LS-PT100A Motorized Bitumen Penetrometer
LS-PT100A Motorized Bitumen Penetrometer is a bitumen penetrometer and penetration test apparatus for ASTM D5, EN 1426, AASHTO T49 workflows. Featuring a patented motorized lift system and an integrated compressor refrigeration unit, the LS-PT100A offers a complete, all-in-one climate-controlled solution (5-40°C) for the ultimate precision in binder characterization.

Motorized Positioning
Patented electrical lift system with adjustable speed delivers precise, repeatable needle-to-sample contact without manual lead-screw inconsistencies.
Integrated Climate
High-performance compressor refrigeration maintains a stable 5°C to 40°C environment without external water baths.
High-Stability Frame
Reinforced 20.0 kg chassis eliminates micro-vibrations for research-grade penetration accuracy.
Shadowless Lighting
Integrated hidden LED illumination ensures clear visibility of the needle and sample without glare.
Advanced Data Ecosystem
Built-in data workflow supports automated logging and standardized reporting for high-throughput labs.
Sub-micron Precision
LVDT-based digital sensing delivers 0.01 mm resolution for ultra-stable measurements.
