Multigauge 5500 – Wall thickness measurement (free hand)

The Multigauge 5500 metal thickness tester has been designed for hands free use when climbing on staging, scaffolding, ladders or when accessing by rope. Whether it’s onboard a ship, on large storage tanks, climbing on top of a road tanker or carrying out inspections underneath a bridge, the 5500 will measure the thickness with ease.  The gauge uses multiple echo to ignore coatings up to 6mm thick. It can be mounted onto a waist belt or chest harness when using rope access. The top display ensures the measurements are clearly visible, even in difficult gauging and lighting conditions. A protective leather case is also available.

The gauge uses a multiple echo to ignore coatings up to 6 mm thick. All probes feature Intelligent Probe Recognition (IPR), which automatically adjusts the settings in the gauge as the recognition data is transmitted – resulting in a perfectly tuned probe and gauge for improved performance. In addition, the Automatic Measurement Verification System (AMVS) ensures that only true readings are displayed, even for heavily corroded metals.
