The Dakota ZX-5 Wall Thickness Gauge 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 ZX-5 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 ZX-5 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 optimal velocity is automatically calculated to provide the highest accuracy and linearity between the low and high calibration points.

The TI-25DLX 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 ZX-5 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.

Features

  • User can select from 8 preset materials as well as program 2 custom material velocities
  • Calibrate to a sample of known thickness which automatically calculates the optimal acoustic velocity
  • 2-Point Calibration to optimize linearity over a wide measurement range, automatically calculates the optimal acoustic velocity
  • Scan mode, 100 readings/sec. Probe is slid over a large measuring area, the minimum thickness during the "scan" will be displayed
  • Hi/Low Alarm Limits with Visual Indicator of Out of Tolerance Readings
  • Adjustable GAIN in 5 steps to fine tune the gauge for use on challenging materials or applications
  • Special-purpose probes are offered for a variety of applications (1 to 10 MHz)
  • The extruded aluminum housing is impact-resistant and environmentally sealed (IP 65)
    to provide trouble-free operation under the toughest field conditions
  • For underwater surveying, an optional 50 ft (15 meter) underwater probe/cable is available
  • High visibility LCD Display is readable in all lighting conditions and temps as low as 22 °F (-30 °C)
  • LCD shows Thickness Value, Velocity Setting, Gain Setting, Stability & Battery Indicators, Scan Mode, Zero, units and stored data
  • Single value data output via USB port
  • Optional Bluetooth Output
  • Selectable Backlight ON/OFF/AUTO
  • 5 Year Warranty, CE-Certified and Made in USA
  • User-selected Manual or Auto Zero of Transducer
  • Switch-selected units for inches or mm with Resolution of 0.001 inch (0.01 mm)
  • Includes NIST Traceable Calibration Certificate
