Falling Weight Tester Model PIPE Tester

The fallling weight tester tpye “PipeTester” has been developed to perform tests on pipes in accordance with ISO 3127, BS EN 1411, BS EN 744 and similar.
This instrumentis used to determine the resistance against external shock
loading and consist essentially of a downspout (maximum height of 2 metres),
a striker (striker weight max. 16 kg) and a corresponding sample holder
for the testing of pipes up to a diameter of 630 mm. An anti-rebound device
prevent the specimen from a double impact.
