Unleash Precision Thickness Measurement with the Dakota NDT ZX-6 Series
The Dakota NDT ZX-6 Series Multi-Echo Thickness Gauge redefines accuracy and reliability in material thickness measurement. Powered by a high-speed 120MHz FPGA timing system and a robust 150 volt square wave pulser, this gauge delivers exceptional performance for both flaw detection and accurate thickness readings, even through paint and coatings.
Featuring both Pulse-Echo (flaw) and Echo-Echo (thru-paint) measurement modes, the ZX-6 series provides versatility for various inspection needs. The Echo-Echo mode eliminates the need to remove paint or coatings, saving valuable time and resources while ensuring accurate substrate thickness readings. The Pulse-Echo mode allows for standard thickness measurements and basic flaw detection capabilities.
The adjustable gain, ranging from 40 to 52dB in precise 3dB steps (vlow, low, med, high, vhi), allows users to optimize the signal for a wide variety of materials and conditions. The integrated Time Dependent Gain (TDG) further enhances measurement accuracy by compensating for material attenuation over the sound path.
Ease of use is paramount with the selectable manual or auto zero functions, ensuring quick and accurate calibration. The ZX-6 series is designed to work seamlessly with dual element transducers (1-10MHz options), providing flexibility for different material types and thickness ranges.
Built for challenging environments, the ZX-6 features a low temperature custom LCD display that remains clear and readable even at extreme temperatures down to -22°F / -30°C. USB-C connectivity ensures modern and efficient data transfer and potential charging capabilities. The gauge is also CDC compatible for serial over USB, with optional serial RS232 or Bluetooth modules (ZX-6) available for expanded connectivity.
For comprehensive data management, the ZX-6 DL model boasts a substantial 32 megabit flash memory for storing a large number of thickness readings. The rugged IP65 protection rating ensures durability and reliable operation in dusty and wet conditions.
Backed by Dakota NDT's commitment to quality, the ZX-6 Series comes with an impressive 5 year limited warranty, providing peace of mind and long-term value.
