Description
The Multigauge 6000 UT Drone Thickness Gauge has been specifically designed to mount onto drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). The measurements are transmitted wirelessly in real time to a PC or laptop up to 500 metres away. The lightweight drone thickness gauge is also supplied with a plastic probe to further reduce weight.
The Tritex Multigauge 6000 Drone Thickness Gauge is the first commercially available dedicated thickness gauge for mounting onto a drone, developed over many years with lots of successful installations. It has been designed for easy integration, wirelessly transmitting accurate measurements, not including the coatings, up to 500m away. These are displayed on a dedicated software, called Communicator, where readings can be stored in a grid or string format, which is entirely customizable. The gauge is supplied with a lightweight plastic probe and optional probe holder and wet gel dispenser, controlled wirelessly through Communicator software, to accurately apply gel to the face of the probe when required.
Multiple Echo technology ignores coatings up to 6mm thick, therefore just the metal substrate is measured. All probes have Intelligent Probe Recognition (IPR), which automatically adjusts settings in the gauge at the same time as transmitting recognition data – the result is a perfectly matched probe and gauge for enhanced performance. Additionally, the Automatic Measurement Verification System (AMVS) ensures only true measurements are displayed, even on the most heavily corroded metals.
