications
This apparatus is used to determine the depth of penetration of the water into the concrete (impermeability) under known time and pressure. The unit accepts concrete cubic, cylindrical or prismatic specimens having max. dimensions of 200x200x200 mm. The specimen is put into the test chamber, clamped with suitable flanges with central screw and round gaskets. A known water pressure is applied on the specimen’s surface for a known time, as requested by Standard, using a suitable air compressor (see accessory) having at least 5 bar pressure. A manometer checks constantly the applied water pressure. The apparatus is supplied complete with graduated burettes fixed on the front panel. The water penetrated is measured by breaking the specimen, or by reading the water permeated through the graduated burette. Two models available: three place and six place version. The places can be used all-together at the same time, or one by one independently.
