Tritex develops ultrasonic thickness gauges

A Tritex NDT product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 24, 2008

Tritex NDT has developed a range of triple-echo ultrasonic thickness gauges.

They are suitable for measuring metal thickness to check for corrosion on pipelines, storage tanks and other industrial applications where corrosion occurs.

Tritex Multigauges are designed for robustness, simplicity of use and accuracy.

The range includes the Multigauge 5500, designed for hands-free use when climbing on staging, scaffolding or when accessing large storage tanks by rope.

The Multigauge 5600 has been developed for most common thickness-gauging applications on pipelines.

A keypad allows operator interface, while the bright graphical LCD display gives detailed information such as echo strength, probe type and measurement units.

The moulded soft rubber surround feels comfortable, looks good and provides extra protection against knocks and scrapes.

All probes have IPR (intelligent probe recognition), which automatically adjusts settings in the gauge at the same time as transmitting recognition data - the result is a perfectly matched probe and gauge for enhanced performance.

The AMVS (automatic measurement verification system) ensures only true measurements are displayed, even on the most heavily corroded metals.

Tritex Triple Echo also significantly reduces preparation time, as it eliminates the need to remove surface coatings - just the metal is measured.

In developing these gauges, Tritex have respected the environment by omitting hazardous substances and materials in all products and complying with the ROHS and WEEE directives.
