Automated Percolation Tester User Video

The automated percolation tester is used to perform a complete soil percolation test with high precision and minimal user interaction. The primary goal of the device is to ensure that all EMI percolation tests are performed to the standard specified in the EMI Civil Design Guide Section A3.3.1 as consistently as possible. 

This video serves as the user manual for the device and should accompany the User Manual. As such, it does not include all of the design details for the device. Those details can be found in the EMI R&D document 5.01.01.003 Auto-Percolation Tester Design Manual.
