The
Mini R-Meter is a
rugged digital
hand-held field instrument for finding
the location and depth of reinforcement bars in place.
The
Mini R-Meter
is light
weight and inexpensive, and an
easy to use
unit to locate rebar.
Rebar detection of up to 10" (250mm) can be accomplished when locating
large diameter rebar. An easy to read display and a 4 hr battery life are just a few advantages that make the Mini R-Meter one of the most advanced hand
held units in the field today. The sensor design allows the end user to
quickly and
accurately
locate and determine concrete cover in corners or hard to reach areas.
The system allows the user to select between Imperial and Metric units,
and the data can be saved in the instrument for posterior uploading to
a computer. The data is saved in the system with the date and time of
the record to help identify
prior test
taken. The Mini R-Meter rebar locator is also capable
of locating non-ferrous
metals.
The
eddy current sensor was specifically designed to react with the
presence of currents on the outer surface of metal objects. It is
uninfluenced by small metal particles in the
concrete, whether the concrete is
fresh or hardened,
wet, or dry. The eddy
current sensor
also allows the unit to locate both ferrous as well as non-ferrous
metals in concrete; thereby finding not only steel reinforcing bars accurately, but also tendons,
copper tubing, conduit, and more.
The
latest in microprocessor technology not only conditions the signal from
the sensor
for more accurate and dependable results,
but also provides the user with the
information they need.
Built
in memory can store over 150 individual data points for later
processing.
Detection and Orientation of Rebar
The exact position and orientation
of rebar can be measured quickly and
accurately.
Rebar-free areas can be identified for coring, grinding, resurfacing, or
insertion of new machinery mountings.
The instrument can be used to inspect new structures for compliance with
specifications as well as old structures under modification.
Measurement of
Concrete Cover
The exact position and
orientation of rebar can be measured quickly and
accurately. Knowing the size of the rebar, concrete cover can be
detected and the distance between the concrete and the surface it will
appear in the easy to read display.
Location of
Metals
Locate any metals, as pipe,
flues, wire, and sheets embedded in
concrete, masonry, or wood.
Identification is possible to a depth of 10 inches.
Location of Pre-Stressed Cables
Locates the position of cables and
lost tendon splices in pre or post tension concrete products.
