DAKOTA NDT ZX1 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge

Dakota NDT ZX1 & ZX2 Corrosion Thickness Gauges. The ZX Corrosion Thickness Gauge is available in seven different models. Each thickness gauge provides the inspector with increasing functionality - from the entry level Dakota ZX1 Thickness Gauge, to the top of the range Dakota ZX6-DL Corrosion Thickness Gauge. Each Dakota ZX Thickness Gauge has been designed to withstand the harshest environments, made from an extruded aluminium body and is equipped with a LCD screen for improved visibility during sunlight. Producing repeatable and reproducible measurements, the Dakota ZX range is available with a 5 year manufacturer's warranty, giving you peace of mind. The ZX-1 & 2 are basic fixed velocity gauges that require no special training to operate.Calibration is done by simply scrolling to a known material velocity, or selecting a common material from a list of material types in the ZX-2. The gauges were designed and built towithstand the roughest industry conditions, are affordable, and backed by a 5 year limited warranty. If you’re looking for a quality instrument to reliably meet or exceed your application expectations, look no further.
