Sample Splitter (Product Code: SLE/AG/02) is a hopper-fed sample divider used to reduce test samples that are too large in volume to be handled conveniently in aggregate and soil testing laboratories. Site labs and engineering colleges choose it for bulky material, because its 30 litre clam shell hopper takes anything from sand sizes up to 108 mm. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM lab equipment manufacturer in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

The bulk sample is mixed and spread evenly in the clam shell hopper while it is closed. Opening the hopper releases the load in one even stream, and the splitter divides it into two halves, each caught in its own collecting pan. One pan is set aside and the other is passed through again until the portion is about the size the test method asks for. Splitting this way keeps the grading of the smaller portion close to that of the original stockpile, which is far more reliable than scooping material off the surface of a bag.
Colleges setting up a highway or concrete materials course usually buy a splitter early, since sieve analysis, specific gravity and crushing tests all start from a reduced sample. Load the hopper evenly across its full width, and empty both pans completely between passes so that no fines are lost.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this Sample Splitter. The unit is built at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and dispatched from there to laboratories, contractors, dealers and importers. Because you deal with the maker directly, questions about the hopper, the pans or a repeat order are answered by the people who build the splitter. Company background is on the ScienceLab profile page.
Once a bulk sample has been reduced, these items carry the work forward:

What particle sizes can the Sample Splitter handle?
The Sample Splitter handles any material from sand sizes up to 108 mm diameter, so a single unit can reduce fine sand as well as coarse aggregate and crushed stone samples collected from a stockpile or site.
How much material does the Sample Splitter hopper hold?
The clam shell hopper of the Sample Splitter has a capacity of 30 litres. Larger stockpile samples can be reduced in more than one batch, provided every batch is split in the same way.
What is supplied with the Sample Splitter?
The Sample Splitter is supplied complete with two collecting pans, one for each half of the divided sample, so the retained half can be passed through the splitter again straight away.
Will the Sample Splitter rust in a wet site laboratory?
The Sample Splitter is totally cadmium plated for rust protection and very sturdily constructed. Even so, brush out damp material after use and store the unit dry so that the plated finish stays in good condition.
Should I choose the Sample Splitter or the Riffle Sample Divider?
The Sample Splitter suits bulky samples, with its 30 litre hopper and material up to 108 mm, while the Riffle Sample Divider is offered in a range of sizes for smaller portions. If unsure, tell us your material and sample sizes.
Who manufactures the Sample Splitter?
The Sample Splitter is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and is supplied factory-direct to laboratories, contractors, dealers and importers.
Can you supply several Sample Splitters for a project or tender?
Yes. ScienceLab quotes Sample Splitters in quantity for institutions, contractors and dealers across India and international markets; share the number of units and the delivery location for a consolidated quotation from the manufacturer.
