Penetration: Penetrometer PNR 12 (Bitumen) Standards depend on the selected accessories ASTM D5, EN 1426, JIS K 2207 Product group(s): User group(s): Scope: Consistency & Ductility Airports & Aviation, Asphalt, Bitumen, Mastics, Penetration, Regulatory Authorities, Road Research, Tar, Various The Penetrometer PNR 12 is suitable for measurements according various "Bitumen" methods. Needle-Penetration: To measure the consistency of semi-solid and solid bituminous mixtures. Rod-Penetration: To measure the apparent viscosity (Bitumen No) of filler aggregates used in bituminous mixtures. Cone-Penetration: To determinate the consistency of hot-applied, fuel-resistant joint sealants with or without being immersed in fuel or oil. The Penetration is used to measure the resistance which a material under specified test conditions provides against being pierced by a specifically shaped penetrator. Beside the configuration of the penetrator used, prime importance attaches to such factors as temperature, time and load specified by the different standard methods of test. PNR 12 allows fully automatic measurements on electrically conductive samples, as well as on non-conductive samples with the optional patented Force-Sensor-Plunger. The Surface-Detection Software of the PNR 12 will be activated by Force-Sensor-Plungers. This option will detect the surface of nonconductive samples, even underneath a layer of water, It starts the standardized test sequence and reports the results automatically.
