Positector UTG, ultrasonic wall thickness gages

The PosiTector UTG measures the wall thickness of materials such as steel, plastic and more using ultrasonic technology. Ideal for measuring the effects of corrosion or erosion on tanks, pipes or any structure where access is limited to one side. Multiple echo (UTG M) Thru-Paint models measure the metal thickness of a painted structure without having to remove the coating.

5 MHz dual element transducer with wear resistant PEEK probe tip Automatic V-Path compensation for thin materials
Features Thru‐Paint capability to quickly and accurately measure the metal thickness of a painted structure without having to remove the coating. The most accurate method to measure the remaining wall thickness of a painted structure because it automatically disregards the coating, lowering inspection time and expense. Also ideal for measuring on sandblasted materials or other applications requiring a durable wear face.

5MHz contact probe with wear resistant Alumina probe tip
Multiple Echo technique averages 3 or more echoes for accurate and reliable readings
Most accurate method to measure remaining wall thickness of a painted structure because it automatically disregards the coating, lowering inspection time and expense.
Toggle easily between..
–Multiple Echo mode to eliminate coating thickness, and...
–Single Echo mode to detect pits and flaws, and to increase the measurement range
