Tritex NDT Multigauge 5700 Datalogger Multiple Echo Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
The Tritex NDT Multigauge 5700 Datalogger is a general purpose metal thickness gauge that stores measurements within the gauge. Templates can be set up as a grid, a string or a combination of both, which suits ship hull surveys, pipelines, pilings and tank inspections.
Data transfer between the gauge and the PC is wireless through an RF transceiver. Tritex Communicator software acts as the interface: it builds templates with wizards, displays live readings and saves results in a standard .txt report format. The 5700 is available as the standard version with a short range (10 m) transceiver or the 5700 LR with a long range (500 m) transceiver.
