Rapid Chloride Permeability Test RCPT

UTC-1200 Series Rapid Chloride Permeability Test (RCPT) Equipment

The UTC-1200 Series RCPT Equipment is an advanced solution designed to evaluate the resistance of concrete samples to chloride ion penetration. This state-of-the-art testing system is compliant with ASTM C 1202 and ASTM C 1760 standards, providing reliable and accurate permeability ratings for concrete.

Key Features

• Comprehensive Testing:
  Measures the permeability of 100 mm diameter concrete samples using a 3.0% salt solution and 0.3 N sodium hydroxide solution with a maintained 60 V DC voltage.
• Accurate Results:
  Equipped with four cells and PT-100 sensors for precise temperature monitoring during tests. The charge passed through the sample is recorded to determine a qualitative permeability rating.
• Advanced Cells:
  Two cell options are available:
  • UTC-1210 Standard Cell: Ideal for regular testing needs.
  • UTC-1220 Cell with Cooling Fins: Designed for applications requiring stable temperatures.
    Both options include spacer disks and rubber gaskets for secure sample placement.
