VertekCone Penetration Testing System (CPT)

SHARE

Vertek offers two lines of “all-in-one” equipment that includes the necessary digital cone penetration testing (CPT) components. Our line of equipment has been strengthened to handle the various sedimentary deposits found across our globe.

We offer standard 1.44 (10cm2) and 1.75 (15cm2) diameter CPT cones with integrated components to measure in-situ: Tip resistance, sleeve friction, and pore pressure. Unlike other cone manufacturers that require add-on modules for seismic, all Vertek cones come standard with built-in seismic capabilities.

Vertek offers various capacities in both 10cm2 and 15cm2 cones, ranging from 2.5 tons to 20 tons.

  • All cones come standard with built-in seismic capabilities.
  • Standard sensors include a tip, sleeve, pore water pressure, seismic geophones (SCPT), inclinometers (x and y), and relative temperature.
  • Vertek digital cones provide higher load capacity and better accuracy than industry standards by decoupling the tip and sleeve load cells and sensing each independently.
  • Noise problems associated with cable length and low voltage signals of analog systems are eliminated because analog-to-digital conversion is preformed downhole.
  • Overload capacity of 150% ensures you can safely push the cone to calibrated capacity without compromising cone integrity.
  • USA-based manufacturing, certified calibration, and repairs.
