FAQ
Q1: What standards does the Vicat Apparatus for Cement Consistency and Setting Time comply with?
A1: The Vicat Apparatus for Cement Consistency and Setting Time is designed and manufactured in accordance with relevant Chinese national (GB) and transport industry (JTG) standards, as well as applicable ASTM and AASHTO international standards. A calibration certificate traceable to national standards is provided with each unit.
Q2: How often should the Vicat Apparatus for Cement Consistency and Setting Time be calibrated?
A2: We recommend annual calibration by authorized technicians or by iRoad after-sales service center. For high-frequency laboratory use, semi-annual calibration is advised. The instrument is supplied with a factory calibration certificate.
Q3: What is the lead time and do you provide training?
A3: Standard units are usually shipped within 7-15 working days. Custom configurations may require 20-30 days. iRoad provides on-site installation, commissioning and operator training for major equipment; remote video guidance is available for standard laboratory instruments.
