LS-MPT100 Digital Micro Soil Penetrometer

Configured for CECS 54:93 workflows

LS-MPT100 is a rechargeable handheld penetrometer for rapid checks on cohesive soil in the field or laboratory. Cylindrical and 30-degree cone tips extend the indicated range to 2660 kPa, with live pressure display and peak hold for trial-pit logging, sample description, compaction checks, and preliminary bearing or consistency assessment.

Three Interchangeable Tips

Two cylindrical tips and one cone tip provide different contact areas and penetration depths for a wider range of cohesive-soil consistency.

Digital Reading and Peak Hold

Direct kPa indication and retained peak values simplify repeated field logging compared with a spring scale and sliding witness ring.

Rechargeable Field Instrument

A compact 600 g body and more than five hours of typical operating time support trial pits, trench inspections, sampling campaigns, and laboratory intake checks.

Use Results as Estimates

Pocket penetrometer readings are screening estimates affected by soil structure, moisture, particles, disturbance, and correlation method; they are not a substitute for laboratory strength testing.

Application & Search Guide

Testing Method

Portable in-situ soil testing with CPT, penetrometer, and vane shear instruments

LS-MPT100 Digital Micro Soil Penetrometer is in-situ soil testing equipment for rapid approximate penetration resistance and cohesive-soil screening under CECS 54:93. It supports site-investigation teams that need portable data while keeping screening estimates distinct from final design parameters and laboratory strength results.

Technical FAQ

What is LS-MPT100 Digital Micro Soil Penetrometer used for?

LS-MPT100 Digital Micro Soil Penetrometer is used for portable in-situ soil testing workflows in civil engineering materials laboratories, quality control labs, research programs, and construction material acceptance testing.

Which standards does LS-MPT100 support?
