5 Description
5.1 Application
The machine is designed to compact fresh concrete in formworks and on even
surfaces.
IREN GV
The machine is protected from damage of the formworks by the rubber seal cap
(GV).
IREN ...k
The machine is especially suited for compacting fresh concrete on even surfaces
with low layer thickness. The short construction (...k) enables the complete im-
mersion of the vibrator head, which results in a more efficient cooling of the vi-
brator head.
IREN ST
The machine is especially suited for better guidance and positioning in areas of
the formwork which are difficult to reach.
IREN lifting point
The machine is especially suited for compacting fresh concrete in work areas
which are inaccessible.
The machine is equipped with an additional steel cable to increase the safety
(higher traction force).
5.2 Functionality
Principle
The machine is an internal vibrator which creates high-frequency vibrations in
the vibrator head.
Concrete is deaerated and compressed in the effective range of the vibrator
head when the vibrator head is immersed into the fresh concrete.
The fresh concrete is simultaneously cooling the vibrator head.
Note: The concrete is being compressed for as long as bubbles of air arise.
