Description

any dissolved air in the water may lead to errors in pore pressure readings. De-aired water is an essential requirement where B Value needs to be measured. The MTM de-aired water system provides a rapid means of removing dissolved gases from Water, at a much higher rate than through conventional heating/boiling methods. It consists of a holding tank, which can be evacuated using either a vacuum pump or a water-powered aspirator. Water, is drawn into the tank where it is agitated violently by a JB rotating impeller, causing cavitation, nucleation and the rapid expulsion of the dissolved Air. It can also be used with other fluids to remove dissolved gasses.
