StratoTest 4500 C
The handheld instrument measures the thickness of refractory linings in kilns used in cement and brick production. Instead of the traditional method of drilling approx. 200 holes for inspection, the StratoTest only requires one single borehole for calibration and from that point on measures the lining thickness non-invasively.
The electromagnetic measuring process is non-destructive and without danger for the operator. StratoTest 4500 C allows to determine the lining thickness of cement, dolomite, magnesite or fireclay bricks in rotary kilns quickly and thus helps to significantly reduce inspection times and effort
We are here to assist
finding the best solution for your individual measuring task as well as to answer all questions on coating thickness measurement in general and also when it comes to special topics, on calibration, quality requirements and many more. It is our pleasure to share our experience of more than 75 years in coatings industry with our customers.
Product infomation
StratoTest 4500 C
Refractory bricks undergo degradation resulting in a decrease in mechanical properties. In order to monitor the thickness of these bricks, StratoTest 4500 C is the ideal tool to determine the state of the lining in industrial furnaces and rotary kilns.
StratoTest works on the electromagnetic measurement principle using the metal of the kiln shell as a measuring reflector. When the disc-shaped probe approaches the kiln shell, its electromagnetic files change depending on the distance to the metal.
One single borehole is sufficient for the StratoTest 4500 C to be adjusted to the lining thickness by an individual calibration option of the gauge. Subsequently, the entire lining can be measured with the gauge non-destructively.
The handheld probe measures a lining thickness of up to 300 mm.
