VJ Tech are proud to announce the launch of the Dual Automatic Pressure Controller which makes full use of the technological advances in Wi-Fi, USB and touchscreen communication over recent years.

The Dual Automatic Pressure Controller (Dual Automatic Pressure Controller) is specifically designed for Triaxial testing in a soil laboratory. It provides two independent channels for Pressure control (each one up to 1000kPa and with their own Volume measurement), enabling both Cell and Back Pressure to be controlled from a single piece of equipment with a small footprint for more efficient use of laboratory space. Fully automated Triaxial testing can be carried out using an Automatic Solenoid Valve connected to the Dual Automatic Pressure Controller from the Back Pressure valve. 

It is controlled remotely from a PC or laptop running our renowned Clisp Studio software, either using a USB, RS232 or remotely using an optional 7" touchscreen colour display via Wi-Fi.

Pressure and Volume control can easily be carried out and the current readings of the two channels displayed during testing. The Dual Automatic Pressure Controller is factory calibrated before delivery and the settings can be read into Clisp Studio before initial use. Details of any subsequent re-calibration can be written back to the Dual Automatic Pressure Controller for re-use.
