There are many types of pressure-measuring accessories; the main ones are:
- Probes: 44 (AX), 60 (BX) and 74 (NX)
- Tubing: twin or coaxial, 25, 33, 50 or 100 meters length
- Calibration tubes (different diameters depending on the probe used)
- Probe drop rods: 22, 42, 50 and 60 depending on probe used and depth of testing
- Nitrogen cylinder and regulator.
Another key component: the probe’s pressure-measuring sleeves. We offer various types, which can be selected and adapted based on the type of soil being tested. These include (depending on the type of probe used):
- 3-mm rubber pressure-measuring sleeve: low-pressure tests
- 4-mm rubber pressure-measuring sleeve: low-pressure tests
- Metal pressure-measuring sleeve: low- and medium-pressure tests
- HP Fabric-Reinforced Pressure-Measuring Liner: Medium- and High-Pressure Testing
- HP+ Fabric-Reinforced Pressure-Measuring Liner: Medium- and High-Pressure Testing
- DN fabric-reinforced pressure-measuring sleeve: high-pressure testing.
Pressiometric probes consist of various accessories and parts (shoe, rings, nuts, etc.) that can be replaced individually when worn out, so there is no need to replace the entire probe. Similarly, kits for the tubing are also available. We also supply all the necessary accessories to carry out these part replacements quickly and successfully, thereby ensuring the proper functioning of all equipment as a whole.
For heterogeneous soils—such as gravelly, loose, or other types of terrain—where the stability of the walls cannot be guaranteed, a split tube should be used that accommodates the expansion of the probe inserted inside it. Apageo manufactures various split casings—with left- or right-hand threads, standard or half-shell designs—in different diameters: 46/60, 55, or 63 mm for 44-series probes, and 75 mm for 60-series probes. These casings are supplied with split couplings to allow the tubing to pass through and are manufactured with all applicable thread types. Solid driving pipes, known as Menard pipes, are used following the split pipe to ensure the stability of the walls along the entire length of the borehole and to protect the casing.
