Description:
Resipod Concrete Resistivity Meter is a fully integrated 4-point Wenner probe, designed to measure the electrical resistivity of concrete in a completely non-destructive test. It is the most accurate instrument available, extremely fast and stable and packaged in a robust, waterproof housing.
Concrete surface resistivity meter provides information about the state of concrete structure. It is directly linked to the likelihood of corrosion and the corrosion rate. A direct correlation between resistivity and chloride diffusion rate has been indicated.
The applications include
- Estimation of the likelihood of corrosion
- Indication of corrosion rate
- Correlation to chloride permeability
- On site assessment of curing efficiency
- Determination of zonal requirements for cathodic protection systems
- Identification of wet and dry areas in concrete structure
- Indication of variations in the water/cement ratios within a concrete structure
- Identification of area within a structure most susceptible to chloride penetration
- Correlation to water permeability of rock
