The permeability cell has pressure points at different levels which are connected to the manometer tubes fixed on a stand with graduated scale. Two constant head permeability cells, formed by an acrylic plexiglass body held between two aluminium anodized end plate, are available:
TP245-03 cell Ø 75 mm, three pressure take-off points. Weight: 3 Kg
TP245-04 cell Ø 114 mm six pressure take-off points. Weight: 7 Kg. When using this cell, two manometer tube stands are required.
