System Description<br />

The proper control of entrained air in<br />

concrete is recognized as one of the<br />

most important functions in modern<br />

concrete manufacture. To the concrete<br />

engineer and technician, the Air<br />

Entrainment Meter offers an instrument<br />

<strong>for</strong> use in the testing and designing of<br />

concrete mixes.<br />

The instrument is designed so that the<br />

operating parts <strong>for</strong>m an integral unit. The<br />

container is rigid, thus providing an<br />

accurate device <strong>for</strong> the per<strong>for</strong>mance of<br />

unit weight testing. For convenience, the<br />

tare weight in grams is stamped on the<br />

bottom. When used with the supplied<br />

nomograph, the air meter provides quick<br />
