About Water Retention Test Apparatus

Water Retention Test Apparatus: MTCT-25


Water retention testing is used to determine the ability of mortars and plasters to retain water under suction. The test results are used to determine compliance and specifications. The results obtained from the test method do not necessarily indicate the degree of water retention when used with masonry units, since the amount of water absorbed by the unit depends on the rate of absorption of the masonry unit. The water retention apparatus is used in specification tests of masonry cement and physical testing of quicklime and hydrated lime. The unit incorporates a vacuum regulator and gauge system as opposed to using a mercury manometer and relief column. The bleeding rate apparatus is used to determine the rate and bleeding capacity of cement paste and mortar by direct and continuous procedure.

Technical Specification

  • Displacement gauge- indicate the vertical displacement
  • Top plate-fix displacement gauge
  • Base plate-place ceramic disk and collect water
  • Water supply tank-
  • Deminerlized water
  • Vacuum generator-generate vacuum




Robust Construction and Reliable Performance

Crafted from stainless steel or aluminum, the apparatus offers medium hardness and corrosion resistance, enhancing longevity even in high-humidity (up to 95% RH) laboratory settings. Its thermostatically controlled water bath ensures consistent temperatures from ambient to 60C, vital for repeatable cement testing outcomes.


Precision in Water Retention Analysis

Capable of immediate response and high accuracy (1%) with a measurement resolution of 0.1%, this apparatus allows precise determination of water retention rates for cement specimens. The analog graduated scale displays results clearly, enabling evaluators to achieve dependable and consistent data.

FAQs of Water Retention Test Apparatus:


Q: How is the Water Retention Test Apparatus used during cement testing?

A: The apparatus is used to measure the water retention capability of cement samples by placing a specimen in the nickel-plated mesh holder, immersing it in the thermostatically controlled water bath, and following the manual operation steps prescribed for the Le Chatelier Flask method.

Q: What are the benefits of the corrosion-resistant construction?

A: The stainless steel or aluminum body provides medium hardness and resistance to corrosion, ensuring the apparatus remains durable and maintains accurate performance under frequent use in humid laboratory conditions.

Q: When should this apparatus be employed in the cement testing process?

A: It is typically used during the water retention assessment phase, a crucial step for determining the quality and consistency of cement before further processing or approval for construction projects.

Q: Where can the Water Retention Test Apparatus be installed?

A: This device is designed for benchtop installation, making it suitable for laboratory environments in research institutions, manufacturing plants, or quality control departments specializing in cement testing.

Q: What is the process for measuring water retention using this device?

A: To measure water retention, place a cement specimen in the sample holder, use the supplied funnel and graduated beaker for water management, set the bath temperature as needed, and monitor retention via the analog graduated scale until results stabilize.

Q: Which included accessories assist with the testing procedure?

A: Accessories such as the funnel, glass plate, and graduated beaker facilitate specimen preparation, water handling, and precise measurement throughout the cement testing process.

Q: What advantage does thermostatic temperature control provide?

A: Thermostatic temperature control ensures the water bath remains at the desired temperature, minimizing variability and enabling accurate, repeatable retention measurements for dependable quality analysis.
