The DeFelsko Coating Thickness Gauge, PosiTector 6000 with FLS probe, is devised to measure thick coats of intumescent paints on ferrous surfaces. It is also suited to measure other thick protective coatings on steel. Intumescent coatings are used to achieve passive fire protection for various applications such as firestopping, fireproofing, gaskets, and window casings. These coating applications are usually relevant for buildings, offshore constructions, ships, and aircraft. In many cases, such thick resin coating changes due to environmental influence, such as humidity, which reduces or negates their ability to function. Steel microstructure will change and weaken when exposed to a sudden increase in temperature like a building fire. It is believed that such damage led to the collapse of the World Trade Centre towers attacks of 9/11. On excessive heat, the intumescent coating will expand by 15 to 30 times in thickness, which then forms a thick layer of foam, thermally insulating the steel beam. As intumescent fire resistive coatings are rather expensive, you need a calibrated coating thickness gauge that can efficiently do the job which meets the prevailing standards.
With the FLS probe, the PosiTector 6000 will be able to measure coatings up to 38 mm (1.5 inches). The probe comes with a braided stainless steel cable. This makes it kink-proof, wear and cut-resistant. It also includes a hard shell case and 19 mm (750 mils) shim when you order it. This probe is compatible with PosiTector bodies with serial numbers greater than 700,000 and the new PosiTector SmartLink. The PosiTector 6000 offers a non-destructive testing solution for paint inspection, It is especially convenient for on-site applications. The probes of each DeFelsko Positector can be easily switched with different probes for multiple applications. The maintenance of the DeFelsko unit is highly practical. You can simply order new probes separately for cost-effective benefits. This benefit also allows you to have the total scrutiny of a non-destructive testing package for both indoors and outdoors. If you are looking for advanced interconnectivity and robust application with smartphones, DeFelsko also has the innovative PosiTector Smartlink series which supports the use of the PosiTector with iOS and Android devices.
