Profometer® Corrosion, Resipod & Torrent
Service life and durability assessment of reinforced concrete structures
The construction industry is rapidly moving towards performance based specifications for concrete durability of new structures; at the same time the assessing of service life of actual reinforced concrete elements is being a subject of increasing concern in the industry. Half-cell potential, concrete resistivity and concrete cover air permeability are the main and most widely accepted indicators of likelihood of corrosion and estimated durability of a concrete structure.
Proceq’s Profometer Corrosion, Resipod and Torrent instruments are designed and manufactured to assess the durability of concrete structures by measuring corrosion potential, concrete resistivity and permeability.
Profometer® Corrosion
Corrosion of reinforcing steel is the primary cause of deterioration of reinforced elements. The mapping of the electrical potential as measured on the surface of the concrete allows the detection of the spots with an increased likelihood of corrosion. It thus represents a primary tool for the maintenance and the structural assessment of concrete structures.
As the direct successor to the Proceq Canin+, Profometer Corrosion represents the most advanced corrosion instrument on the market. Thanks to its flexible concept, the user can upgrade anytime to the features and functions of the Profometer 6 AI cover meters.
