Ferrite content measurement improves
weld quality
Industry standards in the nondestructive measurement of ferrite content have been surpassed with the Feritscope MP30, manufactured by the Helmut Fischer Group.
Industry standards in the nondestructive measurement of ferrite content have been surpassed with the Feritscope MP30, manufactured by the Helmut Fischer Group This improved model addresses the problems caused by poor welding on duplex stainless steels which leaves structures, such as pressure vessels and pipes, at risk of failure due to vibration and stress

Micro hardness measuring systems offer versatility
The increasingly stringent demands being placed on surface treatment technology has necessitated measuring processes and devices that meet the new requirements
The Feritscope can also reduce the rate of corrosion by providing an accurate ferrite content reading.
Ferrite content can easily be measured on-site with this handheld gauge, which has a range of probes for inaccessible areas.
The Feritscope uses magnetic permeability to measure the ferrite content, where the measurement signal is converted directly into percentage Fe or WRC ferrite numbers and displayed.
The range is 0.1 to 80% Fe or 0.1-110 WRC-FN.
The calibration of the Feritscope MP30 is traceable to internationally approved IIW secondary calibration standards and can be obtained in the UK from Fischer Instrumentation (GB). Request a free brochure from Fischer Instrumentation (GB) ...
