The TAS-0120 Semi-Automatic Digital Bitumen Penetrometer is used to determine the penetration of bituminous samples under constant load, time and temperature. The Penetrometer consists of a cast iron base with coarse and fine levelling screws, a digital penetration measurement gauge 0.01 mm readability and a penetration timer unit. Start button of the penetration timer unit is used to release the plunger fitted with the needle to start the 5 seconds test. A water bath (TGE-4000 or TGE-4050, 25±0,1 C) and a
thermometer ( IP38, ASTM 17C or 63C ) required for the test should be ordered separately.
