DM5E corrosion thickness gauges A range of high-performance, reliable and easy-to-use instruments

The DM5E family represents the highest standard of portable corrosion monitoring thickness gauges from Waygate Technologies. It offers significant improvement in performance over previous corrosion thickness gauges in terms of better thickness measurement stability and repeatability at normal and elevated temperatures. It has been designed for operation in the harshest working environments, performing wall thickness measurements on pipelines, pressure vessels and storage tanks in the oil and gas industry, as well as in the petrochemical and power generation sectors.

Choose from three levels of functionality DM5E Basic, DM5E, or DM5E DL The rugged housing of the DM5E Basic is common to all versions. It is ergonomically designed with a weight of just 223g, including its AA batteries, which allow up to 60 hours of operation. The basic version is specified to EN 15317 and features an LCD data display, which is backlit to be visible in all lighting conditions. Instrument operation is carried out with one hand via a user-friendly interface. This is a sealed, watertight and dust-proof membrane keypad, which features a minimum of function keys and arrow keys.

User-friendly operator interface All versions of the DM5E have the same user-friendly operator keypad interface. This has a central mode key, a calibration/on/off key, two function arrow keys to activate and set functional control and four arrow keys for adjusting parameter values and for navigating through the intuitive single-level menu. The keypad allows access to all calibration, set-up and measurement display modes of the instrument. With the DL version, a file display mode allows users to create and store thickness readings in files. All calibration is menu-driven and the operator is guided...

Thickness measurement under coating Both the DM5E and the DM5E DL offer dual-multi measurement. Virtually all components and structures subjected to thickness measurement will have some kind of protective coating. Such coatings, including paint, contribute significant error to thickness measurements of underlying metal walls when using conventional methods. In addition, the removal of coatings, and their subsequent reapplication, involves considerable cost and time. With the field-proven dual-multi feature there is no need to remove any protective coating. It is only necessary to select dual-multi...
