MMX Multi-Mode Thickness
Gauges
|
The MMXSeries
has arrived! These gauges are the
answer to both versatility
|
and
convenience in every way! The MMX
series defines versatility by combining
|
features like: Fast Scan, Alarm (audible/visual), and
data logging, along with
|
multi-mode for reading
through and eliminating the thickness of painted
|
or coated
materials. The MMXdemonstrates convenience by
making all these
|
features available
to the user with just the touch of a button.
|
|
Conveniently toggle between pulse-echo
mode (detect flaws & pits), and echo-echo mode (eliminate paint &
coating thickness), to cover all your inspection
|
requirements. No need to remove or allow for errors
due to paint and coatings.
|
The MMXgauges
use a highly damped dual element style transducer for both
|
modes, eliminating the need
to switch between transducer types.
|
|
The MMXgauges
are packaged in an all aluminum sealed case, making them rugged
|
and resistant
to the working environment—Dakota’s trademark.
