BUILT FOR PRECISION

The load frame of the F-25EX is manufactured from structural steel angles with top and bottom crossheads of solid steel plate. The hydraulic cylinder assembly is mounted to the top crosshead, with force being applied in a downward direction. This design eliminates buildup of foreign material around the piston cylinder area. The machine has a 6 inch diameter power piston. Hydraulic pressure is supplied to the power piston assembly by a two-stage pump. The hydraulic control system is comprised of a single control valve.

GREAT FOR FIELD OR LAB USE

The F-25EX is designed to be placed on a ﬂ oor, used in the ﬁ eld, or it can be bolted to a benchtop. As a Field Model, the F-25EX is compact, extremely rugged, and portable. It’s an excellent choice for testing at the jobsite.

The Best Seller becomes a Laboratory Model when the optional stand is added. The stand raises the controls to an ergonomic operating level. The base of the stand has bolt holes for ﬂ oor mounting.

CYLINDER SPLITTING ASSEMBLY

This test, also known as the Brazilian cylinder splitting test, is performed with the cylinder placed on its side.

CUBE

The F-25EX is used to test cylinders and cubes, as well as other specimens.

LABORATORY MODEL

F-25EX morphs into a Laboratory Machine with the addition of an optional stand. The base has bolt holes for floor mounting.

PIPE TESTER FRAME

FORNEY manufactures a Pipe Tester frame to any requirement and customers often make their own.

PIPE TESTER KIT

The Pipe Tester Kit consists of a steel weatherproof cabinet which houses the digital indicator, ¾ hp pump and 5-gallon reservoir. Included with all kits are hydraulic ram and hoses and mounting cylinders. Lower capacity machines typically use a single ram, but a double ram is generally used for capacities of 200,000 lbf and higher. This pipe tester kit is easy to retroﬁ t.

The FORNEY High Capacity Series was speciﬁ cally designed for

research and production testing of high-strength materials. Available

in two frame types, both have the highest level of rigidity which will

virtually eliminate frame elongation as a test parameter. They are ideal

for research labs.

HIGH CAPACITY TESTER LT-704

The four post design allows a variety of sample sizes and shapes to be tested and has the ﬂ exibility to test blocks in prism as well as specimens of unusual height. The posts are made of High Grade Steel. It is designed for ﬂ oor level installation, eliminating the need for costly pit foundations. The four-post frame is open on all sides for specimen inspection and easy cleanup. The compression platen is positioned waist high to make loading of heavy specimens easier for a single operator.

High Capacity

Testers

HIGH CAPACITY TESTER LT-806

This machine features a distortion-resistant load frame which has solid steel crossheads welded to solid steel side members, forming a massive one-piece load frame. All the load frames in this series are open front and rear for quick loading and unloading of test specimens. The platen is conveniently positioned waist high and safety metal mesh doors ensure operator safety.

1,500,000 lbf

(32)

CREEP TESTER

This custom designed 100,000 lbf capacity tester was designed to hold ﬁ ve 6x12 inch cylinders stacked longitudinally. The FORNEY design, with a range of 22,500 to 100,000 lbf, closely simulates the anticipated loading age conditions so that accurate long-term measurements can be recorded. Deformation of the cylinders is monitored throughout the test via a mechanical bourdon type gauge.

Tie Tester for prestressed concrete railroad ties. Note the separate loading mechanism.

SPEEDLOADER – ROTARY

For production-line speediness, the Rotary Speedloader allows the operator to load a specimen while the current specimen is being tested. Designed to be used with the FX Series and the unique FORNEY Beer Mug (See page 76)

HIGH PRODUCTION TEST CELL

This FORNEY innovation facilitates speedy testing of samples and automated removal of debris—perfect for the facility where high productivity is a primary focus.

Special

Testers

FORNEY engineers will adapt any machine to meet a speciﬁ c need.

Working with professionals in Civil Engineering, DOTs, Univeristies,

Manufacturing Sectors and Government Agencies, creative yet practical

and cost effective solutions to complex problems happen every day.

REBAR WITH T-CAP TESTER

This custom designed machine was adapted from a FORNEY Universal Tester with Extended Frame in order to test Rebar with T-Caps in tension. Working with a customer, the FORNEY engineers knew from the start that maintaining frame rigidity would be extremely important. Taking a normal frame and doubling its overall height requires more than simply stretching the drawings—a host of calculations goes into creation of a custom-designed machine.

R-VALUE (STABILOMETER) TESTER

This custom designed 60,000 lbf capacity tester was speciﬁ cally designed with larger-than-standard opening to accommodate a Stabilometer. It is an economical solution to a common need.

EN 12390-3 679 12390-5 1340:4 12390-6

DR500

The DR500 has a six-digit display and one channel. A tough and sturdy unit, easy to learn.

ANALOG GAUGE

For site conditions too harsh for electricity.

