Rebar Corrosion Rate Determination System
Gecor 6
Measures the rate of corrosion and other parameters of rebars. The Gecor 6 utilizes the polarization resistance technique to establish the corrosion rate. This is a quantitative measure of the amount of steel oxidizing at the time of measurement. Up to 100 readings can be stored in memory for later uploading to a Personal Computer.

Measures Wide Range of Anchor Strengths
Anchor Test System
Two models, each with two different gauge capabilities enable precision readings over a wide range of applications - from light to heavy duty loads. The standard system has a pull stroke of two inches with an option to extend to four inches. The longer pull stroke allows for complete extraction of most fixings in one simple operation. A load diffusion bridge and pyramid are available to keep reaction loads away from the anchor point.

Chloride Test System
C-CL-2000
The C-CL-2000 produces results on-site, within minutes that are accurate and comparable to expensive laboratory tests. It measures the electrochemical reaction of a weighted sample placed in an extraction liquid. It automatically shows a temperature compensated reading of percent of chlorides on its digital display. A wide range - from 0.002 to 2% chloride by weight - is covered.

Resonant Frequency Testing
E-Meter MK II™
Determines resonant frequencies of the three modes of vibration. Material characteristics such as Youngs Modulus of Elasticity, Modulus of Rigidity, Poissons Ratio and Damping Constant can be calculated. Frequencies are automatically scanned in one of four ranges. The system can determine flexural resonance of concrete under accelerated freezing and thawing cycles and aggressive environments.
