The Dakota NDT ZX-5 DL Data Logging Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge is a robust and feature-rich instrument designed for accurate ultrasonic thickness measurement and data recording in a wide range of industrial and field applications. This gauge builds upon the capabilities of standard ultrasonic thickness measurement by incorporating a built-in data logger for efficient storage and management of inspection data.

The ZX-5 DL utilizes ultrasonic pulse-echo technology to measure the thickness of various materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics, glass, and composites, from only one side. It offers field calibration for all materials, allowing users to optimize the gauge for specific materials based on known thickness or sound velocity. The gauge also features a high-speed scanning mode that enables rapid thickness evaluation over an area, capturing the minimum thickness value during the scan. The backlit display ensures clear visibility of readings in all lighting conditions.

The "DL" designation signifies the inclusion of a comprehensive data logging system, allowing users to store thousands of thickness readings with associated parameters for later analysis and reporting. This feature enhances inspection efficiency and provides valuable documentation of material condition.
