Dakota Ultrasonics VX Offers

The VX is a hand-held ultrasonic velocity gauge. When measuring materials such as casts, alloys, or plastics, the VX displays the speed of sound (velocity) through the material; thus giving an indication of its consistency. The VX gauge has 2 measuring modes: The Point-to-Point mode, which is simply placing the probe to the material and the gauge will display the velocity at that point. The Scan mode allows the operator to place the probe on the material and then move the probe along the surface; when the probe is lifted from the material, it will then display the fastest velocity the gauge found on the area covered.

Features

  • Resolution of 0.001" (0.01 mm)
  • Multi-function 4.5 digit liquid crystal display with 0.500" numerals, backlit for use in poor light conditions
  • Bar graph indicates stability of reading
  • In rugged metal case, sealed with gaskets suitable for harsh working environment
  • Switch-selected units for inches or mm
  • Factory calibration traceable to NIST & MIL-STD-45662A
  • With 5 year limited warranty

Applications

  • Corrosion & Pitting
  • Tube & Pipe
  • Tanks
  • Boilers
  • Glass
