    Then slightly moisten the inner surfaces of the test pot with a moistened cloth or sponge.
  • Page 15 For the 0.5; 0.75-litre and 1-litre TESTING air entrainment meter: Adjust by making one complete turn of the hooks of the clamps. For the 5-litre,7-litre and 8-litre TESTING air entrainment meters: In making precision adjustment of the quick-release latches, one complete turn of the clamp hooks can often be too much.
  • Page 16 13. Now note the apparent air entrainment reading (A1) of the fresh mortar or fresh cement in percent. 14. After the testing is finished, slowly open both of the two ball shut-off valves. This will allow the pressure to be released from the test pot.

For practical reasons, it is not necessary to apply the aggregate correction factor when you use normal and dense aggregate (G = 0).
  • Page 18: Checking And Calibrating The Air Entrainment

    This additional air volume will compensate for the loss of air volume during testing of the air entrainment (this loss of air volume is due to the technical design of the device). The initial pressure that applies to each device has already been set and marked by the red marking pointer during factory testing, before each air entrainment meter is shipped to its users.

    At the same time, tap with your finger gently against the dial of the pressure gauge until the pointer comes to rest. Results of testing for the initial pressure The following three test results are possible: If the black pressure-gauge pointer moves to 0 %, then the position of the red marking pointer is correct (for more details, please see Section 4.3).
  • Page 20: Calibration

    • To calibrate the 1-litre TESTING air entrainment meter, you will need to take 100 g of water as test volume from the water-filled meter. This corresponds to 10 % of the total water content of the test pot (total filling = 1000 g, which is 1 litre = 1000 cm³...
  • Page 21: Continuation Of The Calibration

    8 litre; model: TESTING 2.0334 • To calibrate the 5-litre TESTING air entrainment meter, you will need to take 250 g of water as test volume from the water-filled meter. This corresponds to 5 % of the total water content of the test pot (total filling = 5000 g of water, which is 5 litres =5000 cm³).
