Compression Gland Cover

Allows measurement of various sample diameters by adjusting hole sizes from 1/4" (0.6 cm) down to 0" simply by rotating the compression ring 360 degrees. This accessory allows for quick and simple measurement without having to "fit" the sample into a sealing gasket. This is particularly useful with non-rounded stems or when speed and efficiency is important.

The Compression Gland Cover is easily removed or exchanged for a standard insert, simply remove the 4 brass screws inside the lid and unscrew the compression ring. This procedure removes the Compression Gland and a standard insert can easily be installed.

The instrument also has four different sized gaskets and inserts available.  It is shipped standard with 1/4 inch gasket and insert.  However, for some other size samples there is also a 1/8, 3/8 and 1/2 inch size gasket and insert available..  In addition there is now a special insert designed for use with Almond leaves.

The Compression Gland comes standard when ordering Model 600, 610, 615 or 1000.  We can also modify an older lid to fit the Compression Gland Cover.

Price: $450.00 retrofit onto used instrument lid.
