Application Summary
The SDG 200 is intended primarily for making density measurements on a standard 12 inch lift of soil during
or after compaction. It is designed to measure coarse and fine grained materials common in standard soils used
in civil construction projects. After configuring the gauge with soil properties from a standard particle size
distribution report (ASTM D422) and Proctor test (ASTM D698 and D1557) the gauge will provide reliable and
consistent measurements.
Safety
Every effort has been made to make the Soil Density Gauge SDG 200 convenient to use and inherently safe.
The SDG 200 uses non-nuclear, low-voltage direct current to obtain measurements, therefore, there are no
badges, licensing, storage or transport concerns. Like any instrument, however, the user should exercise care
and common sense in its use to prevent mishaps.
Warning
Do not use the unit on or near electrical wiring.
A potential shock hazard exists if contact is made with the exposed wiring.
Warning
Use care in handling the unit. Personal injury can occur through improper handling.
Take proper care to avoid accidentally dropping the unit.
Warning
Unauthorized disassembly of the unit will void the warranty.
Warning
Shipping the gauge with the batteries inside is not recommended.
Caution
Charging the gauge overnight or unattended is not recommended
Caution
Turn the unit off when not in use and during transport.
Caution
Be sure not to switch standardization plates with other gauges. Check the
Serial Numbers located on the gauge and on the plate to be sure they match.
Temperature: -4° to 104° F (-20° to 40° C)
