Safety Post Testing
Hydrajaws Safety Post and Foundation Test Equipment is designed for motorway crash-barrier safety posts. Hydraulic pressure is applied to the VRS post, and deflections are recorded while the applied load increases incrementally during the stated test process.
Hydraulic Loading Arrangement
The kit uses a CFC1012 push cylinder, hydraulic pump, connecting two-metre hose, load gauge, male coupler, and cylinder adaptors. Buyers should confirm the required load range, gauge units, connection arrangement, and incremental loading procedure before testing.
Extension and Support Components
A 30-inch extension tube, base plate, tube-extension rod, and slip-lock extension form part of the stated configuration. These components should be checked against post geometry, foundation arrangement, access, reaction support, and required measurement setup.
Storage and Protection
Coupler dust caps and plugs are included for the stated hydraulic connections. The equipment is supplied in a wooden storage box with operating instructions, supporting organized storage and transport of the listed cylinder, pump, extensions, adaptors, hose, and gauge.
Guidance and Procurement
BS 7669-3:1994 is referenced for vehicle-restraint-system installation, inspection, and repair guidance. Confirm the current applicable edition, post type, test method, load increments, deflection measurement, acceptance criteria, calibration, competence, and exact kit supply before use.
FAQs
