Electrical Density Gauge (EDG)
Name : Electrical Density Gauge (EDG)
The Electrical Density Gauge (EDG) is a nuclear-free alternative for determining the moisture and density of compacted soils used in road beds and foundations. The EDG is a portable, battery-powered instrument capable of being used anywhere without the concerns and regulations associated with nuclear safety.
STANDARD
· ASTM D7698
· Easy-to-use, the EDG can be used as a construction aid to monitor day-to-day compaction operations by providing performance and measurement results highly comparable to those achieved with traditional methods, including the nuclear gauge and/or a sand-cone and oven moisture test combination.
Its user-friendly, step-by-step menu guides the user through each step of the testing procedure and cautions the user when values do not correspond to established curves for the material being tested.
· Features
· Color touch screen
· More accurate data
· New GPS function (Optional)
· USB connection, more convenient for data transmission and software upgrading later
· Software
The software will allow you to communicate effortlessly with your EDG gauges and only requires minimal setup by the user. EDG Software provides a complete solution for the acquisition, storing, and presentation of Job and Soil Model data. EDG Software works in conjunction with Microsoft Excel to present test data in easy-to-read Excel workbook format files, which can be evaluated directly or sent to any computer using Microsoft Excel. Jobs can be grouped together within projects for organization and reporting.
