2 Product Description

2.1 Model S (Basic Unit)

The PROFOMETER 5+ rebar locator is a lightweight,
compact device for the non-destructive location of rebars
and for the measurement of concrete cover and bar
diameters.
The measuring method is based on the eddy-current
principle with pulse-induction.

Indicating device

Universal probe

Fig. 2.1 Model S

The basic unit can perform the following functions:

- Locating rebars

- Measuring concrete covers

- Storing individual cover values and statistical
evaluation

- Determining the bar diameters

2.2 Model SCANLOG

Indicating device

ScanCar

Universal probe

Fig. 2.2 Model SCANLOG

The SCANLOG rebar locator is identical to model S and
comprises the following additional functions:

- «CyberScan» function for displaying the concrete cover

- «Measure with Grid» function for grey-scale display of
the concrete cover

- ScanCar probe carriage with integral path measuring
device for scanning the rebars
