Asphalt Paving
For rapid, accurate density and percent air void tests on asphalt pavements, such as highways, airports and parking lots. The MC-1 DR-P Portaprobe complies with ASTM Standard Test Method D2950,
Density of Bituminous Concrete in Place by Nuclear Methods. 

Earth Construction
For compaction control of highways, airports, railway embankments, trench backfill and other earthworks such as dams and foundations. This precision instrument complies with ASTM Standard Test Methods D2922 & D301 7,
Density and Moisture Content of Soil and Soil-Aggregates in Place by Nuclear Methods.

Simplicity of Operation
This state-of-the-art instrument offers a simple to operate but superior alternative to other methods of in-place density and moisture testing. The MC-1 DR-P operator needs minimal Instruction. Each standard count includes a statistical check to insure proper gauge performance.
MC-1 DR-P Portaprobe operation is nearly foolproof. The operator begins the test by pressing START ... In one minute, the 32 character display provides a direct readout of the data in either English or Metric units.

Text Box: FEATURES
• Automatic depth sensing.

• Lightweight and portable.

• Two non-destructive measure positions.

• No ON/OFF control – no warm up time 
required.

• Easy to learn operation - only four keys START, STEP, STANDARD, and MAXIMUM.

• Large character display – easily legible in direct sunlight from a standing position.

• Direct readout of total density, total 
moisture, dry density and % water after each test.

• Automatic statistical check of standard count assures proper operation.

• No battery charging – alkaline D cell pack has over a 2-year life in the field (mounted to the scaler and easy to 
replace)

• When batteries are depleted, as a back-up, the gauge may be operated from a 9V transistor radio battery for 1000 readings.
