PoroTest 7
Even the smallest defect in surface coating – for example, through fissures, air bubbles or coating applied too thinly – can have catastrophic consequences. The PoroTest 7 operates with electrical voltage to detect microscopic defects (>20µm).
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
PoroTest 7: Greater safety for coated surfaces
The PoroTest 7 helps you to locate pores, fissures and other faults in non-conductive coatings on conductive basis material such as steel, aluminium, concrete, etc. It therefore provides optimal protection from:
- Internal and external corrosion
- Secondary damage due to minute coating defects
- Damage to highly sensitive foodstuffs
- Dangerous chemical reactions
- Cost-intensive re-coatings due to undetected defects
The PoroTest 7 is designed for use with boilers, pumps, tanks and other receptacles, but also for offshore installations, drilling rigs, ships or pipelines.
