DAKOTA NDT ZX3 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge

The Dakota NDT ZX3 Corrosion Thickness Gauges Z-302-0003 with T-102-2000 Probe accurately measures wall thickness and the extent of corrosion of all metals, ceramics, glass and most rigid plastics - from only one side! It can measure thickness up to 36 inches (915 mm), depending upon the material and transducer. The Dakota NDT ZX3 Ultrasonic Wall Thickness Gauge Z-302-0001 / Z-302-0003 with T-102-2000 Probe combines the best features of the ZX2 allowing the operator to select from 8 preset materials as well as program 2 custom material velocities, plus allows free adjustment of the velocity as desired and allows the end-user to calibrate to a sample of known thickness where the velocity is automatically calculated. Additionally, to optimize linearity over a wide range, the user can perform a 2 point calibration to two samples of known thickness. The optimal velocity is automatically calculated to provide the highest accuracy and linearity between the low and high calibration points. The Dakota NDT ZX3 Ultrasonic Wall Thickness Gauge Z-302-0003 with T-102-2000 Probe can be used in a Single Thickness Reading mode or in a Scan mode , where the probe is dragged over a large measuring area. The minimum thickness reading recorded during the "scan" will be displayed. The ZX3 probe is waterproof and can be submerged in water. The gauge is impact-resistant and environmentally sealed (IP65) to provide trouble-free operation under the toughest field conditions.

The Dakota NDT ZX5 Wall Thickness Gauge Z-303-0001 accurately measures wall thickness and the extent of corrosion of all metals, ceramics, glass and most rigid plastics - from only one side! It can measure thickness up to 36 inches (915 mm), depending upon the material and transducer. The Dakota Ultrasonics ZX5 Ultrasonic Wall Thickness Gauge Z-303-0001 is supplied with a USB-C port for transfer of a single data value to a PC or desired data collection program. It does NOT have any built-in memory. The ZX5 permits the operator to select from 8 preset materials as well as program 2 custom material velocities, plus allows free adjustment of the velocity as desired and allows the end-user to calibrate to a sample of known thickness where the velocity is automatically calculated. Additionally, to optimize linearity over a wide range, the user can perform a 2 point calibration to two samples of known thickness.

The gauge is impact-resistant and environmentally sealed (IP65) to provide trouble-free operation under the toughest field conditions.

The Dakota NDT ZX5-DL Data Logging Ultrasonic Wall Thickness Gauge  Z-304-0003 with USB Output accurately measures wall thickness and the extent of corrosion of all metals, ceramics, glass and most rigid plastics - from only one side! It can measure thickness up to 36 inches (915 mm), depending upon the material and transducer. Incorporates built-in datalogging for 10,000 values with 250 readings per batch, up to 40 separate batches with USB Output. Data can be transferred into any program in ".csv" format or viewed in Datacomm Software (free download).
