Skiddometer is an
equipment designed to measure airport runway friction. The apparatus
measures the maximum possible friction produced in the runway instead of
only skidding friction.
Salient Features
- The equipment can be hauled behind an existing work vehicle. Care
should be taken not to hard wire the unit with the vehicle.
- Some skiddometers are provided with Integrated Water System (IWS)
for effective friction testing.
- IWS system can hold 325 gallons of water, that enables large
areas to be tested without having to refill the water source.
Applications
Skiddometer finds application in the following areas:
- Airport Runways
- Aerospace & Defense
- Aeronautical Research
