Cement Mortar Permeability Apparatus
Product Code: MSI 2072
The Cement Mortar Permeability Apparatus is a high-precision testing system designed to determine the water permeability of cement mortar and concrete specimens. Measuring fluid permeability is vital for engineers to predict the long-term environmental durability, chemical resistance, and structural life expectancy of concrete structures exposed to hydrostatic pressure.
The apparatus is built around a heavy-duty, multi-cell structural header frame. The standard configuration consists of three independent permeability cells arranged in a space-saving linear layout, allowing technicians to test multiple specimens concurrently to eliminate statistical variance. Each cell is precision-machined to clamp specimens tightly, preventing lateral water bypass and ensuring true cross-sectional water migration under high pressure.

🔬 Working Principle
Prepared mortar or concrete specimens are coated with a specialized sealing compound (like paraffin wax or rubber sleeves) around their sides to prevent lateral water bypass. The specimens are then locked into the heavy steel permeability cells.
Water is introduced into the bottom of the cells, and the high-pressure manifold valves are opened. A steady hydraulic pressure is applied to the bottom face of the samples. Technicians monitor the top face for water breakthrough or log the volume of water passing through the specimen over a set timeframe, allowing them to calculate the exact coefficient of permeability.
💡 Advantages
Triples testing efficiency by accommodating 3 separate samples on a single compact manifold frame.
Guarantees true permeability data by utilizing high-tension boundary seals that stop edge leakage.
Highly durable construction minimizes down-time in aggressive, damp laboratory environments.
Simplifies fluid monitoring with dedicated, easy-to-read pressure dials for each station.
