09.03 Hauben water permeameter

The Hauben water permeameter apparatus is a laboratory test method for establishing the coefficient of permeability or hydrologic conductance of water (vertically) through an undisturbed water-saturated soil sample. The method is suitable for fine-grained soil, especially silt and clay. The principle of the measurement is based on the ‘Falling Head Method’. A head of water is superimposed on the undisturbed water-saturated soil sample. The water will flow through with a certain speed per unit time.
  • Easy manual operation;
  • Proven accurate measurement principle;
  • Efficient multi sample handling using the fast-exchange sample holder;
  • Up to 15 samples per container;
  • Sample sizes, Ø 60x56 h 40.5 mm (optional: Ø 53x50 h 51 mm);
  • Excellent price-quality ratio;
  • Developed in cooperation with Christian-Albrechts University, Kiel.
