Water penetration tester - vertical for the wall
Water penetration tester - vertical for the wall
Single water penetration tester for vertical surfaces to determine water penetration according to Prof. Karsten (Wassereindringung nach Prof. Karsten). A test tube is attached to the building material with the help of the Plastellin. Now, depending on the time, the amount of water absorbed is measured. To stop the time, we recommend using the timer function of your smartphone.Instructions for water penetration tester (PDF, 0.8 MB) (Anleitung zu Wassereindringprüfer (PDF, 0,8 MB))
