Concrete Test Hammer - SilverSchmidt

 

The SilverSchmidt ST/PC is the first integrated concrete test hammer featuring true rebound value and unmatched repeatability.  
Two factors contribute to the improved performance of this concrete test hammer over its predecessors: 

  • Velocity based detection of the rebound quotient

  • The lightweight hybrid design of the impact plunger is made from aerospace alloy, matched to the elastic properties of the concrete and equipped with a hardness steel cap

 

Features

  • The SilverSchmidt ST/PC concrete test hammer combines a high measurement accuracy with an unmatched repeatability.

  • The rebound value requires no angular correction

  • The concrete test hammer offers customer conversion curves for a wide range of compressive concrete strengths, including low fc (<10 N/mm2, 1’450 psi) and high strength concrete (up to 100 N/mm2, 14’500 psi)

  • A large number of measurement points can be easily collected by the concrete test hammer and automatically evaluated according to statistical data

  • The concrete test hammer offers automatic conversion to the required measurement unit (MPa, N/mm2, kg/cm2, psi)

Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity - Pundit Lab

 

The Pundit Lab is an ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) test instrument which is used to examine the quality of concrete. It features online data acquisition, waveform analysis and full remote control of all transmission parameters. Along with the traditional transit time and pulse velocity measurement, the ultrasonic test equipment Pundit Lab offers path length measurement, perpendicular crack depth measurement and surface velocity measurement. Optimized pulse shaping gives greater transmission range at lower voltage levels. This, coupled with automated combination of the transmitter voltage and the receiver gain, ensures an optimum received signal level, guaranteeing accurate and stable measurements. An integrated waveform display allows manual triggering of the received waveform.

 

Features

  • Integrated waveform display

  • Remote control: A USB connection and the Pundit Link application allow full remote control of all features of the ultrasonic test equipment Pundit Lab.

  • Open interface: full remote control of the instrument is also possible with third party software

  • Direct data logging on the PC

  • Multiple Power Supply Options: the ultrasonic test equipment Pundit Lab runs on battery supply, mains supply via AC adaptor and can also be powered from a PC via the USB connection.

Wide range of transducers: The ultrasonic test equipment Pundit Lab supports a wide range of transducers from 24 kHz up to 500 kHz, making it suitable not only for concrete and rock, but also for other materials such as graphite, ceramics, woods, etc. Exponential transducers for rough surfaces and shear wave transducers for estimation of dynamic modulus of elasticity complete the portfolio.

Moisture Meter - Hygropin

 

Excess moisture in concrete can be fatal to a floor covering installation. To prevent mildew and major damage, the flooring industry requires smart solutions to check surfaces for moisture prior to installing floor coverings or coatings.

The moisture meter Hygropin offers the perfect solution to identify, test and monitor moisture in concrete. Due to the small and fast moisture sensors of the humidity meter, diagnosing moisture according to ASTM F2170-09 is quicker and easier than ever before. The relative humidity test requires placing a measuring sleeve at a specific depth. This can be done either by drilling a hole or by pre-installing cast holes in fresh concrete. This moisture meter provides the smallest available sensor on the market, minimizing damage to the surface and greatly reducing the installation efforts required to obtain accurate sub-surface moisture readings.

 

Features

  • Depending on the settings this moisture meter is able to display relative humidity, temperature and calculated psychometric parameters.

  • Fast measuring time

  • Highly integrated sensor with only 5 mm / 0.3” diameter 

  • Moisture meter shows trend indicators for each parameter

  • The two independent sensors channels of the moisture meter can measure ambient and concrete characteristics simultaneously.

 

Rebar Detector and Covermeter - Profoscope

 

The Profoscope is a versatile, fully-integrated rebar detector and cover meter with a unique real-time rebar visualization allowing the user to actually “SEE” the location of the rebar beneath the concrete surface to a maximum depth of 180 mm. This is coupled with rebar-proximity indicators and optical and acoustical locating aids. Rebar diameter can also be estimated within the specified testing range. The Profoscope combines these unique features in a compact, light device that allows the user to operate this rebar detector with one hand making the task of locating rebars a simple and efficient process. In addition, Proceq’s rebar detector convinces through its intuitive user interface making rebar detection easy

 

Features

  • A rebar detector with real-time visualization of the rebars beneath the instrument

  • Visual indication of rebars in close proximity

  • The Profoscope is a rebar detector with the ability to identify the mid-point between rebars as well as the orientation of rebars

  • Optical and acoustical indication of rebar location and minimum cover alert

  • This rebar detector offers neighboring bar correction

  • Regional settings (metric, imperial)

  • Cordless and single handed operation

  • Switchable display backlight for dark environments

  • A rebar detector with icon-based language independent menus

  • Start-up test kit allows user to familiarize him/herself with all functions in a comfortable environment, wasting no time on site
