For re-bar location, orientation and size to BS 1881 Part 204
Code | LCN943 |
British Standard | BS1881-204 |
Tariff | 902480 90 |
- The Profometer PM-600 is an advanced cover meter for the precise and non-destructive measurement of concrete cover and rebar diameters and the detection of rebar locations using the eddy current principle with pulse induction as the measuring method.
Used for:
Rebar Localisation
Cover Measurement
Diameter Estimation
Data Acquisition
Statistics
Snapshots
- Based on the new generation touchscreen unit, the instrument offers real time control over the measurement procedure directly on site.
- The high-resolution colour display allows best possible measuring and analysis of the statistical data for an entire working day (battery lifetime > 8h).
- The instrument comes along with a Universal Probe including a spot probe especially suited for areas with congested rebar arrangement such as columns, girders and slabs over columns.
Features:
- Visual assistance for scanning speed and signal strength control
- Settings directly accessible on the measurement screen
- Graphical display of measured values and minimum cover set
- Change settings before and after storage
- PM-Link software for downloading saved data to a PC for analysis and export to third party applications
- All-in-one Universal Probe including standard, long range and spot probe
- Spot probe specially for areas with congested rebar arrangements
- Housing specially designed to be used on-site in harsh environments, including carrying strap, integrated stand and sunshield cover
- High resolution colour display
- Battery lifetime of > 8h
- 8 GB Flash memory
- Dual core processor supporting diverse communication and peripheral interfaces
- Future proof investment through direct upgrade possibilities to upcoming Profometer products
Applications:
- Locate rebars before drilling holes
- Measuring the concrete cover depth
- Acceptance inspection of cover after formwork is removed
- Quality assurance in mass production of prefabricated concrete elements
- Rebar grid examination for planned load changes on the structure
- Statistical evaluation of cover according to DBV (German Concrete and Construction Association)
Locate Mode:
With the Locate Mode you can precisely detect the rebar location and direction as well as measure the cover and the rebar diameter.
- Visual assistance for speed and signal strength control
- Settings directly accessible on the measurement screen
- Spot Probe specially for areas with congested rebar arrangements
- Automatically detects inclined rebars
Statistics & Snapshot Views:
- The statistics and snapshot views allow comprehensive review of the measured data directly on the screen.
- The statistics view presents a graphical overview of the distribution of cover measurements. The snapshot view shows cover for each rebar with the diameter displayed as a number.
- Graphical display of measured values and minimum cover set
- Easy inspection of the measured values directly on the screen
- Change settings before and after storage
- Reopen stored files to continue measurements
- Export the data to a PC via the PM-Link software
