Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for static sedimentation tests comprising a plurality of sedimentation cylinders, which are subject to the same mixing conditions, said apparatus comprises: a. A variable number of transparent sedimentation cylinders, the most common being 12; b. Each sedimentation cylinder is located inside a non-intrusive emitter and receiving sensor housing where each housing has an electronic ID card, electronic circuit boards and connection to a control system; c. A support structure containing the sedimentation cylinders and sensor housings which rotates around an axis of rotation; d. Each sedimentation cylinder has a bottom stopper and top stopper; e. Where each bottom stopper of each sedimentation cylinder is mounted on a lateral bar parallel to the rotation axis, by a fixing to the supporting structure; f. Also the sedimentation cylinders are fixed in the supporting structure by a clamping system around the top stopper of each sedimentation cylinder g.
