     lbf, kgf, kN and N; stress units in PSI or MPa; time units in seconds
     or minutes
⦁   Holds seven different sample types with dimensions for easy test setups
⦁   Stores test data for 90 tests, including test date and time, sample ID
     number, sample area, both peak load and stress, length of test, and average
     rate of load for test documentation
⦁   Prints test results with an optional printer or transfers data USB to PC to
     tabulate test results

The CM-2500 has all of the features you look for in a basic compression testing machine. It is accurate, versatile, and dependable.

The load frame features our wrap-around box construction, with each corner fully welded on both the inside and outside crosshead seams, for the rugged stability needed for accurate and repeatable test results, year after year. The load frame is also protected with our unique baked on, powder-coated painting process, for a durable finish that will also keep it looking good for years to come.

The machine's digital indicator, loading control valve, and hydraulic pump are positioned on the right side of the load frame for easy accessibility, increased productivity, and safer operation by positioning the operator to the side of the load frame opening during testing.

Featuring a superior rate of load control, its unique, quiet running, continuous-duty hydraulic pump and pressure-compensated loading control valve, are manufactured to ISO 9100 international quality standards.

Standard safety features include: steel fragment guard doors on both frame openings and a high-pressure hydraulic safety valve, which prevents the machine from operating beyond its maximum capacity.

Optional accessories include: test platen and spacer sets for testing a wide range of specimen types, a cylinder loading shelf, and heavy-duty machine mounting stand.

Meets ASTM C-39, E-4, and AASHTO T22 specifications.

Warranty is 2 years on parts and labor.

Cylinder Loading Shelf Option

This inexpensive option makes it safer and easier to set up, load, and unload 6" (150 mm) cylinders with pad caps.

The heavy-duty steel shelf features a plastic laminated top so cylinder and retainer rings slide smoothly onto the lower test platen for easy centering in the load frame. The load frame is predrilled for easy installation of shelf. The kit includes mounting shelf and bolts.

Supplied standard with ½ hp electric hydraulic pump. To order a ¾ hp pump option, add "P" suffix to model number. Electrical requirements are 110V, 60 Hz, 1 ph. Please specify 220V, 50/60 Hz.

** Supplied with machine-mounting stand
