PROOVEit ASTM 1202, ASTM1760 & NT BUILD 492

The PROOVE´it system is used to evaluate the resistance of concrete to the ingress of chloride ions in three ways:
- By determining the total electrical charge that passes through
a saturated concrete specimen by applying an electrical
potential across the specimen in accordance with AASHTO T
277 or ASTM C1202. This is known as the “Coulomb Test” or
the “Rapid Chloride Permeability Test (RCPT).”
- By measuring the penetration depth of chloride ions, after an
electric potential has been applied to the specimen in
accordance with Nordtest Build 492 to determine the “Chloride
Migration Coefficient,” which can be used to estimate the
chloride diffusion coefficient for service life calculations.
- By measuring the current passing through a saturated
concrete specimen and determining the bulk conductivity in
accordance with ASTM C1760.

Hello, We have recently purchased a unit of equipment with 3 cells. I am currently working on running our first test, but I have encountered two issues. Firstly, I did not find the Silicon that was supposed to come with the equipment. Secondly, I am also unsure about the location of the software. Can you kindly advise me on these two concerns? Thank you.

What kind of silicon is used between the sample and the ribber exactly?

Hello, How much minimum vacuum pressure to be maintained in desiccator?

hi...may I ask, what is the reason why we shouldn't fill it up to the bottom of the fill hole? normally in our lab i saw them, they filling it up to that level. thanks,.

Hello Mark, it is because we don't want the reservoir to spill liquid out once the temperature probe is introduced.

This machine is for both rcpt & cm test???

Can this be used for NT Build 443?

The background music is unnecessary and gave me a headache.
