DeFelsko PosiTector® 200 Coating Thickness Gage
PosiTector® 200 Features
Non-destructively measures a wide variety of applications using proven ultrasound technology. Measures coating thickness over wood, concrete, plastics, composites and more. Advanced models measure up to 3 individual layer thicknesses in a multi-layer system and features a graphic readout for detailed analysis of the coating system. Proven non-destructive ultrasonic technique conforms to ASTM D6132 and ISO 2808 and SSPC PA9.
The PosiTector® 200 was designed for use in industrial environments. Now with an impact-resistant Lexan® display and shock-absorbing rubber holster the PosiTector® 200 is more rugged and durable than ever before.
All Gages include probe, precision plastic shims, protective rubber holster with belt clip, couplant, 3 AAA batteries, instructions, nylon carrying case with shoulder strap, Certificate of Calibration traceable to NIST, two (2) year warranty.
