Permeability and Triaxial Shear
Step 3. Select Utilities for Panel
Selection of proper permeability/triaxial support equipment is es-
sential for ensuring proper panel operation and accurate results.
DGSI panel setups require a suitable deairing tank, vacuum
pump, compressed air and accessories for proper operation.
Clean, dry air and vacuum sources are strongly recommended
to maintain consistent performance. Consider adding a vacuum
pump water trap kit (G-39620), air dryer w/oil extractor (G-420),
and a lter regulator (G-41020) to maximize panel efciency.
Vacuum Pumps
Models G-400 and G-405 are
designed for laboratory distillation,
ltration, degassing, vacuum deposi-
tion and as roughing pumps in high
vacuum systems.
The relatively low pump operating
speeds and large oil reservoirs ensure long and trouble-free op-
eration. Both pumps are mounted on rectangular steel base plates
and have V-belts and guards. They are supplied with a quart of oil.

Deairing Water Tank
The chamber is 6-in dia. by 16-in high
and is made from clear, cast acrylic.
The head and base are anodized
aluminum and are connected by
stainless steel tie rods. The head has
two ttings, one to allow a tube to pass
through to the bottom of the chamber
for lling and extracting water, and the
other to allow connection to a vacuum
pressure source.

Nold Water Deaerator
The self-contained Nold deairing system
deairs six liters of water to less than 0.5 ppb
dissolved oxygen in 4 min. It operates by
mechanical agitation with the application of
a vacuum. The agitation / vacuum system is
signicantly more efcient than conventional
methods using heat-boiling methods. The
system uses a 0.02 hp electric motor an
is great for labs that have to perform tests
quickly. Dimensions: 7.5 in x 7.5 in x 20 in
(19 x 19 x 51 cm).