AUTOMATIC CONTROLLER

This Tester is shown with the FORNEY Automat-ic mounted directly to the machine frame. It runs automatically from the beginning of the test until specimen failure. Results are viewed on screen or they can be downloaded via RS232.

Automatic Systems

FORNEY Automatic Systems allow true “one touch” operation. Settings are entered on the keypad or on a PC. The testing machine takes over and runs the test, automatically calculating the results at the end. Each test is the same. Automatic repeatability really does give MORE accurate testing and data management than a human operator.

DR500

• Easy to Use • Economical

The DR500 is famous for its stable, drift-free readout and accurate calibration. The single-channel, 6-digit display offers a 16-point calibration feature. Accurate: ±0.5% from 1% to full capacity. The DR500 will display live load with peak load captured at the end of each test.

Analog Gauges

Many test sites are too harsh for electric digitals. FORNEY has analog gauges in single and dual-gauge versions with capacities to match the Testers.

Remember that older compression frames can be

retroﬁ tted with any new, up-to-date digital indicator.

724 346 7400 • 800 367 6397

FORNEY has a digital indicator for every application and price range.

Options range from simple function, easy-to-use “black box” types to

sophisticated PC-based digital systems.

Digitals

TESTPILOT

FORNEY’s most versatile. Four channels allow two machine frames to be run with one digital. It’s ideal for retroﬁ tting to your existing frame or when using a combo.

CO-PILOT

Two channels and easy operation. Great for a lab that needs precision, but wants to keep an eye on budget.

PLUG & PLAY

FORNEY’s Co-Pilot and TestPilot are sophisticated instruments, yet easy to use. The Power Connector, Computer Connector (RS232), LVDT and Transducer are all conveniently located.

TestPilot

• Two Load Channels and Two Strain Channels • Multiple Language Options

• Download to a printer or to any PC

The TestPilot is a four-channel system that includes two selectable load channels to capture load data from one or two load frames; and two additional channels to capture data for strain and/or displacement commonly used when collecting data from compressometers or extensometers or other LVDTs.

Co-Pilot

• Two Load Channels • English and Spanish

• Download to a printer or to any PC

The Co-Pilot has the same look and feel as the TestPilot and it is a good choice for those who prefer to keep it simple. It has all the features needed for everyday testing.

The Press-Aire

™

_{Meter is the industry’s most popular kit for testing entrained air.}

Whether going into the Ready Mix truck or coming down the chute, it gives fast

results. Always accurate. The kit contains everything needed to perform the test

and — very importantly — to keep the unit in calibration.

It measures the air content in fresh mix concrete. The test procedure equalizes a

known volume of air in the pressure chamber, with the unknown value of entrained

air in the concrete-ﬁ lled base. The amount of air entrained is then read on the

meter’s gauge as the direct percentage (to the nearest 0.1%) of air entrained in the

concrete. The test is based on Boyle’s law. Also known as “Type B”. See Full

Instruc-tions or refer to ASTM.

The air meter unit consists of 2 main parts: the base (measuring chamber) and the

cover assembly. The cast aluminum base has machine-ﬂ anged rims. The interior

surfaces of the base and surfaces of rims, ﬂ anges and other component parts are

machined to facilitate frequent water clean-up. The unit is designed for easy

disas-sembly in order to replace worn or damaged parts in the ﬁ eld.

Repair Program

The FORNEY Repair Program includes cleaning the vessel by sand-blasting,

re-calibrating the gauge and general cleaning of all parts - for a ﬂ at-rate labor

charge. (Replacement parts are charged at list price.) In fact, the Repair Program

is available for all brands of Air Meter. FORNEY also rebuilds compression

test-ing machines, concrete test hammers, recordtest-ing thermometers, hydraulic pumps,

valves and digital readouts.

The FORNEY Repair Department has a full-time staff of professional repair

per-sonnel with a large inventory of repair parts. Turn-around time is very fast.

Some-times customers prefer to do their own repairs and maintenance. FORNEY has all

the Air Meter Parts you need in stock, ready to ship. Keeping a spare Super Pump

or an extra set of O-rings can save down-time.

Call for shipping instructions or simply ship to the Hermitage, PA or Denver CO

factory. See Page 7 for full details.

(51)

Super Pump

The Super Pump is an important part of the Air Meter. It must be properly

maintained to prevent air leakage. O-rings on the top of the pump and on the

inside seal the unit. When the O-rings deteriorate, air can leak into the chamber

and or debris can enter the pump. Some customers prefer the time-saving

conve-nience of simply replacing the Super Pump, but FORNEY also sells a handy

Gasket Repair Kit.

The Super Pump (LA-0316-22) adds air to the sealed air chamber. Once the initial

pressure is reached, the air is released into the vessel containing the concrete and

the percentage of entrained air can be determined.
