Proceq Profometer 4 Manual Access

Proceq Profometer 4 (also known as the Profometer 4+) is a legacy non-destructive testing (NDT) instrument used for the detection of reinforcing bars (rebars) and the measurement of concrete cover. While newer models like the Profometer 600 series have superseded it, the Profometer 4

Locating Rebar: Sweep the probe slowly across the concrete surface. The signal strength will increase as you approach a bar; the point of maximum signal strength indicates the rebar is directly beneath the probe's center. proceq profometer 4 manual

: Identify bar orientation by moving the probe until you find the minimum cover reading. The probe should be parallel to the rebar for the most accurate depth measurement. Grid Scanning Proceq Profometer 4 (also known as the Profometer

C. Estimating Rebar Diameter

This function is more complex and requires measuring the cover depth first. >-200 mV → Low corrosion probability (<10%) -200

• >-200 mV → Low corrosion probability (<10%)
• -200 to -350 mV → Uncertain corrosion
• < -350 mV → High corrosion probability (>90%)

Feature: Rebar Detection and Cover Thickness Measurement

• Accurate Measurements: The Profometer 4 provides precise measurements of the concrete cover thickness over rebar and can locate rebars without causing damage to the structure. This is crucial for assessing the durability and integrity of concrete structures.
• Advanced Technology: Utilizes advanced electromagnetic principles to detect the rebar and measure cover thickness accurately, making it reliable for a wide range of construction and civil engineering applications.
• User-Friendly Interface: The device typically comes with an intuitive interface that allows users to easily navigate through its functions, making on-site measurements efficient and straightforward.
• Data Storage and Reporting: It often includes features for storing measurement data, which can be crucial for generating comprehensive reports on the condition of structures, facilitating maintenance planning and quality control during construction.

1. Rebar Locator (Cover Meter): Measures concrete cover depth and rebar diameter.
2. Corrosion Analyzer: Measures half-cell potentials to identify active corrosion risk.
