Fits field moisture testing of soils and aggregates where you need a Speedy 2000 calcium carbide pressure tester (L2000 or S2000 vessel) with wet-weight moisture ranges.
Key advantages
- Method — Calcium carbide pressure moisture tester (Speedy 2000 series)
- Models — L2000 (large vessel); S2000 (standard vessel)
- Range — 0–20% wet-weight standard (options 0–5/0–10/0–50%)
- Particle size — Max 20 mm (L2000); 10 mm (S2000)
- Power — None required (mechanical gauge + electronic balance)
Typical applications
- Soils moisture checks referenced by AASHTO/ASTM practices.
- Aggregate and construction materials field moisture.
- Sites needing a portable carbide pressure tester without electrical power.
Selection guide
- Vessel — L2000 vs S2000 for sample size/particle size
- Scale range — 0–20% standard vs 0–5/0–10/0–50% options
- Sample weight — Match vessel/range table
- Case — Carry-case kit needs
Common mistakes
- Using Speedy for wood %WME pin surveys — that is Surveymaster territory.
- Exceeding max particle size for the selected vessel.
- Skipping reagent/sample-weight procedure for the chosen range.
When to RFQ / what to tell us
- Material, particle size, moisture span.
- L2000 vs S2000; range option.
- Quantity and ship-to.

FAQ
Q: L2000 vs S2000? A: L2000 is the large vessel (to 20 mm particles); S2000 is the standard vessel (to 10 mm).
Q: What power is needed? A: None — mechanical gauge with electronic balance.
Q: What should I send for a quote? A: Material/particle size/span, vessel, quantity, ship-to.
